Kellie Maloney: My brothers have not accepted transition

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

Kellie Maloney has told 5 live that not all of her family members have accepted her decision to become a woman. Kellie, who was previously boxing promoter Frank, was joined on the programme by her mum Maureen, who has supported her throughout the process. They are now closer than ever before - but Maureen said Kellie's brothers had not accepted her announcement. Kellie said that she hoped her brothers would be understanding one day and they would all "make the peace". This clip is originally from 5 live Daily on October 21 2014.
