  • For example, one X post (archived) shared Nov. 18, 2024, helped fuel the rumor by stating: Sam Smith just came out & announced he's "self partnered" meaning they/them are in a relationship itself. Here is Sam Smith before & after Hollywood. That post received 1.3 million views as of this writing. Not everyone in the comments section celebrated the alleged claim regarding Smith's supposed relationship status. One X user wrote, "He was normal before???? Personally I'd rather be 'in a relationship with myself' than in a relationship with the wrong person though. It just means you're focusing on yourself/your needs rather than anyone else's," while another responded, "I honestly wonder if the government makes them say stupid stuff like that to show their team players." However, another response in the comments section highlighted the satirical nature of the original post, stating: "This Is Satire. Wakefield News (a Satire Page) First Posted It, and Other Pages (e.g., the British Feed Meme Page) Amplified It." Indeed, the story about Smith announcing they are "self-partnered" originated from Wakefield News, a self-described satire Facebook account known for crafting fictional articles. Wakefield News shared a post on Nov. 17, 2024, titled "Sam Smith has clarified that he is SELF-PARTNERED which means that they is not single but he is actually in a relationship with themselves." (Wakefield News/Facebook) Moreover, Smith has not made any recent announcements regarding being "self-partnered," nor have they released any statements about their sexuality or supposed relationship status on any of their official social media accounts, and no reputable news outlets reported on this claim. Contrary to the rumors they are "self-partnered," for two years Smith has reportedly been in a relationship with womenswear designer Christian Cowan. In May 2024, the couple revealed their romance when they attended the Met Gala together in New York City. Snopes has previously reported on Smith, including the unfounded claim that they shared a "connection" to late financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was convicted of sex trafficking. For background, here is why we alert readers to rumors created by sources that call their output humorous or satirical.
