It's hard to nail down precisely why I think this, but I suspect that Emma Portman, Ellen Page's wife, who is younger, may have had something to do with Page's decision to transition. Maybe it's that her reaction seems so . . . triumphant rather than someone who's been blindsided.

I would also not be surprised if Portman also transitioned and that they would insist that everyone call them a gay male trans couple.

Yep, otherwise they're just a straight couple, "and in a world that doesn't have enough LGBTQ+ representation, you want to be visible". <--- Page, last year.
