AceShowbiz - Brooks Laich has revealed he is keen to learn more about his "intimacy and sexuality" in 2020, after his wife Julianne Hough hit headlines when she revealed that she's "not straight."

The 36-year-old professional ice hockey forward shared a list of his hopes for the coming year in a post on his Instagram Stories, including his aim to "learn more about intimacy and my sexuality."

Other resolutions included Brooks wanting to be "open to all things and present in my relationships" and "stepping into a new version of me."

Reflecting further about his aims for 2020 in an Instagram post, the "How Men Think" podcaster explained to his followers, "I'm always working on becoming a better man, a better version of me, and it always starts with a vision of who that person is."

"Knowing where I am, and where I want to go, are equally important. It's a new decade coming, a new sense of hope and opportunity - and a chance to step into an improved version of you."

Brooks' admission comes after his wife, former "America's Got Talent" judge Julianne, revealed she's "not straight" during a cover interview for the September issue of Women's Health. Speaking previously about the speculation over her sexuality that was prompted by that interview, Julianne told Us Weekly, "I don't find it frustrating. I know my truth and I know the energy behind whatever I said and what was put out there. People will define or label anything in this world and everything in this world, so I'm not mad at people who do that. It is what it is!"
