Rosie O'Donnell On How Her Child Came Out As Nonbinary
Rosie O'Donnell opened up for the first time about her child coming out as nonbinary. In a conversation with Variety about her role as a Mary in the third season of And Just Like That..., Rosie discussed when her child, Clay, 12, disclosed their gender identity to her. Rosie described it as "the most interesting thing." "I have a little one who is nonbinary — 12 years old — and it was the most interesting thing," the actor and comedian said. "They said to me, 'Mommy, I'm nonbinary. I'm not a boy and I'm not a girl.' I said, 'Okay, fantastic.'" "They go, 'My pronouns are they/them, and I'd like them respected.' I will do my very best, right? Who are they, Harvey Milk reincarnated?" Rosie added. If you didn't know, Rosie is a parent to five children: Clay, Vivieene, 22, Blake, 25, Chelsea, 27, and Parker, 30. In a March 20 TikTok, Rosie confirmed that she's officially living in Ireland and is "proud and impressed" with her child Clay's adjustment to the big change. "It's not easy to move to another country, and we really felt as a family this was the safest and best thing for us to do." Talking with Variety, Rosie also said the conversation led to her child asking if she was nonbinary. "I said, 'Well, you know what, honey, I'm an O.G. lesbian. I'm a girl who knew I was a girl, who liked being a girl, but didn't feel like a real girl. But I never wanted to be a boy. I never thought about boys. I was only always thinking about girls.' And then they said, "What did your class say when you told them?" Rosie then explained that the expression of sexuality and gender was very different when she was a kid in the 70s. "Can you imagine? They have no understanding of what it was like when I was 10 in 1972 and nobody mentioned it. The word was not said — you would never admit it." "You'd go to church and hear horrible things about people like you, and Billie Jean [King] and Martina [Navratilova] had to disclaim their lesbianism and pretend they were not gay in order to continue working on the tennis circuit, and that was so painful for me when I was a 10-year-old. They didn't understand. I've been trying to explain to them what it was like when I was a kid, and they are stunned." As a millennial who is queer and nonbinary, it's important to note that the reason it's much different for younger generations like Clay and myself can be attributed to people like Rosie. I grew up watching Rosie in A League of Their Own, The Flintstones, Wide Awake, Harriet the Spy (my favorite), and her talk shows. When she publicly came out, it was the first time I saw someone accepting who they truly are despite opposition. It provided me with a blueprint to begin my journey of self-discovery years ago, and these journeys continue for the younger generations, thanks to folks like Rosie. "It was really a strange time to be out of the closet to everyone in show business who knew me personally — and in my life, everyone knew and I had children. Once you have children, you're out! Because you go with your partner to the school meetings," Rosie told the publication. "I was out to everyone except the public. And I often thought it was surprising that when I did come out, people were surprised. 'Well, you like Tom Cruise.' I didn't want him naked in my bed! I wanted him to mow my lawn and give me a lemonade. How many times do I have to say that?" Oh, Rosie. You did it for me again. Some of us really need to see and hear these conversations. 😂 Thank you.

Rosie O'Donnell sold NYC penthouse for nearly ‘half its price' when she left US for Ireland
city sale | The comedian's Midtown East home that she bought for $8 million in 2017, was sold for $4.75 million last month Rosie O'Donnell The comedian's Midtown East home that she bought for $8 million in 2017, was sold for $4.75 million last month, according to the New York Post. The penthouse located at 255 E. 49th Street features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a glass-enclosed room with a view of the East River, a sauna and a rooftop deck. The 63-year-old originally listed the penthouse for $8.3 million in early 2023 but later dropped the price. The star who gave up the home before Trump's inauguration in January, had previously said she was motivated to move to keep her non-binary child, Clay, safe. 'I was never someone who thought I would move to another country, that's what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child. And here we are,' she explained. 'You know, I'm happy. Clay is happy. I miss my other kids. I miss my friends. I miss many things about life there at home and I'm trying to find a home here in this beautiful country and when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that's when we will consider coming back.' O'Donnell, whose grandparents are from Ireland is reportedly in the process of obtaining her citizenship in Ireland. In another video made since her move she said: 'I feel healthier [and] I'm sleeping better without the stress and anxiety over what was happening politically in the country The TV personality who is a parent to kids Parker, 29, Chelsea, 27, Blake, 25 and Vivienne, 22 is to make her comedy debut on a Dublin stage this week. Having starred in films such as Sleepless in Seattle, A League of Their Own and The Flintstones, she has also had her own talk show, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, and has appeared in the likes of HBOs Curb Your Enthusiasm and Netflix's Russian Doll. Now, the 62-year-old is performing at a number of Dublin venues this week including the Craic Den Comedy Club in Workman's, The Comedy Cellar at the International Bar, and In Stitches Comedy in Peadar Kearney's pub, according to the Irish Independent. Read more As she prepares material ahead of her performance at Edinburgh Fringe Festival later this summer. She took to Instagram to say: 'Tuesday and Wednesday nights this week, I will be trying out some new stand up as I prepare for Edinburgh Fringe Festival - come by and say hello.' According to the Craic Den Comedy Club, 'Rosie is a rockstar comedian with a stand-up career spanning four decades.' A long-time critic of the US President, when Taoiseach Micheál Martin visited Mr Trump ahead of St Patrick's Day, a reporter asked about Ms O'Donnell's move to Ireland in the Oval Office with Mr Trump responding: 'Do you know who she is? You're better off not knowing.' Last month she told CNN's The Situation Room that 'not a day has gone by that I thought it was the wrong decision'. Revealing that she already decided to leave the country if Trump won the presidency, she told CNN: 'And although I was not one of the celebrities who announced that that's what I would do, I made the decision within my family and my therapist should he win.' She said that both her and her son were 'gone before he was inaugurated' and are now both settling into her new life in Ireland. 'We chose Ireland and didn't really know where to go,' O'Donnell told Us Weekly. 'Someone said Dalkey and I found a house online that was in Glengarry. But when the people who were helping us move in went there, there was mould in it.' She said she couldn't move there 'especially with an autistic child who has some allergy issues', and so they ended up in Howth, where they stayed in an Airbnb. Once their time was up there, O'Donnell and Clay officially settled in Dublin and 'couldn't be happier'. 'There's a great, great school there,' she said while discussing her Hulu documentary special Unleashing Hope: The Power of Service Dogs for Children With Autism. 'And Clay has done very well. And they were really welcoming. 'And I love the little town, the little village. It's in the heart of Dublin, but it's still a village where you know the name of the grocer and you know the name of the cashiers. People are unbearably kind in a way that shocks me every single day.'
