The former child star Mara Wilson, who starred in both Matilda and Mrs Doubtfire, has announced that she is bisexual in a series of posts after the mass killings at a gay nightclub in Orlando.

Wilson shared a post of herself at a gay club at age 18 in a series of posts announcing that she identifies as queer and bi.

She said the LGBT community had "always felt like home, especially a few years later when I, uh, learned something about myself".

She then confirmed to fans that she is bisexual.
