Who is Annemarie Wiley? 'RHOBH' star's husband Marcellus won't have transwomen athletes competing against his daughters
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Annemarie Wiley is the newest addition to the cast of 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Season 13 which is set to air on Wednesday, October 25 at 8 pm ET on Bravo.
She is married to former NFL player Marcellus Wiley, who recently grabbed eyeballs, due to his contentious remarks on the issue of transgender women.
In February 2023, the athlete took to social media and stated that he will be 'damned' if a transgender female athletes compete against his daughters.
He had said, “I have no issue with transgenders. I do have an issue with athletes who are transgendered trying to participate going from a transition of a man to a woman and now playing with the women. And, I will say that."
"You all can try to Dave Chappelle me all you want. I am very clear on this. You can be a transgender. You can be the homie, but I’ll be damned if a male at birth turns into a female and tries to compete against my daughters. She ain’t out there. We out," he added.
The former NFL Pro Bowler further stated, “Why can’t the dudes who transition to women actually empower women by competing against men?”
“I do have an issue with athletes who are transgender women trying to compete against biological women. Not against the Wiley Women! Don’t make this a human rights issue – this is a biological issue. Simple as that. Trust me, I am a man. I hate saying fair. It’s not even right. Forget fair, it’s not right."
I have no issue with transgenders, but I do have an issue with athletes who are transgender women trying to compete against biological women. Not against the Wiley Women! 💯
