Cleo Corraine has always stood out in the 90 Day Fiancé universe — not just for her journey as a trans woman but for her raw honesty and resilience. But her latest revelation has left fans shocked, furious, and heartbroken.
In a surprising announcement, Cleo revealed that she is legally recognized as a man again. Not by choice — but because of what she calls a “regressive and dehumanizing legal decision” in the United Kingdom.
“According to British law, I’m now a gay man again,” Cleo posted, mixing humor and heartbreak in her signature way.
“So if anyone knows a masculine gay man who cooks pasta, send him my way.”
90 Day Fiancé: Why Did Cleo Say Goodbye to Her Legal Identity as a Woman?
The shocking change stems from a recent UK Supreme Court ruling that shook the country’s LGBTQ+ community. The court unanimously ruled that terms like “woman” and “sex” in the 2010 Equality Act refer strictly to biological sex — not gender identity.
“The court decided that the definition of a woman doesn’t include trans women under this act,” one Redditor explained.
“This doesn’t throw out all trans protections, but it’s a giant step backward.”
This ruling might not make Cleo change her passport, but it could affect her rights. She might face challenges in areas like women’s shelters, sports, or prison placements.
And for someone like Cleo, who has fought to live her truth, it’s not just frustrating. It’s devastating.
90 Day Fiancé: “This Is Literal Madness”
Once Cleo shared her announcement, the 90 Day community rushed to support her — and rage against the UK’s legal move.
“WTF!?” wrote one commenter. “I had no idea the UK was doing the same s** we’re fighting in the U.S.”*
Another added, “My heart breaks for Cleo. This is how rights are erased — slowly, piece by piece.”
Many pointed out the irony of such legal changes happening in progressive countries like the UK and Germany.
“It’s fascism making a global comeback,” one Redditor warned.
“We’re watching rights unravel in real-time.”
Cleo, always known for her dark humor, has tried to stay upbeat in public. But fans worry that this ruling sends a chilling message to trans people everywhere.

Amid the chaos, Cleo’s supporters made one thing clear: they see her, love her, and will not let this go unanswered.
“YOU MATTER. YOU ARE LOVED,” one fan wrote. “This ruling doesn’t define who you are — it just proves the system is broken.”
Many were shocked by how the legal language could put trans people at risk, especially in tough situations.
“So Cleo could be placed in a men’s prison if arrested? Forced to use the men’s bathroom? That’s terrifying,” one fan noted.
Another added:
“I hate that the world is moving backward. But Cleo — you’re still stunning, still powerful, and still YOU.”
The conversation was global. Many Americans showed their outrage and support.
“Trump may be trying to gut LGBTQ+ protections in the U.S., but I didn’t expect the UK to follow suit,” a Reddit user commented.
“It’s terrifying how this kind of bigotry spreads like wildfire.”
90 Day Fiancé: Cleo’s Future
Even in the face of legal erasure, Cleo’s confidence hasn’t dimmed. Fans praised her latest selfies, especially her bold haircut and glam aesthetic.
“She looks better than ever — that haircut is a slay,” someone wrote.
“Honestly, not many people could pull that off. She’s still glowing.”
For many, Cleo represents the resilience of the LGBTQ+ community in dark times. She may be “legally” listed as male under a dated statute — but to her fans, she’s always been a woman. A powerful one at that.
“I may be a ‘legal’ man,” Cleo joked, “but I’m still wearing heels to the grocery store and slaying in them.”
