Stephen teams up with a male actor for the scenes in the video for the next single, “Better”.

The rest of the lads are paired with girls but Stephen wanted things to be different and honest.

He told BBC Newsbeat “For me, it’s just me being me and I don’t think there should be a real big issue about the whole thing anyway.I just think it’s just a beautiful video and I think it works superbly for the song”

The original plan was to have their own partners in the video but they eventually decided on actors for the parts.The decision to include a gay couple in the video was one that the whole band agreed with.

Stephen said: “I came out in 1999 and it was a big issue at the time and I don’t think I could have done this video without having a guy in the video.

“I think it’s important for me to be true to myself.

“The lads were saying, ‘You’ve got to do this’. They were pushing saying, ‘This would be fantastic’. It’s the first of its kind. That’s why I went for it.”

Let us know what you think.
