“It’s a total nonsense story. There are only a few people in their world who can really verify if a story like this is true and I can tell you with absolute certainty that it isn’t,” the Beverly Hills, 90210 star told me. TMZ.
He continued, “This person trying to claim that this is true is a perfect example of someone with selfish motives who doesn’t care about negatively impacting the parent-child relationship.”
On Thursday, the 34-year-old Republican from California tweeted that “used to live in the same gated community” as the famous family and their kids “played in the park.”

“I saw two of them had a breakdown and said they were forced by their mother to wear girls’ clothes,” he claimed. “It’s pure child abuse. Pray for them.’
Green and Fox, who split in May 2020, share sons Noah, 10, Bodhi, 9, and Journey, 6.
He also has a 21-year-old son, named Kassius Lijah Marcil-Green, from his past relationship with Vanessa Marcil, and his 11-month-old son, Zane Walker, with fiancé Sharna Burgess.
In 2019, Fox revealed that her eldest “doesn’t care” about being made fun of for wearing dresses to school.
‘He designs, he draws outfits. He’s very talented, but he’s still six,” she said during an interview on The Talk. “He really likes fashion. He’s the one, like sometimes, he’ll dress himself and he likes to wear dresses, sometimes.”
“And I’m sending him to a very liberal, like a hippie school,” she continued. “But even there, here in California, he still has little boys saying ‘Boys don’t wear dresses’ or ‘Boys don’t wear pink.'”
Despite the taunts from other boys, Megan has taught her son to follow his own path in life.
“We’re going through that now, where I’m trying to teach him to be confident no matter what anyone else says.”

“My son, he is four,” he said at the time. “I’ve heard from some people that they don’t agree with him wearing dresses. To them I say: I don’t care. He’s four and if he wants to wear it, he’ll wear it.
“And it’s dresses or glasses or slippers or whatever. It’s his life, it’s not my clothes,” he continued. “I feel like 4 at 5, that’s a time when he should be having fun.” He doesn’t hurt anyone who wears a dress. So if he wants to wear a dress, good on him.’
