Though YouTube is home to many transgender creators who have helped increase the community’s visibility in recent years, perhaps one of the site’s biggest transgender stars, Gigi Gorgeous, announced a major life milestone over the weekend: she is now a mother.
Gigi, whose real last name is Lazzarato — and her girlfriend of two years, Nats Getty — welcomed a baby boy named Enzo via a surrogate, the couple shared yesterday on Instagram. “Thank you so much to our beautiful surrogate,” wrote Lazzarato, who is 25. Getty, 24 — a fashion designer, model, artist, and Getty family heiress — shared photos of Enzo’s customized onesies on Snapchat
, reports NewNowNext. Aside from the posts, the new mothers have remained relatively mum on the subject.Lazzarato, who came out as transgender in 2013 and then came out as a lesbian last year, also starred in a critically-acclaimed YouTube Red documentary chronicling her transition titled This Is Everything. In addition to charity work for trans youth, Lazzarato was also recently tapped to serve as a social media correspondent for MTV’s rebooted TRL.
