"It still gives me the ability to remarry if I choose to. I lost my partner last year, and it allows me the legal right to remarry. It also ensures that I will be recognised as a woman when I die.

"I also have a female birth certificate. I am legally female. I've had surgery, including lower surgery."
She has previously claimed trans people can change their biological sex "a little bit".
She previously boasted about running a self-described "safe space" where men could secretly dress up as women—including as schoolgirls.
Earlier this year, she came under intense criticism following her appointment as chief executive of Endometriosis South Coast, a Hampshire-based charity.
The move was blasted by women’s rights campaigners, who called the decision "worrying and insulting."
Despite defending herself stating, "My birth sex doesn't come into it—my CV does," Richards later stepped down from her role as chief executive of the charity in May.

At the time the activist posted on X: "Sorry...but regarding the ongoing discussion of whether trans women can express milk to satisfy a baby, these two scientific papers suggest they can, albeit there is some doubt as to the quantity of milk that can be produced.
"The milk produced by trans women has been found to contain high protein levels and other nutrients, making it suitable for infant feeding.
"While the overall composition may vary slightly, it can still benefit the infant significantly."
