Laura Meads is slim, sexy and very feminine. It's almost impossible to believe she was born a boy.

The 28-year-old, who took her name from the late pop singer Laura Branigan, had surgery a month ago - the first of several operations she will have on her journey to becoming a full woman.

"This is the happiest I've ever been in my life," she told Weekend Argus this week.

Sitting next to her is her fiance, Jessica Venter, who also changed from male to female.
