Connor Storrie has not publicly labeled his sexuality, and he has explicitly said he wants to keep his real-life dating and sexuality private, so it is not accurate or fair to state that he is gay (or any other label) as a fact.

What Connor Storrie Has Said

  • In recent interviews about Heated Rivalry , Connor Storrie said he loves being part of a queer story and community but wants “a little bit of separation” between himself and his character.
  • He has clearly stated that who he dates and sleeps with is something he is going to keep to himself and not define publicly.

Why People Ask “Is He Gay?”

  • Connor plays Ilya, a bisexual hockey player in the HBO series Heated Rivalry , a very romantic LGBTQIA+ storyline with intense chemistry between the leads, which naturally fuels speculation.
  • Fans see his on- and off-screen closeness with co-star Hudson Williams, plus viral clips and interviews, and some assume this reflects his real-life sexuality, even though neither actor has confirmed any label.

Industry & Privacy Context

  • There is an ongoing debate about whether only queer actors should play queer roles, but many point out that forcing actors to disclose their sexuality for casting would be harmful and could push people to come out before they feel safe.
  • Connor’s choice to keep his sexuality private fits into this wider conversation: he focuses on telling an authentic queer story while keeping his personal life off-limits, which many see as a reasonable boundary.

So, What Can Be Said Now?

  • Public information right now is: Connor Storrie has not come out with any specific label, and reports describe him as deliberately vague about his sexuality.
  • Any claim that “Connor Storrie is gay” (or straight, or bi, etc.) is speculation, not confirmed fact, and respecting his privacy means accepting that he’ll share that part of his life only if and when he chooses.
