Lizzie stated, “Growing up with that was huge for me because when I would go on holidays and just be with all of my cousins and my aunts and my uncles and everything, they just made me feel like Lizzie.” She continued to explain, “They never treated me differently.
They never did anything special for me. They treated me like everyone else, and having that foundation and having that support on both sides of my family, was huge.”
