AnnaLynne McCord is speaking out after Southwest Airlines refused to let her friends Jake Lapp and David Lionel utilize the Family Boarding policy with their daughters because they’re gay.
The 30-year-old 90210 actress took to social media on Friday (August 25) to share her open letter to the airline with fans.
“Have you ever felt bullied?” she began. “Have you ever been picked on? Have you ever been rejected? The one who got left out because for some reason to another person you didn’t measure up; you did not belong?”
“A couple of days ago, the young girls in this photo were made to feel just that by individuals who wear your logo and represent your company,” she wrote, referring to a photo of her friends and their kids, which you can see below. “It was their first flight ever and they were so excited to join their Daddies on a family trip.”
“Only your employees made it clear that these beautiful little girls and their fathers were not in fact ‘family,’” AnnaLynne added. “And when it came time for ‘Family Boarding’ these little girls were shown what has caused the detriment in our world; hate. They were not allowed to board with the other families and had to watch as their fathers were told that they didn’t count as family. Love is what these wonderful little girls have for their Dads. Love does not separate, it unites.”
