Oscar winning actress announces that all three of her kids are queer and teach her 'every day'

Oscar winning actress Marcia Gay Harden has revealed all three of her children are queer.

The 63-year-old made the announcement during a live telethon over the weekend, writes The Mirror.

Marcia shares Eulala, 24, and 19-year-old twins Julitta and Hudson with her ex-husband, director Thaddaeus Scheel, 58.

The actress was speaking at the Drag Isn't Dangerous: A Digital Fundraiser when she opened up to co-host Adam Shankman about why she felt she wanted to be involved in the event.

She said: "What drives me is because it's right, and what's happening right now is wrong.

"What drives me is — my children are all queer. My eldest child is non-binary. My son is gay. My youngest is fluid.

"And you know, they are my kids, and they teach me every day."

Also there at the event were big names such as Idina Menzel, Leslie Jones, Melissa McCarthy, Charlize Theron, Jesse Eisenberg and Sarah Hyland.

After the event, Marcia, who also starred in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, later shared a reel of images to her Instagram account.

She captioned the upload: "The only thing dangerous about drag is how hot these Queens are!"

She went on to urge her 116,000 followers to join in with the fundraising efforts from the event to help support the LGTBQ+ community.
