Actor Elliot Page beamed as he posed for a topless picture after coming out as trans.
Page, 34, announced he was a trans man in December, writing on social media: “I feel lucky to be writing this. To be here. To have arrived at this place in my life.”
On Monday the star of Netflix superhero series The Umbrella Academy shared a picture showing him smiling while posing next to a pool in swimming shorts.
He previously described his top surgery – where breast tissue is removed – as life-saving.
Page captioned the post: “Trans bb’s first swim trunks.”
He added the hashtags #transjoy and #transisbeautiful.
Page, known for an Oscar-nominated role in 2007 coming-of-age drama Juno, sat down with Oprah Winfrey for her Apple TV+ show last month and said seeing himself with masculine features had brought him most joy since transitioning.
He said: “Getting out of the shower and the towel’s around your waist and you’re looking at yourself in the mirror and you’re just like, ‘there I am’. And I’m not having the moment where I’m panicked, I’m not having all these little moments that used to be…
“Just being in a T-shirt. It’s being able to touch my chest and feel comfortable in my body for the, probably the first time. Tears of joy.”
