“We love you, our youngest son, Ace ❤️,” the actress gushed. “Our job as parents is to give our kids a safe and supportive environment so they can grow up as healthy, happy, confident, independent humans."

The mother-of-four continued, “Since Ace is a 12-year-old child, with a long life ahead of him — we will let him tell his own story someday if he chooses to do so.”
