Music is his life! But is he Gay?
Well let’s begin with an interview he gave to the Guardian, he mentioned:
“Music is my passion, this is my love, and this is all I do. I don't have a family, I don't have the pressures of kids, and I live for it. My thing is the relationship with the music and with the artists and, bottom line, with the audience - that keeps my energy level to where it's at. I am not tired of it, the hours are long but whatever, man. If I worked nine to five in a bank not only would those hours be long, but I'd be bloody worried about my job right now.”
Married, Wife, or Girlfriend?
This shows the affection and attachment he’s got towards music. Moreover, he has also mentioned that he has no family which clears gives a sign that he is neither married nor has kids, and It was not revealed that he has to date with a girlfriend.
