Jamie Lee Curtis\u2019 one daughter, Ruby, 28, stayed out of the spotlight until her personal journey and gender transition became public knowledge. But what would she look like today if she never transitioned?\n
Ruby Guest works as a video editor for a gaming personality on YouTube, married in 2022, and she also underwent a gender transition. The road that led to her life now had been one marked by learning, acceptance, and support. But what if she never transitioned from male to female? What would she look like now? Read on to find out.\n

In 2020, Ruby finally felt confident enough to share her true self with her parents, and eventually, the world. Admittingly, it took longer after a bad therapy experience, but her mom and dad have since \u201cwatched in wonder and pride as [their] son became [their] daughter Ruby.\u201d\n
Jamie Lee Curtis and actor\/writer\/director Christopher Guest have been married since 1984, and also share a daughter, Annie, nine years older than Ruby. In 2020, Ruby sat her parents down at the family\u2019s Los Angeles home to share her truth, but at first, she couldn\u2019t.\n
“It was scary \u2014 just the sheer fact of telling them something about me they didn’t know. It was intimidating \u2014 but I wasn’t worried. They had been so accepting of me my entire life,” Ruby said in an interview.\n
Instead of telling her parents, Ruby left and texted her mother instead. “I called her immediately. Needless to say there were some tears involved,” Jamie Lee recalled.\n
\n
Ruby has since reached a point where she is comfortable talking about her journey publicly, and in doing so, hopes to help others.\n
\u201cI’ve tried to stay out of the spotlight for many years, or at least done my best to. I’m happy to be more visible if it helps others,\u201d she said.\n
For Jamie Lee, it\u2019s been a new experience. “It’s speaking a new language. It’s learning new terminology and words,\u201d she said. \u201cI am new at it. I am not someone who is pretending to know much about it. And I’m going to blow it, I’m going to make mistakes. I would like to try to avoid making big mistakes.”\n
The actress has also learned so much since Ruby came out. “You slow your speech down a little. You become a little more mindful about what you’re saying. How you’re saying it. You still mess up, I’ve messed up today twice. We’re human,” Jamie Lee added.\n

But like Ruby, Jamie Lee hopes sharing their experience as a family will help others. “But if one person reads this, sees a picture of Ruby and me and says, ‘I feel free to say this is who I am,’ then it’s worth it,” the actress said.\n
Ruby always knew she was different, and even though she would say that her gender was male, she knew deep down that it wasn\u2019t her truth.\n
\u201cWhen I was about 16, a friend of mine who is trans asked me what my gender was. I told them, \u2018Well, I’m male.\u2019 After, I’d dwell on the thought. I knew I was \u2014 maybe not Ruby per se, but I knew I was different,\u201d she explained.\n
Jamie Lee\u2019s youngest daughter also noted that she is still the same person she\u2019s always been, it\u2019s just her appearance that now matches that as well.\n

\u201cPeople will still remember me for who I was, but I haven’t changed that. They finally get to see who I’ve always been, you know, inside, but now I finally get to show it on the outside,\u201d Ruby explained.\n
While Ruby is grateful for the support and help she\u2019s received from those close to her, she recognizes the importance of it on a larger scale.\n
