British pop singer sensation Sam Smith may have just revealed some very intimate photos of him and his significant other, Brandon Flynn, on Instagram by posting for what is now considered by many to be a very adorable photo. This is quite a rare occurrence for the two to share intimate material such as this on social media in general, which gives fans an idea of just how incredibly excited the two must be to spend the holidays with one another. 

The picture in question shows Flynn and Smith posing casually together in an elevator while wearing matching unicorn hats. The photo was posted by the 24-year-old Flynn, who captioned it with "Rare sighting in London." Given that Smith has been infamously known for keeping the details of his life as private as possible, his fans naturally expressed their approval and adoration on social media shortly after they had seen the picture of the two together. 

Despite being a member of the gay community, it is clear that Smith's sexuality has not turned off fans in the slightest, as he gets constant support of and approval from people everywhere. Reports state that the picture is Flynn and Smith's way of coming out as a couple, since it is officially the first public photo that they have released so far. Fans may be familiar with Flynn from the hit Netflix show "13 Reasons Why." 

Flynn shortly posted another picture of Smith in what appears to be a coffee house, and it depicts Smith to be casually sitting down while wearing a whimsically large pair of glasses with its rims in the shape of comically large snowflakes. It is notable to mention that this news should not be surprising to those who closely follow Smith's career, especially since he was caught with Flynn kissing back in October. 

On top of that, Smith confirmed his relationship with Flynn at the "Ellen DeGeneres Show," wherein he shared his thoughts on officially coming out just before he released his latest album titled "The Thrill of it All."
