“It’s International sons day! We love you, our youngest son, Ace. Our job as parents is to give our kids a safe and supportive environment so they can grow up as healthy, happy, confident, independent humans.”

She continued:

“Since Ace is a 12-year-old child, with a long life ahead of him – we will let him tell his own story someday if he chooses to do so. All we can say is Ace, we love you so much and we are proud to be your parents. Your brother and sisters love and support you too.”

Her followers gave mostly supportive comments on her post and her husband, Terry wrote back:

“Thank you all for spreading the love.”

Speaking about Ace in February 2020 with PEOPLE, Terry said he has “always been incredibly strong-willed” and a “very complex, layered person.”

He also added that he was “going through a lot of self-exploration”.

Heather added:

“Everyone always looked at [Ace] because [Ace] dresses ‘like a boy’, which, I hate those kinds of labels. It’s clothing. Clothing should just be clothing at this point.”
