Ghanaian fashion stylist and influencer, Charlie Dior has broken his silence on the Girls Aloud podcast, addressing persistent rumours about his sexual orientation.

The conversation, which many had eagerly anticipated, took a reflective turn when the topic came up.

During the podcast, one of the hosts directly asked Dior about the speculation surrounding his sexuality—a subject that has often shadowed his public image.

Though he is known for his confidence and outspoken personality, Dior’s initial reaction was visible discomfort. After pausing briefly, he clarified that this was a boundary he preferred to maintain.

“I don’t think Ghana is ready for that conversation,” Dior stated, his voice measured but firm. He explained that his reluctance was not rooted in fear or personal insecurity but stemmed from an understanding of the societal context in which he operates.

Ghana, a nation with deeply conservative cultural norms, has often struggled with open discussions about sexual orientation and identity.

Dior elaborated, saying, “It’s not about me; it’s about the readiness of the society I’m part of. I won’t have a conversation that people aren’t prepared to handle.”

Despite his refusal to confirm or deny the rumours, Dior emphasized that he is unbothered by the ongoing chatter about his private life.

“People will always have something to say,” he remarked with a smile. “But that doesn’t define who I am or my work.”
