Missy Higgins and her ex-girlfriend detail the pressure they felt to keep their relationship out of the public eye early on in her career


Australian singer-songwriter Missy Higgins has opened up about the pressure she felt to keep her same-sex relationship a secret amid her growing popularity.

Appearing on ABC's Australian Story on Monday, the Sound Of White hitmaker, 40, revealed how she had been in a 'secret' relationship with her tour manager Emma Goodland early in her career. Missy, who revealed that her relationship with Emma ended during the recording of her second album On A Clear Night, added that she was amazed with how much easier it was for young people today to express their sexuality. The singer, who topped the charts with her hit Scar back in 2004, first set tongues wagging about her sexuality when she told Rolling Stone magazine in 2005 that 'everyone is a bit bisexual.'
