Cher stunned her son Chaz Bono by referring to him by his new name before his appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show.<\/span><\/p>\n

The transgender star admits his mother continues to struggle with aspects of his sex change – but calling him Chaz in a text he received before his appearance on the Oprah show was a big breakthrough.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On the show, which aired in America on Monday (09May11), Bono said, “The hard thing for my mom is because she is a public figure and because she has this personality of kind of being so cool about stuff and progressive, people forget that she’s a parent.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“A lot of parents never speak to their transgender kids again; that’s not the case in my family. There’s no doubt about her love for me.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“She’s getting better and better. She sent me a text this morning and it was really nice… She wrote in her text today ‘Chaz’, so that was really huge. She’s moving in the right direction.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
