The star made such a statement on her Instagram account. "Hi friends. I want to share with you that I am a trans person. My pronoun is "he / they", and my name is Elliot. I'm glad to be writing this. I am incredibly grateful to the people who supported me along the way. I can't even describe how wonderful it is to love your real self and discover your essence,”Elliot began.
At the same time, the actor noted that he was a little scared and asked the audience to be tolerant. “My joy is real, but still fragile. To be honest, despite the great happiness, I'm scared. I am afraid of interference, hatred, jokes and violence. I just want to give you a picture,”Paige wrote on his microblog.

Addressing the trans community, Elliot said he would "do whatever it takes to change the world for the better."
“I love that I'm transgender. I love that I'm queer. The more I accept myself, the more I dream, the more my heart is filled. To all transgender people who have faced violence and intolerance, I want to say: I see you, I love you and I will do everything to change this world for the better,”Paige summed up in his post.
