India, May 9 -- Hollywood actor Liev Schreiber is publicly supporting his daughter Kai and reflecting on his journey as the parent of a transgender child. Speaking to Variety on Thursday, Liev shared that Kai, now 17, never formally came out to him or her mother, actor Naomi Watts.

"Kai was always who Kai is. But I suppose the most profound moment was her asking us to change her pronouns. To be honest with you, it didn't feel like that big of a deal to me only because Kai had been so feminine for so long," said the Ray Donovan star.

Liev praised his daughter's strength, calling her "such a fighter," but also emphasised the importance of being seen. "It's important that she goes, 'Hey, I am trans,' and, 'Look at me,'" he said.
