“You know what it never was. That Serious. It was never that serious. Quite frankly, it would never be that serious.”
He then shared more about him coming out, writing:
“When I finally told my friends and family I was gay after being scared in the closet for 18 years and all they said was ‘we know.’”

The 20-year-old Canadian actor further expressed,
“I was just really proud of him.”
He noted that the cast of ‘Stranger Things’ are his “family,” but they are “not on everyday-text vibes in any way.”
“Do you text your cousins every day? Probably not. We’ll talk on each other’s birthdays. We’ll talk once in a while. But in the same way that family works, if I ever needed anything, they’re there,” Wolfhard expressed.
The two actors’ characters has a ship called “Byler,” and they became one of the most popular shipped couples in ‘Stranger Things.’ Moreover, Schnapp previously confirmed that Will “is gay, and he does love Mike (Wolfhard).”
