In 2020, Ruby finally felt confident enough to share her true self with her parents, and eventually, the world. Admittingly, it took longer after a bad therapy experience, but her mom and dad have since “watched in wonder and pride as [their] son became [their] daughter Ruby.”

Jamie Lee Curtis and actor/writer/director Christopher Guest have been married since 1984, and also share a daughter, Annie, nine years older than Ruby. In 2020, Ruby sat her parents down at the family’s Los Angeles home to share her truth, but at first, she couldn’t.

“It was scary — just the sheer fact of telling them something about me they didn’t know. It was intimidating — but I wasn’t worried. They had been so accepting of me my entire life,” Ruby said in an interview.

Instead of telling her parents, Ruby left and texted her mother instead. “I called her immediately. Needless to say there were some tears involved,” Jamie Lee recalled

Ruby has since reached a point where she is comfortable talking about her journey publicly, and in doing so, hopes to help others.

“I’ve tried to stay out of the spotlight for many years, or at least done my best to. I’m happy to be more visible if it helps others,” she said.

For Jamie Lee, it’s been a new experience. “It’s speaking a new language. It’s learning new terminology and words,” she said. “I am new at it. I am not someone who is pretending to know much about it. And I’m going to blow it, I’m going to make mistakes. I would like to try to avoid making big mistakes.”

The actress has also learned so much since Ruby came out. “You slow your speech down a little. You become a little more mindful about what you’re saying. How you’re saying it. You still mess up, I’ve messed up today twice. We’re human,” Jamie Lee added. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

But like Ruby, Jamie Lee hopes sharing their experience as a family will help others. “But if one person reads this, sees a picture of Ruby and me and says, ‘I feel free to say this is who I am,’ then it’s worth it,” the actress said.

Ruby always knew she was different, and even though she would say that her gender was male, she knew deep down that it wasn’t her truth.

“When I was about 16, a friend of mine who is trans asked me what my gender was. I told them, ‘Well, I’m male.’ After, I’d dwell on the thought. I knew I was — maybe not Ruby per se, but I knew I was different,” she explained.

Jamie Lee’s youngest daughter also noted that she is still the same person she’s always been, it’s just her appearance that now matches that as well.

“People will still remember me for who I was, but I haven’t changed that. They finally get to see who I’ve always been, you know, inside, but now I finally get to show it on the outside,” Ruby explained.

While Ruby is grateful for the support and help she’s received from those close to her, she recognizes the importance of it on a larger scale.

“Helping others is something everyone should do. I don’t think it’s only our household thing. It should be a human thing,” she concluded.

Ruby’s words came after her mom jumped to her defense when homophobic threats against her made the rounds, as we previously reported. Jamie Lee Curtis revealed there were threats made against her daughter during an interview in October 2022, to her shock.

Curtis said people threatened to “annihilate” Ruby and people like her just for being transgender. She added that she could not fathom “the level of hatred” among society which is “terrifying.”

The “My Girl” star admitted that she is “scared” for her child’s life but noted that she has a “voice” that she intends to use while encouraging others to do the same if they want to see change.

While Jamie Lee and her husband adopted both their kids, she is every bit the devoted and protective mother. She cut Ruby’s umbilical cord right after birth in March 1996, and was the first person to hold her.

Even though she can’t remember how they came to be Ruby’s parents, it happened after several “circumstances occurred, all of which were celestial.”

Tori’s neon swimwear left little to the imagination as it accentuated her slender figure and left her cleavage and rib cage on display. Her bikini bottom also drew attention to her flat stomach and the piercings on the left side of her hip.

Adding some flare to her beach wear, the mother of five accessorized her look with chic sunglasses, a gold necklace, and a body chain wrapped around her midriff.
Apart from taking a dip in the ocean, Tori also took some time to tan with her friend, Laura Rugetti, who sported a zebra-print one-piece and a white wide-brimmed hat.

According to reports, the two gal pals spent over two hours at the beach. Tori’s fit physique certainly did not go unnoticed by the public. However, far from praising how great her body looks, many called her out for not achieving her shape naturally and expressed disdain toward her appearance.

“Let’s be honest, it’s called plastic surgery,” remarked a Facebooker in the comment section of a post about Tori’s day at the beach. Another agreed and added, “[She] literally has no belly button!”

Writing their comment in all caps, someone else exclaimed, “NOT A GOOD LOOK.” Similarly, an Instagrammer echoed, “That doesn’t look good.” Jumping on the criticism bandwagon, one observer urged, “Sorry girl…use a [cover-up].”

One person who felt particularly strongly about Tori showing off her slim figure, asserted, “She’s had many babies. That photo has likely been retouched or she’s had work done. This is why other women end up thinking that they don’t look ok.”

However, amid the criticism, some people came to Tori’s defense, gushing over how amazing she looked in her neon bikini. “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Dolores Catania was one person who gave Tori props. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Taking to the comment section of a media outlet’s Instagram post about Tori, the TV personality swooned, “She looks amazing.” Chiming in with another compliment for the podcaster, an admirer wrote, “This is the best I’ve seen her look in a really long time.”

While Tori may not have used plastic surgery to enhance her figure, as many netizens believe, she has been honest about what she has used to achieve her body type.

As put by Page Six who shared images of Tori at the beach, “#ToriSpelling showed off her slimmed-down figure after confirming she used Ozempic and Mounjaro to shed pounds following the birth of her son Beau.”

In April of this year (2024), the “True Tori” talent made the aforementioned confession on her podcast “Misspelling.” “I did Mounjaro and everyone admits it now. I tried Ozempic and it didn’t work for me,” she admitted during the podcast episode.
Ozempic and Mounjaro are diabetic medications used to treat type II diabetes. However, many celebrities have been using them to lose weight.

