Connor is possibly single. He plays Nick Nelson who eventually becomes Charlie Spring’s boyfriend. However, in real life, there is no hint of him being in a relationship even on his social media pages.
As for his sexuality, Kit has refrained from talking about his sexual orientation even in interviews. In the series Heartstopper, he well represented male bisexuality and the challenges that he was able to encounter.
He told Metro in an interview that;
“I think male bisexuality is even less represented [than female or non-binary]. […] It’s a real honor to be able to play Nick because it’s such an underrepresented kind of character, really,”
“I think the representation in modern-day media is getting better but there are never enough queer stories being shown on screen.” He said in another interview.
