Alexis Bittar is reclaiming the American flag. So much so that the celebrity jewelry designer and filmmaker has one hanging outside the Brooklyn home he shares with his husband and their three kids.

“I love it,” Bittar tells me. “I bought some Gay Pride flags, but I haven’t put them out yet. I like the fact that it’s just the American flag. I like that you don’t know.”

The not knowing he’s referring to is if someone sees the flag, will they assume the home belongs to a right-leaning, maybe even MAGA, family?
