EXCLUSIVE: Drag Race star @itsfontana has come out as a transgender woman, sharing that she is now ready to live “fully and authentically” after a year of personal growth since filming RuPaul’s Drag Race UK vs The World. In an exclusive statement, Fontana explained to PinkNews that while filming the series she identified publicly as non-binary because she “wasn’t fully ready” to open up about her trans journey. “Identifying as non-binary was a beautiful and important part of my journey toward truly finding myself,” she said. “Now, I feel completely ready to be open and transparent.” Fontana shared that returning to screens meant wanting to show audiences her most honest self, adding: “I gave you my most true, authentic self on Drag Race. Now it’s time to give you my most true, authentic self outside of it.” #fontana#rupaulsdragrace#transgender#comingout
