He's the future King of England, and a decade ago he did something no royal had ever dared: he put his face on the cover of a gay magazine. Today Prince William turns 44.

It was 2016, just days after the Orlando nightclub massacre, when William fronted Attitude and sat down with young LGBTQ people who'd been bullied to breaking point. His message to them was simple: you have nothing to be ashamed of.

Three years later he became the first royal to visit an LGBTQ youth homelessness charity, where someone asked how he'd react if one of his kids came out. "Absolutely fine by me," he said - his only worry being how cruel the world might be to them.

When footballer Jake Daniels came out in 2022, William was there with public support. Quietly, he's become the most openly pro-LGBTQ senior royal we've got.

Happy Father’s day to all the proud celebrity fathers, breaking barriers and expanding representation for LGBTQ+ families. Through surrogacy, adoption, and co-parenting, stars like Neil Patrick Harris, Elton John, and Ricky Martin have built beautiful families, blazing a trail for q***r parenthood worldwide.

Pete Buttigieg’s words emphasize courage and self-worth: “…If you have a problem with who I am, your problem is not with me. Your quarrel, sir, is with my creator.”
In a world where LGBTQ+ people are often judged or pressured, these words serve as affirmation that identity is sacred, personal, and beyond anyone else’s control.
Pride is about embracing who you are and letting others wrestle with their own biases 🏳️‍🌈

Happy Father’s Day to the dads who showed up, softened, learned, listened, apologized, changed, and loved their LGBTQ kids out loud.

And also, a little space for the complicated ones.

Father’s Day can be sweet. It can also be weird as hell. For the dads who got it right. For the dads who are trying. For the dads who had to unlearn a lot and did. For the chosen fathers, bonus dads, grandpas, uncles, mentors, and quiet safe people who stepped in with love when biology fell short.

Today we wish you a happy Father’s Day.
