A dad-of-two has come out to his children as non-binary after they saw pictures of him on a phone wearing a dress - and didn't recognise him. Dave Moore, 40, decided to reveal his hidden truth of 35 years after attending the Bristol Pride parade on Saturday.
The IT consultant from Cardiff admits spending the majority of his life in "horrific" pain whilst "hiding" his gender identity. His children - a five-year-old son and an eight-year-old daughter - were aware that him and his partner Alex Andersz, 35, were attending the event.
But Mr Moore did not originally plan on telling them about his own gender identity. Following Pride his kids saw pictures of him in a dress on a phone and didn't realise it was their dad. It prompted Dave to tell them he is non-binary. He said: "They wanted to know how pride was and Alex asked if they wanted to see her make up and started showing her photos of the makeup she did for Pride.
