In the past Laurel identified as bisexual but her sexual identity evolved over time. In an interview with Diva Magazine she said: “Thing is, I know that by backing off that label, it could look like I’m afraid. But, as an older woman I’m very clear about my sexuality. I’m more solid in my identity, I never question it. But I’m also a very open person, maybe naively open… I’m comfortable in my skin. I don’t need a bunch of smoke and mirrors. I consider myself straight, I guess, but… I hate that label too. I hate all labels!”
