One said, “Civilization’s doomed.” Another said, “…Bad, woke, and bad parenting. A 12-year-old should play football and be a man. You’re ruining your kid.”

Green didn’t back down. The day after the tweet, she and Korben went to London Pride and shared a photo.

Green ignores the haters. She hopes others find hope in her and Korben’s bond.
