<\/p>\nSam Smith was spotted looking glammed up in a leopard-print miniskirt as they headed out in Sydney with their boyfriend, Christian Cowan.<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old singer, who identifies as non-binary and uses they\/them pronouns, also opted for a baggy black t-shirt and accessorised with a silver necklace and hoop earrings. <\/p>\n
The loved-up Stay with Me singer was photographed hand in hand with beau Christian, 27, as they walked down Sydney's famous Oxford Street.<\/p>\n
The fashion designer opted for a more laid-back look, donning a white T-shirt, denim shorts, trainers, and draped a grey sweatshirt over their shoulders. <\/p>\n
Sam is currently in Australia as part of their Gloria Tour, with the Unholy hitmaker recently performing in Melbourne. <\/p>\n
The star appeared to be enjoying some downtime with their other half before their upcoming concerts this week in Brisbane and Auckland.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
As usual, the singer has been making a statement with their outfits on stage, performing the last concert in a gold corset, shiny gold trousers, and huge platform heels. <\/p>\n
It comes just months after the singer disappointed fans by cancelling the rest of their UK tour after revealing they were suffering from a vocal cord injury that could cause lasting damage. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Before dating Christian, Sam had a high-profile relationship with 13 Reasons Why actor Brandon Flynn. <\/p>\n
The I\u2019m Not the Only One singer was also romantically linked to TV star Charlie King and soap actor Andy Newton Lee.<\/p>\n
Sam previously talked about why they don\u2019t worry about the gender of a person when it comes to falling in love.<\/p>\n
"I've never really kind of played by the rule book. I love people, and whoever I fall for, that's who I fall for. I don't know who that's going to be," Sam told The Sun.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow I don't know what gender they will be, to be quite honest, and that's a freeing thing – to not be limited to one category of person. I just fall in love with whoever I fall in love with."<\/p>\n
Speaking about their own journey with not identifying as one specific gender, Sam explained that they do see themselves as a \u2018gay man.\u201d<\/p>\n
They told GQ UK: \u201cThat\u2019s never really been me. I\u2019ve always felt queer. I\u2019ve always felt non-binary trans. My whole life.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd it wasn\u2019t until I had to sit in interviews every day and tell people my story again and again and again that I realised this narrative that was being created was only a small fraction of who I was."<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
