Caleb Shomo dropped the news on Instagram that he is proudly gay after years of private struggle. His wife of nearly 14 years, Fleur Shomo, shared her own emotional post about their split. The May 23 announcement sent ripples through the metalcore scene.
Caleb, 33, wrote that he felt compelled to address speculation and said, “I am a proudly gay man.” He opened up about burying feelings with alcohol for a decade and how sobriety helped him reconcile with his sexuality. The Beartooth singer also teased that his upcoming album Pure Ecstasy will let him express himself more fully than ever before.
