My Dad Stole My Limelight
By Lauren Deborah
Lauren Deborah never had the 'coming out' she had her heart set on (the dramatic kind), as when she claimed she was ready to declare her sexuality, her Dad came out first…stealing her limelight.
She has since grown up and realised the world doesn't revolve around her, most days, and everything happened as it should.
