Spent the day wandering around the magic of Istanbul’s mosques and couldn’t be more in love with this gorgeous city…
Istan-blue 🇹🇷
Already melting (and it’s before noon) …
Winding down into the weekend
You could stare for years at the inside of Hagia Sophia and never get bored…. or less amazed. What a stunning place (as of a few weeks ago, no longer a museum). I feel lucky I could see part of it still.
I am heartbroken and devastated beyond belief at the loss of my mom, Paige Heard. She left us too early, clasping onto the memory of her beautiful, gentle soul. She will be missed from the very depths of our hearts forever. Her unflinching, open heart made her the most beautiful woman I had ever known. It’s hard to imagine and even more difficult to say but I feel truly lucky to have been her daughter and been given the gift of having the light she shone on everyone, fall on me for nearly 34 years.
This has been an unbelievably painful time but in that, I am reminded of what survives us all, love.
The kindness, support and generosity my sister Whit and I have received from friends and family has been utterly soul-saving.

vacation laugh is it’s own thing 🇹🇷
Care packages from friends in times like these mean everything
Top knot twins…. enjoying a tiny bit of peace from the tiniesttt member of the family
Breathless moment taking in the sights of Cappadocia‘s timeless caves and ageless wonder (Not quite the ‘Indiana Jones lewk normally necessary for said adventure but it worked)
The love affair with my cast iron skillet continues..
Desert dwellers
My happy place
Wildflower hunting
Sissy love
Enjoying the UK sunshine..
Vacation hair, I’m coming for you #lorealparishair Bodrum Yalıkavak

Standing in solidarity with those intent on changing a terribly flawed and broken system and for those who are demanding justice in support of countless black and brown lives lost to it. I stand with all who are participating in this historic moment.
I travelled to the UK to testify in these proceedings as a witness to assist the Court.
After obtaining a restraining order in 2016 and finalizing our divorce, I wanted to move on with my life. I did not file this lawsuit and, despite its significance, I would have preferred not to be in court.
It has been incredibly painful to relive the break-up of my relationship, have my motives and my truth questioned, and the most traumatic details of my life with Johnny shared in court and broadcast around the world.
I stand by my testimony in court and I now place my faith in British justice.
Although I did not bring this lawsuit, I am aware of the precious resources being consumed by his litigation and will be glad to see those resources re-directed back to more important legal matters already delayed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
I appreciate the dedication, hard work and support of the defense legal team, as well as my UK and US lawyers.
I also wish to extend my thanks to the very kind and diligent court staff and the police, who have been so sensitive in ensuring my protection so that that I could testify in safety.
And finally, my heartfelt thanks for the tremendous outpouring of support and the many messages I have received from around the world. You have given me so much strength and I send it back to you.
Ride like the wind, Pistol
This pride month, it is crucial we remember that there would be no pride as we know it without the work of Black and brown trans women. If you, like me, are 🏳️🌈, please do everything in your power to honor the sacrifices of these incredible women and remember that we owe them our present day liberties, while you celebrate. #blacklivesmatter #blacktranslivesmatter #allblacklivesmatter Image borrowed from @broobs.psd of the inimitable Marsha P. Johnson.