Explaining her decision to use the meds as opposed to other methods like working out, Tori divulged, “It’s a different time, so I don’t feel ashamed saying that. I couldn’t lose the baby weight … I was lucky enough that with four of my babies, I lost the baby weight afterward.”

The 51-year-old also highlighted how fortunate she was before taking the diabetic medications because she doesn’t typically enjoy working out or drinking water, but still managed to stay naturally thin before Beau McDermott, one of the sons she shares with Dean McDermott. “My whole life I didn’t diet. I was born with really good genes,” she previously disclosed.

Tori revealed that the heaviest she has ever weighed was 120 pounds. However, after welcoming Beau, that number climbed up to 160 pounds.
Going to her doctor after saying she struggled to lose weight, Tori said the medical professional had informed her that she couldn’t lose weight because of her age; she was 44 at the time.

She claimed that eating protein, working out, and trying different diets didn’t work out for her. One day, while getting hormone treatment for menopause at her doctor’s office, Tori decided to give weight loss medication a chance.

As mentioned earlier, she switched to Mounjaro after trying Ozempic first and discovering that it did not achieve the results she wanted. However, Tori confirmed that she has stopped using the drug.

“I’m no longer on it but I did lose weight. I haven’t been on it since end of January. I did go off of it because I didn’t want to lose too much weight,” she stated.
Apart from discussing her venture into weight loss medication, Tori Spelling also made it a point to boast about her ability to keep her lady parts intact even after delivering all five of her kids via C-section.

She did the same on her 48th birthday and, in her post, expressed how she felt about her appearance. Her skin may not be as taut and her body as supple as when she first entered the business, but they reflect the experiences she has endured and enjoyed.

Such self-awareness is a gift, but people would use social media platforms to express their unfiltered opinions about others. Milano and other public figures often find themselves targets for hurtful comments, personal attacks, and even bullying. One such poster tweeted:

“Alyssa Milano was hot back in the day. Now she still attractive but crazy which makes her ugly.”

The “Insatiable” star attracts online hatred not only for her celebrity status but also for her views, which she isn’t shy about. She is vocal about humanitarian and progressive causes, using her resources and her platform to comment on issues she believes in.

Some would describe Milano as a social media activist. She was instrumental in the re-emerging of #MeToo in 2017, originated by fellow activist Tarana Burke. Her tweet resulted in a global movement where many victims of sexual exploitation felt supported to speak out about what they had gone through.

Whether one aligns with her beliefs or appreciates her photos, Milano, the activist, the actress, or the 50-year-old wife and mother are all parts of a human being worthy of love and respect.
The actress is also politically engaged and her socials reflect her affiliations. She hosts “Alyssa Milano: Sorry, Not Sorry,” a podcast that “tackles social, political and cultural issues,” which often puts her at odds with those with a different opinion. The most notable “beefs” were between Milano and her “Charmed” costar, Rose McGowan, and tech-prenuer and Twitter owner, Elon Musk.

Whether one aligns with her beliefs or appreciates her photos, Milano, the activist, the actress, or the 50-year-old wife and mother are all parts of a human being worthy of love and respect. And many appreciate her unfiltered posts. In response to her birthday selfie, psychologist and author Amy Cuddy commented:

“Happy birthday, Alyssa!!! I’ve never felt stronger, braver, more content, and more beautiful than I have this year, since I turned 50 in July. Here’s to a strong, brave, beautiful 50!!! ” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Fellow actress Milla Jovovich also commented, calling Milano a joy and a force of nature who uses her voice to tell it like it is. And on Twitter, a friend called the actress-activist a “sweet, brilliant, beautiful angel,” saying she brings joy and light to many lives.

In her latest birthday post, Milano is obviously in a balanced and happy place, as she says she is pleased to be here as who she is and in the moment. She expresses her appreciation for how far she has come and says, “There’s still so much to look forward to!”

Love means recognizing each party’s effort and giving each other the space to succeed or fail.
She also reminded her followers to count their blessings, love those close to them, and keep moving. Taking stock of what one has, whether it is one’s birthday or not, inspires one to be compassionate toward those in need.

In 2021, Milano released a book of essays called “Sorry, Not Sorry” that spawned her podcast of the same name. In it, she dedicates a chapter to her husband of 13 years, talent agent David Bugliari. Speaking about what their relationship has taught her, Milano said:

“Love, in many ways, is a constant state of apology. It means recognizing the things that you fail at, knowing that the person you love sees them too, and trying so hard to be better at them. But most important, it means being loved in return even with those shortcomings. It means that the apology is usually accepted, and it’s usually sincere.”

The “Melrose Place” actress continues to say that loving one another means not taking each other for granted. A heartfelt apology is not an easy thing to give. Neither is forgiveness. Love means recognizing each party’s effort and giving each other the space to succeed or fail.

In her book, Milano shared about one of the most challenging parts of her marriage to Bugliari. They conceived soon after their wedding in 2009. Sadly, she had a miscarriage, and the newlyweds were understandably upset. But the actress was fighting an internal battle.

She blamed herself for the loss of their baby, thinking God was punishing her for the abortions she had in her twenties. But her husband stood by her and reinforced the dream they had to become parents would one day come true.

In that painful moment, he made her laugh, which is one of the reasons Milano hates that work engagements often take her away from Bugliari. The couple has been blessed with two children, Milo, 11, conceived three months after their miscarriage, and Elizabella, 8.

Alyssa Milano is grateful that she and her husband put in the work, faith, love, and patience to stay together. Their children are the product of that love, and they enjoy seeing them grow. When she looks back at her life, Milano is in awe of what love created.
