Sarah Michelle Gellar, who recently learned what the phrase “mother” means, has reacted adorably to the title being bestowed upon her by the gays.
While at a press event for Wolf Pack, Gellar’s new Paramount+ fantasy series, the assembled homosexuals began shouting “mother” at the actress.
She asked what it meant, and was told: “When the gays love a woman, [she’s] a mother!” leading the Buffy star to update her Instagram bio to simply: “Mother.”
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Gellar was asked: “You have recently learned that the gay community refer to you as ‘mother’. Does Freddie [Prinze Jr.] know about this title?”
“I actually told Freddie (Gellar’s husband and Scooby Doo co-star) that from now on, I only want to be referred to as ‘The Mother’. No just ‘Mother’, I might actually change it to ‘The Mother’.”
Gellar continued by heaping praise on the LGBTQ+ community.
“It’s a huge honour,” she said. “This is a community that has supported me and all of the jobs I’ve done, whether they’ve been successful or not and so I’m incredibly grateful.”
