"Everyone basically knew what was up, but it was still a shock to hear it outlined so explicitly." The family came around pretty quickly according to source, and all they want is for him to be happy.

A news from Buzzfeed.com discloses that the former athlete will have a one-on-one interview with TV personality Diane Sawyer on ABC discussing his coming out as a transgender on national TV.
