In a 2017 interview with The Sunday Times, Smith said they feel "just as much woman as I am man."

In a conversation with actress Jameela Jamil in March, Sam Smith talked about their gender identity as well as other topics relating to body image.

"I'm not male or female. I think I float somewhere in between," Smith said during the interview, which was part of Jamil's Instagram show "I Weigh Interviews."

The Grammy-winning singer said they realized they were non-binary when they learned about the words "non-binary" and "genderqueer."

Smith later took to Instagram to announce that they've officially decided to change their pronouns, despite understanding "there will be many mistakes and mis gendering."

"After a lifetime of being at war with my gender I've decided to embrace myself for who I am, inside and out," he wrote in a lengthy caption. "I'm so excited and privileged to be surrounded by people that support me in this decision but I've been very nervous about announcing this because I care too much about what people think but f--- it!

"All I ask is you please please try. I hope you can see me like I see myself now."
