Drag Race’s Bosco comes out as trans: “I’m the happiest I’ve ever been”
Drag Race contestant Bosco came out as trans in an intimate message and said they are the “happiest” they’ve “ever been.” The 28-year-old queen took to Instagram on 11 February to open up about her gender journey. “After filming wrapped this summer, I began focusing on figuring out what medical transitioning would look like for me,” Bosco wrote. “I started HRT [hormone replacement therapy] after getting back from Drag Race.
I also plan to start exploring some surgical options in the near future. “This is something that’s been on my mind for over a decade now.
I’ve spent my adult life working in the food industry and have never felt financially secure enough to start this process. Honestly, I was also just flat out terrified of how I’d be treated.
I still am.” Accompanying the post with two pictures of them smiling, the Seattle-based drag star explained that she is “now in a place where I’m surrounded by love and support” from both a loving boyfriend and friends. “I’m not quite where I want to be yet, but I’m starting to see her [peek] through more and more,” she added.
