Raven Symoné and Miranda Maday talk married life & breaking down barriers for LGBTQ inclusion in TV

For Raven Symoné, being an openly out actor in the television industry at the same time seemed like an implausibility. The actor who is nonbinary and uses she/her pronouns continues to break barriers in the television industry.
Raven has been in the industry as a young person playing the lead in the Disney hit series “That’s So Raven.” In 2017 the show’s spin-off “Raven’s Home” stomped on those once-realities for Raven with history making representation. In the summer of 2022, trans actress Juliana Joel made Disney Channel history on Raven's Home by debuting her character Nikki, who is the network’s first trans character ever.
“I always felt like I had to leave the industry to live my life,” said Symone.
Today that is not the case.
Miranda Maday adds to her wife’s sentiments by speaking to the feelings Raven once felt.
“I think my message to anyone who is struggling or is questioning coming out or anything like that is to trust in the ability to live your truth. and in living your truth, even if everyone else around you is shunning you or telling you, you can’t, you’ll find the right people.”
