Meri and Kody Brown’s only child together took to Instagram early this morning with some massive news. They had changed their name to Leo/Leon. They were no longer identifying as a girl. And, their pronouns were they/them. Born as Mariah Brown, Leon’s big announcement follows shortly behind their partner Audrey Kriss who also announced being transgender. Unlike Meri and Kody Brown’s only child together, Leon’s partner Audrey decided not to change their name.

Meri and Kody Brown’s child comes out as trans

Born as Mariah Brown, Leon kicked off a very long Instagram post revealing some advice someone gave to them recently. Leon explained someone told them that they didn’t have to have all of their “sh*t” together to share who they were with the world.

so here’s me, definitely not having almost any of my shit figured out, to let you know that i am trans. my name is Leon or Leo (i love both) and my pronouns are they/them.”

Meri and Kody Brown’s child notes that they fell in love with the name Leon and Leo. So, they will happily be referred to by either one. Leon, however, does not wish to be referred to as Mariah anymore. Moreover, Leon does not wish to be referred to as a girl anymore either.

Turns out, this is not a new or recent discovery on Leon Brown’s part. And, it certainly wasn’t a decision made simply because Audrey also came out as trans. Meri and Kody Brown’s child admits they have known for a long time they weren’t really a girl.

Leon Brown finally embraces who they are

Kody and Meri Brown’s only child together admits to realizing at a young age they were not really the gender they were born with.

i remember the first time that i knew i wasn’t a girl. i was pretty young & unfortunately i grew up in a context that was incredibly gendered & restrictive. so i continued to be socialized as a girl & later a woman. and here’s the thing, i’m finally ready to share my favorite self with the world. and that self is incredibly genderqueer, trans, and unapologetic.”

They continued: “being queer & trans are definitely some of my favorite parts of myself. and yet, there are so many things that i am learning to love about myself through this process. here’s to me getting to know myself, share myself, and continually evolve to be the person i am, to be my favorite self in all contexts.”

Leon/Leo Brown concluded their big announcement by shutting down anyone who wouldn’t accept them as trans. They noted anyone who couldn’t accept their new name and their they/them profile could see their way out of their life for good.

  1. I was brought up believing that women are werth nothing and men were literally positive powerful people and I suffered a lot not knowing who I was or am emotionally undone.
    So to be fair who ever you feel better to be great!
    To be happy is a blessing not all have.

  2. What??? I am totally confused. First, Mariah comes out as a lesbian. Then she marries her girlfriend. Now she (or they) was born the wrong gender. I am sorry, but either she (they) are totally messed up mentally or they are riding the popular bandwagon of the transgender movement for attention?

    1. totally agree. sorry your are either male or female. the end. you can be a les or gay I am all for u, but I will not refer to u any 1 as they or them which constitutes there are multiple people. so you wanna be Trans bcuz you are lessbians and love each other but ur mate is craving the missing body part and it’s either get it or get out? I want bigger tits and a smaller ass so does that mean I should be referred to as they or them cuz I am really a skinny chic stuck in a fat girls body? pull your heads outta what left wing liberal bs it’s stuck in and make a choice your either a he or a she.

  3. I fully support Mariah coming out and being who she wants to be, however, what we see on tv and social media I feel that there is something about her partner that is strange and makes Mariah be someone that she is not. I support LGBTQ but honestly all this new pronoun stuff is absolutely ridiculous! Individuals don’t want to be referred to as a boy or girl fine, but let’s just stop with all this over the top nonsense!

    I am curious to know what Kody thinks of all of this, or even his favourite wife Whiney Robin????

  4. Not trying to be a jerk, but I am honestly confused. First they come out as lesbians, that’s great, they make each other happy. I’m happy for them. Now, they are transitioning to a Gender that neither one of them liked before? I get one being trans because they will still be with a “girl” but both? Now they are going to be with men? So once they transition, will they still be considered lesbians? Or gay guys? Or just Theys and thems?

    1. The first important thing to realize and understand that gender and sexuality are not the same thing.

      Gender is determined at birth; however, genitalia develops through pregnancy. Those two things don’t always align. The way I understand that, is there’s a “misfire” … same as when someone is born with both sets of genitalia. It’s feasible that people can be gender fluid and can move between feeling feminine some days and masculine other days. It’s something a person who doesn’t experience this could never understand. Body dysphoria (not dysmorphia) can be severe and crippling.

      The best thing we can do for people in the LGBTQIA2S community is to be respectful of who they are as people. and be happy they are living their best life.
