The That’s So Raven actress told Oprah she had always been attracted to both men and women.

“I knew when I was 12 – I was looking at everything.”

“I’m an American, I’m not an African American. I’m an American,” she said.

She added: “I’m in an amazing, happy relationship with my partner – a woman. I am proud to be what I am and who I am.
