Whose Line Is It Anyway? star Colin Mochrie has made it clear that his love and support for his daughter come before anything else. After online trolls criticized his family, the comedian responded with a message that quickly earned praise from fans.
Mochrie, best known for his years on the hit improvisational comedy series Whose Line Is It Anyway?, has consistently stood by his daughter, Kinley Mochrie, since she came out as transgender.
To celebrate Kinley’s birthday, Mochrie shared a heartfelt message on social media, writing, “Happy birthday to my lovely daughter. Twenty-eight years old and everything we’ve ever hoped for in a child.”
While many fans responded with love and support, others left negative and hurtful comments. Rather than staying silent, Mochrie addressed the criticism directly in a follow-up post.
“Thanks to the fans of this page for being supportive and human,” he wrote. “To the trolls, my thoughts and prayers for your body for losing its mind and soul so tragically.”
His response was widely applauded, with countless people praising him for standing by his daughter.
One supporter commented, “Your daughter is incredibly lucky to have parents like you. You and your wife are setting a wonderful example of unconditional love.”
Another wrote, “Thank you for supporting your daughter and the transgender community. I work with homeless transgender youth, and family rejection is one of the biggest reasons they end up without a home. We need more parents like you.”
A third parent added, “As the parent of a transgender child myself, your family is beautiful. You remind the world what unconditional love truly looks like.”
Mochrie has spoken openly in the past about his daughter’s transition. In an earlier interview, he explained that although parents may initially wonder if their child has somehow changed, they soon realize the person they love is still the same.
“It’s the same kid,” he said. “Just wearing a different coat.”
Kinley has also shared that she never doubted her parents would support her.
“It took some time,” she said, “but I always knew love and acceptance would be waiting for me. I never worried that my parents wouldn’t stand by me.”
Through both his words and actions, Colin Mochrie has shown that his commitment to his daughter has never changed, earning admiration from many who see his family’s story as an example of unconditional love and acceptance.
