In the third episode, Loki revealed that he's bisexual to female version of himself from another timeline, played by Sophia Di Martino. The scene sees Tom and Sophia in conversation about love. Sylvie asks Loki, "How about you? You're a prince. It must've been would-be princesses. Or perhaps another prince.”

"A bit of both," Loki responds. "I suspect the same as you. But nothing ever…"

"Real," Sylvie says.

Series director Kate Herron tweeted a screenshot of the conversation from the episode and wrote, “From the moment I joined @LokiOfficial it was very important to me, and my goal, to acknowledge Loki was bisexual. It is a part of who he is and who I am too. I know this is a small step but I’m happy, and heart is so full, to say that this is now Canon in #mcu #Loki.”
