In 2003, she spent 3 months in Bolivia volunteering at a children’s home. Thanks to her many travels, New fell in love with Spanish and learned to speak the language at the University of Leeds where she also majored English.

To help finance her education, New began modeling and was managed by View Management in Madrid and Barcelona. Modeling in Spain opened the doors to a career in acting after she was discovered by American talent manager Stacey Castro.

News’ professional acting career kicked off in 2010 when she had guest starred in episodes of TV shows El club del chiste, and La Riera.

Hannah’s character on her breakthrough film The Black Sail was a gay one. Like many other actors who’ve played gay scenes, fans were immediately curious as to what Hannah’s real-life sexual orientation could be.

From her many interviews, New has revealed that she has nothing against gay people and particularly loves the way homosexuality was portrayed in the series.

In a 2014 interview with , she said;

“I think it’s really interesting when you look into the history of sexuality and you look at how lesbianism became defined and how it became legislated. I suddenly realized that, “Wow, I’ve got this opportunity to play this woman who is growing and developing without those constraints, without that obligation to be part of anything, to be part of a group.” She is completely on the margins of all of that.”

She also added;

“Some people might feel that by not defining her, it kind of draws away from her identifying with a particular group but I actually think that it’s a stronger move to be a fluid woman whose sexuality is completely her own and she’s in control of it and she doesn’t have to answer to anyone. It’s incredibly empowering. I can’t express how excited I am about it.”

From her words, one can conclude that New has no issues with homosexuality. That said, it is not enough fact to ascertain what her sexual orientation in real life could be.

New tries to keep her personal life as private as possible and never ever posts about her romantic life.

So far in her career, New hasn’t been romantically linked with anyone just yet. Not a guy, not a woman.
