As a result, he continued to play female characters. In an interview with Vogue Australia, he explained,
At 13 I came out as trans, just to mum and Catherine (his trusted agent and friend Catherine Poulton) and a few close friends. I was going through a lot, thinking: ‘Who the f–k am I and where am I going?’
Morgan Davies made the decision to keep his gender identification a secret when he was young since he found it difficult to express it freely. Talking to Out in Perth, he told,
When I first came out I quit acting for a bit, because not only were there no roles for trans people at the time, but I was so uncomfortable with myself about how I looked, how I presented, and how I looked on screen, and how people perceived me.
In 2020, his agent offered him the role of a boy having gender dysphoria as he thought Morgan would relate to the character and help him come out to the public. Even though he was angry in the beginning, he initially realized the importance of the offer and accepted it.
I knew that if I took the role, not only would I have to come out to myself, but also all my friends. I was still in high school, I knew playing a trans character I’d have to come out to everyone, it was so scary and daunting to me…I came out that day, to everyone, and while I was terrified, it ended up being not as scary as I thought it was.
Shortly after playing the role of Oberon, who has gender dysphoria, in The End, Morgan Davies made an announcement to the public that he was not a girl but a transgender.
