“My #comingoutday as #queer #gaypride #blackqueerlivesmatter,” he wrote in the video’s caption. Continuing the caption, he stated that he decided to come out today.

Additionally, he wrote that he had been himself in private but was hiding in public as he was afraid of the damage it would have done to his career. But, now he had stayed behind the closet for a long time, refused to prioritize fear over truth and hide.

His exact words in the caption read: “I decided to COME OUT today. It suddenly hit me that in private I’m myself and in public, I’ve been hiding. Because I was afraid of the damage it would do to my career. I refuse to give a f**k about that anymore. I refuse to prioritize fear over truth. I don’t wish to hide anymore. Here is my coming out of the closet video.”

The Emerald City actor ended his caption using the hashtag “#blackqueerlivesmatter.”

He Is Allegedly Single

Although the English actor has come out of the closet, he certainly has kept the details of his romantic life behind the curtains.

There are no details of the actor currently being married, having a wife, relishing a relationship, dating anyone, or having anyone as his boyfriend or partner at present – nor in the past, for that matter.

He has also kept his romantic life away from his social media handles (mainly Instagram). In his Instagram handle, he has only shared pictures that are related to himself or his acting career, or his family.

Thus, his social media profiles don’t give any hint on if he is dating anyone. As a result, there is only one conclusion, which is, Oparei is allegedly single, as of this writing.

Dacre Montgomery’s Talks About His Younger Sister And Parents

It is undeniable that Stranger Things has left a huge impact on its fans’ life —  especially the characters and actors on the show.

Dacre Montgomery joined the cast of the show in 2017 as Billy Hargrove. Hargrove was a half-brother to Sadie Sink’s character, Max Mayfield.

Hargrove was a horrible sibling to his sister on the show. This led many to question how Dacre was in real life and if he had siblings as well.

Many asked if Dacre was like his character in Stanger Things or if he was a good brother to his siblings if he had any. Like in the show, the actor has one sister named Saskia Montgomery.

Here is everything we know about the Montgomery siblings. 

Dacre Montgomery and his sister

Dacre has one younger sister named Saskia. While showing off ten things he could not live without to GQ, the actor revealed that his sister was 12 years younger than him.

At the time of writing, Dacre is 28 years old. That means that his sister is approximately 16 or 17 years old. 

Despite their age gap, the actor shares a special bond with his sister. Dacre revealed that one of the things he could not live without is a small owl figurine gifted by Saskia.

Both Montgomery siblings have the same figurine they keep with themselves all the time. Saskia gave two owls to her brother after he started traveling around because of his work.

One was to keep beside her bed when Dacre was away, and one was for Dacre to keep. The actor sympathized with his sister and said it was difficult for her to understand why her brother was away most of the time.

So, he always kept the owl with him as a token of love from his younger sibling. 

Dacre Montgomery and his parents

In another GQ video, Dacre confirmed that he is a direct descendant of Charles II of England, who reigned as king of Scotland from 1649 to 1651 and of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1660–1685.

This line of lineage comes through Anne Lennard, Countess of Sussex, a daughter of Charles. His mother’s side of the family, the Dacre Barons, is where he got his name.

Not much is known about Dacre’s parents. However, he revealed in an interview with Teen Vogue in 2017 that both of them were involved in the film industry.

However, they worked behind the camera, unlike Dacre. He said, “I always wanted to get into acting. I’ve been pursuing that for a long time. My parents worked in the film industry, but they both worked behind the camera, so I like to think that I have a really good understanding of how all the parts of the puzzle come together to make a film or TV show.”

He added how it was important to note that acting in front of the camera does not make a project. It is necessary to have respect for people who work behind the camera and make the project complete.

“It’s not just the actor in front of the camera. And it’s important to have respect for all those people that work behind the camera,” he noted.
