Noted as the man behind Car Porn Racing, Ian Angelo King’s transition to a Transgender woman has garnered support from netizens.

She wrote “The truth will set me free. Trans woman,” on the bio of her Instagram account ‘hailtothe_queen’ where she debuted as Angelina Mead King in 2012.

Despite becoming a Transgender woman, Angelina and wife, model Joey Mead King, remain happily married. In the same account, she posted a photo of her and Joey with the caption, “My rock and my number one supporter”.

Joey even commented on the post, saying “Love is love”.

Further, friends and followers of the two have been vocal in supporting the transition and their relationship, according to PEP.ph, enumerating them — “designer Mark Bumgarner, former beauty queen Maggie Wilson, host/model Bianca Valerio, photographer Niccolo Cosme.”

TV presenter and car enthusiast James Deakin, a friend of Ian, also posted on Facebook: “So one of the car guys I look up to the most, is now a woman. Hey, if you ain’t hurting anyone and it makes you happy, it’s all the same to me. Good luck, Ian/Angie”.

The supportive messages did not go unnoticed as Angie took to Twitter to express her gratitude.

Joey is a top model and host, while Angelina is the managing director of Victoria Court. The two had been married since 2011.
