Jamie Lee Curtis revealed that her younger child who was assigned male at birth is transgender. In a recent interview with AARP Magazine, the actress said she and her husband are proud of their child for living her truth. The actress said she has been working on herself a lot in the past couple of years and rebuilding herself while shedding habits, practices and old ideas that don't work anymore. One of those ideas also includes the notion that gender has to be fixed. 

She then spoke about her youngest child and with permission revealed that she and her husband “have watched in wonder and pride as our son became our daughter Ruby." Speaking of celebrities putting their support behind their kids, Charlize Theron in 2019 revealed that her then-7-year-old child Jackson who was assigned male at birth is transgender. 'Sex and the City' star Cynthia Nixon's child came out as transgender. Her son Seph came out as transgender in 2018. Earlier this year Busy Philipps revealed that her 12-year-old child Birdie was gay and preferred the pronouns they/them.

Who is Jamie Lee Curtis's daughter Ruby?

Curtis and her husband Christopher Guest welcomed their youngest child who was previously known as Thomas in March 1996. Curtis is Hollywood royalty and comes from a family of illustrious showbiz bigwigs, however, none of her children decided to follow in her footsteps. Ruby was drawn to the arts and works for a gaming company. The 25-year-old works as a computer gaming editor. Her elder sister Annie started teaching dance at age 16 and after acquiring a degree, became a successful dance instructor and team director at MNR Factory in Los Angeles. 

Thomas, now known as Ruby, accompanied Curtis and her dad on the red carpet as a kid but as she grew up the appearances stopped altogether. However, Curtis did have the honor to have both her kids and her husband by her side in 2018 on the premiere night of her film 'Halloween'. Curtis shared a photograph from the night on her Instagram page with the caption, "The most important part of my work is the people I get to come home from that work too. My daughter Annie, my son Tom, and my husband, Christopher offered me love and support last night and I am so lucky to call them mine. @halloweenmovie."



 

Curtis's daughter Annie, 34, is married but has no children. She also revealed that her daughter Ruby is about to be married soon to her fiancé next year. "And she and her fiancé will get married next year at a wedding that I will officiate," Curtis said who is an empty nester currently. She does not have any grandchildren and when asked what she thinks about being a grandmother, she said, "not yet, but I do hope to."
