This life changing announcement comes just two months after Juno actor Elliot Page came out as transgender.

His wife Emma Portner, a dancer and choreographer who has been featured in Justin Bieber's Purpose: The Movement music video and tour, took to Instagram to share her support at the time.

"I am so proud of @elliotpage. Trans, queer and non-binary people are a gift to this world. I also ask for patience & privacy but that you join me in the fervent support of trans life every single day. Elliot’s existence is a gift in and of itself. Shine on sweet E. Love you so much," Emma wrote back then.
