Bel Priestley, known for her role in Heartstopper, shared a heartfelt update two months after her voice feminisation surgery. She described her recovery journey, calling the first week post-surgery the hardest period of her life, where she struggled with not being able to speak. In her latest update, she expressed immense happiness with her results, stating she feels 'like a new confident woman'. As a trans people’s advocate, she emphasizes her desire to inspire younger generations who may feel alone, highlighting the significance of being a supportive role model for transgender youth.
I want to be someone for the younger generation to look up to and hopefully inspire. I hate the thought of anyone feeling so alone, like I did growing up.
I kind of for the first time feel like a woman. I feel like this new confident woman.
It is lovely when I get comments saying I have helped people come out to their family.
I want to be the best role model I can. I want to be the person I never had growing up.
