It doesn't take a genius to see that Raegan Revord is living their authentic self.
The Young Sheldon alum—who played Missy Cooper, the younger twin of Iain Armitage's titular character—confirmed that they identify as nonbinary, sharing how their personal journey has become a full circle.
"It’s so cool because growing up, whenever I would see a celebrity or whoever come out as nonbinary or queer, I was like, ‘Oh my god, this is so cool, I see myself in you,’” Raegan told Entertainment Tonight. " It’s so crazy to have that experience where I’m now that person and there might be a kid somewhere who’s like, ‘Oh my god, I see myself in you.'"
The 17-year-old added, "And that’s such an insane thing 'cause I was in that kid’s shoes at some point in my life."
Representation is also why Raegan wrote a queer love story as their debut novel. Released on Sept. 2, Rules of Fake Girlfriends follows a college student who gets mixed up in a fake dating scheme.
“A lot of people will doubt you because of your age, and a lot of people will not take you seriously,” they told People in an interview published Sept. 2. “I had such a passion and such a love for this book and this story, and I thought it was so important to tell. And if that's how you feel about being a writer, then you have enough."
But Raegan's talents doesn't stop there. In a real-life Hannah Montana move, the Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage star was secretly streaming on Twitch as Setting_Sunset until January, when they revealed their true identity to fans.
"I’ve been online for over two years. Making content. Meeting friends. Faceless. Have you ever wondered who’s behind the screen?" Raegan wrote on TikTok at the time, before unveiling their face. "A new era."
