"Cindy Rivers, a proud, Canadian comedian, and transgender woman that came out at age 30. From the beginning of growing up in Newfoundland to coming out in Fort McMurray, Alberta, and all of her success and fail along the way."
In her 2021 interview for Global News, she said: "“After some time in the hospital and dealing with some things, I started to come out”.
The first person she came out to was her then-wife.
“That was interesting. We didn’t really tell anybody else for a little while… a couple months.
“We couldn’t really figure it out so we split up and I slowly started to tell everybody else. I came out at work and to my parents.”"
