Charlize Theron Talks About Supporting Her Daughters
It’s been years now since Charlize Theron stopped referring to her eldest adopted child as her son and in a report published by Daily Mail, Theron reveals Jackson was the same age as her sister August is now – just three year’s old, when she revealed that she is a girl — not a boy, despite the body she was born in.
‘She looked at me when she was three years old and said: “I am not a boy!”,’ said the star, when asked.
She continued: ‘So there you go! I have two beautiful daughters who, just like any parent, I want to protect and I want to see thrive.
‘They were born who they are and exactly where in the world both of them get to find themselves as they grow up, and who they want to be, is not for me to decide.
‘My job as a parent is to celebrate them and to love them and to make sure that they have everything they need in order to be what they want to be.
‘And I will do everything in my power for my kids to have that right and to be protected within that.’
We love that she’s so supportive of her kids. We just caught a press screening of her new movie “Long Shot” which also stars Seth Rogan and it was SO GOOD — not even kidding — one of the funniest movies we’ve seen in a long time — like “Something About Mary” levels of funny.
