'Stranger Things' Star Noah Schnapp Shares Joyous Photos From 'First Pride'
Noah Schnapp couldn’t be happier celebrating his “first pride.”
The Stranger Things actor—who came out publicly in January—shared photos from a pride event over the weekend alongside his supportive friends and family.
In the first shot, the 18-year-old smiled up at the sky while standing in a fountain in Washington Square Park, New York, surrounded by other members and supporters of the LGBTQIA+ community. He donned white pants, paired with a rainbow-colored shirt that read “Straight Outta the Closet,” along with a colorful headband.
The second photo in the gallery saw him planting a loving smooch on his mother Karine Schnapp’s cheek, who was also dressed for the occasion rocking a hot pink one-piece with a white fishnet and ripped jeans.
In the third and final photo, Noah is in the pool, jumping onto Katy Totah’s back, who is seemingly his friend from Columbia University.
Plenty of loving notes poured into his comment section, with one fan writing, “Yess!! Welcome????.”
“Happy Pride ??????,” 13 Reasons Why actress Katherine Langford wrote, while another user added, “LOVE IS LOVEEE ??????????????????”
“HELP THE SHIRT ?? i love it so much happy pride ??,” someone else chimed in.
Noah’s mother also shared a carousel of photos from the event, including the one seen in her son’s gallery and a few other family selfies that featured his dad, Mitchell Schnapp, who wore rainbow wristbands.
His friend, Sophie Levy, also shared a photo from the pool as she cuddled up to Noah and Katy for the shot.
At the beginning of this year, Noah took to TikTok revealing that he recently came out as gay to his friends and family, joking, "I guess I’m more similar to Will than I thought," in the caption—a reference to part of character Will Byers’ storyline in season four of the hit Netflix series.
“When I finally told my friends and family I was gay after being scared in the closet for 18 years and all they said was 'we know,’” he also revealed at the time.
