Bradley Manning, the US soldier who leaked secret US government documents to the Wikileaks website, has announced he wants to become a woman.
"I am Chelsea Manning," Manning, 25, said in a statement provided to NBC's Today programme. "I am a female."
He said he had felt female since childhood, wanted at once to begin hormone therapy, and wished to be addressed as Chelsea.
He has been sentenced to 35 years in prison for crimes including espionage.
Manning's struggles with his identity formed a key part of his defence through his weeks-long court martial.
Defence witnesses, including therapists who had treated Manning, testified he had said he wanted to transition to being a woman, suggesting his problems with his gender identity affected his mental health.
