20 Things You Didn't Know About Charlize Theron
6. One Of Her Two Adopted Children Is A Transgender Girl
Perhaps as an extension of the freedom her mother allowed her at a young age and her own activism, she took to adopting children, first in 2012 with Jackson and 2015 with August. She spoke earlier about marriage, but has since reneged, claiming it's just not for her, though she did want to raise children.
In April of last year, she revealed that seven-year-old Jackson identifies as a girl. "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."
