Precious and Myles Brady Davis are a lot of things: activists, writers, speakers. Now, they’ll also be parents.
Myles is 17 weeks pregnant and is due this winter.
The queer power couple announced their pregnancy on Instagram and in a statement to The Advocate, a magazine focused on queer communities. Precious is a trans woman and Myles is transmasculine.
Both have been outspoken advocates for LGBTQ people and people of color. Myles is the director of communications at Equality Illinois; Precious works at the Sierra Club but has worked at the Center on Halsted in the past.
Achieving their dream family has been difficult at times as they’ve feared for Myles’ safety as a pregnant transmasculine person and needed to use in vitro fertilization, which meant months of hoping for a pregnancy only to get negative results. But they always had the support of their friends, family members and community members.
And they always had each other.
“We just kind of sank to our knees holding this test as we saw positive. We just looked at each other and cried and then we kissed each other.”
