Maria identifies as a “whatever,” which she explained to us in a 2015 interview:
“There are so, so many labels and traditional labels just don’t seem to capture the reality of who we are in our time. I think there are so many more labels to explore and the LGBT community which I’m proud to be a part of.”
In other sad news, Ingrid Nilsen announced she and Hannah Hart are no longer romantically involved.
