Equally, the documents gathered from the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County at the time of their release but did not publish the documents right away to give Vivian time to come out on her own.
However, the documents have started making their way around Twitter.
Vivian’s hearing is scheduled for this Friday, June 24.
Xavier is also asking for the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County to recognize his gender as female.

He listed the reason for the name change as not wanting to be associated with his biological father.
The document states;
Gender Identity and the fact that I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.
However, it is unclear what is behind Xavier’s rejected of their father, in such a public way.
