Busy Philipps announced that her oldest child, Birdie, is gay and uses they/them pronouns.
Birdie, 12, came out as gay to their parents when they were 10, but shared their pronouns with their mom more recently, Philipps said on her podcast Busy Philipps is Doing Her Best. I have this public persona, and I want Birdie to be in control of their own narrative, Philipps said of why she waited to share Birdie s identity with the world.
“I said, ‘You know, Bird, I’ve been doing a bad job with the pronouns,’”
Busy recalled. “Because Birdie said that they would like their pronouns to be they/them, and I haven’t been doing it, and I said because I have this public persona and I want Birdie to be in control of their own narrative and not have to answer to anybody outside of our friends and family if they don’t want to.”
Busy continued, “Bird was like, ‘I don’t give a f k. You can talk about how I’m gay and out; you can talk about my pronouns. That would be cool with me. That’s great.’ So I said, ‘OK, I can talk about it on the podcast.’”
