AceShowbiz - Transgender actor Elliot Page has showed off the results of his breast removal surgery with a shirtless pool photo.
"The Umbrella Academy" star, formerly known as Ellen Page, debuted his new chest - and his six-pack - in a post on Instagram, in which he is featured beaming as he models a pair of red swimming shorts.
"Trans bb's first swim trunks #transjoy #transisbeautiful (sic)," Page captioned the image.
He was quickly inundated with supportive comments from followers, including Miley Cyrus, who wrote, "Hot," alongside a red heart emoji, and actress Ilana Glazer, who shared, "look a dat handsome boi (sic)."
Page announced he was non-binary and transgender in December (20), and subsequently revealed he had taken another big step towards embracing his new lifestyle by having surgery to flatten his chest, an operation he was already recovering from when he went public with his new gender identity.
Elliot Page said in a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey that he's so much happier after breast removal surgery.
"Getting out of the shower and the towel's around your waist and you're looking at yourself in the mirror and you're just like, 'There I am.' And I'm not having the moment where I'm panicked...," so he explained. "It's being able to touch my chest and feel comfortable in my body for the - probably the first time. Tears of joy [sic]."
He emphasized the importance of speaking out about his experiences to help others going through similar gender identity struggles.
