In the middle of the pandemic, Will Ferrell received an email from an old friend. They’d met in 1995 when both joined the sketch show institution Saturday Night Live – he was a performer, she was a writer. She’d defended his talents from those who doubted him, then wrote many of his best sketches, and together they’d go on to collaborate on a number of movies, from Casa de mi Padre to Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. And, now, she had something very important to say: at the age of 61, she is ready to tell him – and the world – that she is trans. Later, she’d name herself Harper Steele.
