Yesterday was a major day for Juno and Umbrella Academy star Elliot Page—in a moving letter posted to his Twitter and Instagram accounts, he shared that he is trans, his name is Elliot, and he goes by “he” and “they” pronouns.
He wrote:

After Elliot received an outpouring of support from celebrity friends and fans alike, his wife—New York City-based dance teacher Emma Portner—took to Instagram to share how proud she is of her man for being his most authentic self.
“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,” she wrote along with a screenshot of his letter.
