Rupert Everett says Caitlyn Jenner made 'a terrible mistake'

June 20, 2016 16:00

Rupert Everett has said Caitlyn Jenner made a terrible mistake in choosing to transition and had "no clue' of what being transsexual involved.

The 57-year-old actor, who is gay himself, warned about the dangers of children having sex change operations and argued children should be able to embrace the "ambivalence' of their gender without resorting to medical procedures.

Everett explained that he wanted to be a girl while he was growing up and dressed exclusively as a girl between the ages of six and 14.
