I love this statement, and how emotionally honest it is. It's lovely how his family is supporting him, and how Philip has talked so openly about the difficulties of his journey to himself and his family. In circumstances like these, coming out must be terribly difficult.
I love how mindful he is of his family's feelings, even as he comes to terms with his own. They obviously mean the world to him. Of course everyone has the right to seek their own peace and happiness no matter what - but it's lovely he is both being supported and supportive.
Of course not everyone can do this, and in some circumstances, the feelings of one's family cannot be taken into account when pursuing one's own peace.
All the same, it's nice to see a coming out statement that reflects the journey of the whole family. I'm glad.
