Gracie McGraw celebrated Pride Month 2025 by embracing her sexuality and inspiring new fans.
The 28-year-old daughter of country music stars Tim McGraw and Faith Hill made headlines with a Tuesday, June 2, Instagram Story that revealed she is queer. “Everyone get more gay now,” the post read, accompanied by multiple exclamation points. “Happy Freaking Pride. I love being queer.”
The online declaration, which coincides with month-long celebrations and commemorations that honor the LGBTQIA+ community, was the first time Gracie publicly addressed her sexuality.
While her parents, Tim, 58, and Hill, 57, are yet to publicly respond to Gracie’s announcement, Gracie joined Tim onstage during his Nashville show on May 31, helping the music veteran sing his track “Last Dollar (Fly Away)” just as she did in the 2007 studio version.
