LOS ANGELES | In a new interview with the American Association of Retired Persons’ magazine, Golden Globe- and BAFTA-winning actress Jamie Lee Curtis disclosed that her youngest child is transgender.

In the AARP interview, Curtis reflected that she has “watched in wonder and pride as our son became our daughter Ruby.”

Curtis and her husband Christopher Guest — British screenwriter, composer, musician, director and actor — have two daughters. Ruby, 25, works as a computer gaming editor while Curtis and Guest’s 34-year-old daughter, Annie, is married and works as a dance instructor. Curtis also noted that Ruby and her fiancé are getting married next year in a wedding that Curtis will officiate.

The longtime Hollywood couple have been married for more than 36 years but have no grandchildren, “but I do hope to,” she told the magazine.
