On Tuesday, former basketball player Dwyane Wade shared a secret about his 12-year-old daughter with the world. He told talk show host Ellen about Zaya Wade’s new identity as Transgender.

Zion, born as a boy, came home and said, ‘Hey, so I want to talk to you guys. I think going forward I am ready to live my truth. I want to be referenced as ‘she’ and ‘her.’ I would love for you guys to call me Zaya.

Dwyane Wade and wife Gabrielle Union are very supportive of their daughter’s decision and consider themselves allies of the LGBT community. However, brother Zaire showers his love for sister in a beautiful Instagram post. Dwyane Wade’s son calls Zaya Wade a best friend.

Man, I remember bugging my mom as a kid telling her I wanted a brother so bad. I was the only child looking for company and someone to look after and take care of. I have been blessed to have my best friend, Zaya, with me for 12 years. We did everything together … we fought, we played, we laughed and we cried. But the one thing we never did was leave each other behind… I’ve told you that I would lay my life down to make sure you are ten toes down and happy on this earth. I don’t care what they think Z, you are my best friend and I love you kid, and if it means anything, just know there’s no love lost on this side.
