Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat has confirmed via Twitter that The Doctor’s sometimes companion and wife River Song is not a one man woman. In fact, she also has a tendency to be a one woman woman as well.

Here’s screen-captured evidence:

Now non-hetero characters are nothing new to the Whoniverse, just ask Captain Jack Harkness. But correct me if I’m wrong, but has the exact nature of River’s sexuality come up anytime in the past, or is Moffat just spitballing (so to speak) like J.K. Rowling and the whole Dumbledore’s gay thing.

Or maybe it comes into play in the forthcoming seventh series for some reason. I guess we’ll see.
