Eddie Izzard has revealed her love struggles as a trans woman, saying: “I would like to start dating but it's complicated”.
Izzard has been openly trans since 1985 and in 2020 announced she wanted to be “based in girl mode from now on”.
The comedian, 60, also revealed in 2020 that she wanted to use the pronouns “she” and “her”.
But now, she has opened up about her struggles with love as a trans woman.
Izzard said: "I would like to start dating, but it's complicated with me being a trans woman.
“It's going to have to be a very confident and strong-minded woman who has a relationship with me,” she told the Daily Mail.
Izzard was previously in a relationship with British singer Sarah Townsend, with the pair meeting at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 1989.
In 2018, the comedian said: “I would love to have kids one day, but I am trying to work out how to do that.”
