Posing happily with their three-year-old daughter, dad Dade Barlow and mum Tiffany Grimes look like any other contented family.
But Dade was born female, and when the pair first got together in 2008 theirs was a lesbian relationship.
After realising he was transgender, Dade began his transition to becoming a man aged 29 in 2011 - just before Tiffany became pregnant using a sperm donor.
Life coach Tiffany, 41, says: "When Dade told me he wanted to be a man, we nearly split. I'd left my previous husband because I believed I was gay - but I loved Dade and stood by him. Now we have our daughter, we're happier than ever."
