Airyn grew up mostly out of the spotlight, even though her father was one of the biggest Hollywood stars of the past 50 years.
I am thankful that both of my parents agreed to keep me out of the spotlight, even though it goes without saying that no parent is flawless. She informed Them that they desired it to be extremely private. “They have expressed their desire for me to have as typical a childhood as possible.”

Airyn discovers her name in the media after coming out. She disclosed that after witnessing other trans women openly discussing their transitions, she started hormone therapy in November 2024.
“Seeing trans women succeed and being open and honest, particularly [in] public places like social media… “You know what?” I ask. Perhaps I still have time. I might be able to begin.
Concerning her family, the 29-year-old said they “may still think of [her] as the person [she] was before the transition.”
Following her announcement, it was inevitable that people would want to hear De Niro’s thoughts. The legendary actor seemed perplexed as to why his feelings for his daughter would alter in any way, in a charming manner.
He told People, “I love and support Airyn as my daughter.” “I’m not sure what the big deal is about. I cherish each and every one of my kids.
A recent executive order that forbids the expression of “gender ideology” and public criticism of trans rights across the United States coincide with Airyn’s coming out. She is eager to succeed “on [her] own merit” and is presently pursuing a degree in mental health counseling.
“I hope that I can serve as an inspiration to at least one other Black person who is queer and not a size too small,” she said to Them.
“I would like to see more transgender women and Black women who are not super thin or heroin chic, or who may have larger bodies.”
