After starting the process to become a transgender man in 2016, Karina’s son finally managed to be legally declared male. Recall that the now muscular 15-year-old boy revealed to his famous mother that he felt trapped in a woman’s body and that, therefore, he wanted to be a man.
From that moment on, they began to document the entire transition process, in which the singer played a fundamental role in supporting him since the boy made the surprising confession. It was speculated that, for this reason, the interpreter of “I know how it hurts” divorced her husband Marcello Azevedo, whom she married in 1998 under the Jewish rite and is the father of her two children: Yasha and Hannah, whose name is now Xander.
Mother and son have just taken a new step that will mark their lives from now on. Xander is recognized as a transgender man and should be addressed by name. “My son is beautiful, big, muscular. Finally, he sees himself as he has seen himself all his life. His documentation has already changed everything … Xander is a boy!” Karina wrote on her Instagram account, excited.
Both the boy and his mother celebrated the news and assured that this “is a great example that can teach us all regarding tolerance, acceptance and, in his case, to be a better mother.” Despite the fact that today this issue has been more accepted by a large part of society compared to previous years, there are still those who speak out once morest these changes. In fact, some users made negative comments when the information “The Xander case” was spread on social networks.
