In a candid interview on the From the Blocks podcast with Neil Brennan, Marlon Wayans opened up about the challenges he faced as his child Kai began the transition process. The White Chicks star admitted that he initially found it difficult to accept the situation and even tried hypnosis to stop the transition. “I tried to hypnotize that bitch,” Wayans joked, reflecting on his early resistance. However, Wayans expressed regret for his actions, admitting that he felt uneasy after realizing that trying to control his child’s life was the wrong approach.

“This happened when they were 22 or 23, and for me… you try to hold on and want a normal life… grandchildren… but yo, it’s not my fault,” he said, revealing the emotional difficulties he faced. as a parent. Despite these difficulties, Wayans shared that he eventually came to accept and unconditional love, saying, “It’s their life, they should be happy. I will love my child. Dot”.

Wayans also explained that humor helped him navigate the transition, noting the balance between being a father and being a comedian. “I’m a father first, a comedian second, and the two clash,” he joked. While Wayans admitted to having emotional issues, he made it clear that his child’s happiness and well-being was most important.
