Personal life

In January 1999 she revealed that she was bisexual and had been sexually involved with women since she was 21.[2] At the time her Bill character was having a lesbian fling while working undercover in a prison. "My mother told the whole town I was a lesbian and she was proud of me. My girlfriend was accepted as part of the family."[3] The relationship lasted two years. A four-year relationship with Roger May (b. 1966) ended around the same time that Joy revealed her bisexuality.[4]

She is the great-niece of Tottenham Hotspur legend Bill Nicholson.[5]
