Back in December, Wiseman did a Zoom interview over on Forbes.com where her sound went out just as the interviewer mentioned that many of her co-stars were members of the LGBTQ community. Many thought that in that "Zoom hiccup" moment she might have been saying "I'm not straight", and now she confirmed that she did in fact meant just that. “I just didn’t want to say I’m straight when I’m not!”

Prior to her marriage to Discovery co-star Noah Averbach-Katz, Wiseman said that she “dated and loved people of all genders.”

She also clarified why she kept quiet about the topic: “I never liked it when straight-presenting women dominated conversations about bisexuality/pansexuality when I was with women, so I try not to do it now, but I also don’t want it to feel like I’m hiding anything because I’m queer and proud!”
