The Real Housewives of Orange County star Heather Dubrow’s youngest child came out as transgender.
On Saturday, March 4, the reality TV personality uploaded a photo to celebrate International Son’s Day. The snapshot pictured a beach on a sunny day with the name “Ace” written in the sand.
“We love you, our youngest son, Ace ❤️,” the actress gushed. “Our job as parents is to give our kids a safe and supportive environment so they can grow up as healthy, happy, confident, independent humans.”
The mother-of-four continued, “Since Ace is a 12-year-old child, with a long life ahead of him — we will let him tell his own story someday if he chooses to do so.”
Heather finished the loving post with a statement of complete support for her child.
“All we can say is Ace, we love you so much and we are proud to be your parents,” she confessed. “Your brother and sisters love and support you too ❤️.”

Many others voiced their admiration for Ace himself, with one user writing, “Yay Ace! Here’s to celebrating your authentic self and living out loud!”
Heather’s husband, Terry Dubrow, also left a message that read, “Thank you all for spreading the love.”

The brood lives in their Orange County mansion, where the public figure filmed The Real Housewives of Orange County.
