Anna Camp is "really proud to be bisexual" even though being open about her private life felt "scary".

The Pitch Perfect star, 43, unveiled her relationship with Jade Whipkey when they walked the red carpet together at the Los Angeles premiere of her movie Bride Hard last summer and Anna has now admitted going public with such a personal matter initially felt like a "risk".

During an appearance on the I've Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario podcast, Anna explained: "As a 43-year-old woman, I am very proud of myself for owning my sexuality at this age. am a very strong person for doing it in somewhat of a spotlight with people criticizing and judging and making assumptions. I'm really proud to be bisexual ...

"[It's] a major evolution in my 40s and not being afraid of it ... Sure, there are times I feel like I am taking a risk and this is scary and I'm doing it in a public forum.

"But to say: 'No, I only get one life and I want to be happy,' that's what life is all about."

She went on to add: "You think you've got this idea of who you are and that's how your life is going to go. And that's happened to me several times in my life, where I thought that I knew what was happening.

"And it could have stopped in that way. I could have settled. I could have said, no, I'm done evolving ... [My goal is] to continue to evolve and to learn."

The actress was previously married Scrubs star Michael Mosley between 2010 and 2013 and she went on to wed her Pitch Perfect co-star Skylar Astin, 37, in 2016. The marriage broke down and they split in early 2019.

Anna previously defended her relationship with Jade, who is 18 years her junior, and insisted her partner is "far more mature" than any of the men her age she's previously dated.

In a post on Instagram, she wrote: "Thought I'd jump on here ... and just sayI've dated men exactly my age and Jade is FAR more mature than any of them. "We have more in common than anyone else I've ever dated and can literally talk about anything and everything." She added of the online trolls: "Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I'm wishing everyone well. Especially this Pride month."

The pair previously answered questions about their dating history in a TikTok question-and-answer video posted in February, 2025.

In the clip, Anna opened up about her worst date, saying: "I left a date once because a guy was like 45 minutes late and I stayed and waited.

"Then he said that I was prettier in a movie than I was in person, because I'm an actor, and I was like: 'Okay, bye'."

Anna then asked Jade: "What about you, babe?" and she replied: "I think it was the only date I ever went on with a boy. And he kept calling me 'f*****' the whole time."

When asked what they "expect" during a date with a man, Anna replied: "I don't expect anything. Not anymore because I'm dating a woman, and it's great."
