In a candid interview with Reddit users, Nick Jonas recently spilled the beans on why he used to wear a purity ring – and why he stopped.
“I came from an incredibly religious home,” Jonas said. “Growing up, my dad was a pastor…we were highly scrutinized as a family within the church.” He went on to say that he first began wearing the purity ring at age 15 “without a full understanding” of what it would mean.
When asked specifically about why he stopped wearing the ring, the singer was open about his choices.
“I started making my own choices, fell in love with somebody, made the choice to have sex with them,” he explained.
