Styles has brought a rainbow flag on stage before at previous shows. He’s also been outspoken that he believes gay rights aren’t politics but “fundamental.”

Some fans also believe Styles is hinting at being bisexual on his new track “Medicine,” which he performs on tour.

“The boys and the girls are here I mess around with them / And I’m okay with it / I’m coming down/ I figured out I kinda like it / And when I sleep I’m gonna dream of how you tasted,” reads the lyrics of the track.
