He said: “For me, it’s a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. I think it celebrates our history, where we’re going and how far we’ve come.”
Despite celebrating love this pride month, Johannes has confessed that he’s struggled to find love of his own.
When asked about how his own search for love is going, the dancer explained that he thought he didn’t deserve love.
He said: “Due to internalised homophobia for the longest time, I thought that I did not deserve love. And it’s a journey and the fact that I’m here at a place of acceptance and abundance, I feel like I’m ready so we’ll see.”
Now, the dancer admitted that he’s ‘ready’ to look for love again.
