In a new profile with AARP, Jamie Lee Curtis reflected on how her life these days feels like a "constant metamorphosis." She also revealed that one of her children is transgender.

"With her younger child's permission, Curtis reveals that she and [her husband] 'have watched in wonder and pride as our son became our daughter Ruby,'" the AARP profile reads.

"She and her fiancé will get married next year at a wedding that I will officiate," Curtis said.

Ruby, the youngest daughter of Curtis and husband Christopher Guest, is 25 years old and works as a "computer gaming editor." Their oldest daughter, Annie, is a 34-year-old dance instructor.

The AARP profile notes that Curtis "began to scale down her acting career to devote more time to raising her two children" in the mid-90s. In recent years, Curtis has appeared in more blockbuster movies again. She reprised her role as Laurie Strode in the 2018 "Halloween" sequel, and also costarred in 2019's hit murder-mystery movie "Knives Out."
