In case you missed it, for weeks now, media outlets have been rampantly reporting that Bruce Jenner is trying to transition into a woman. But as rumours would have it, it was all speculation until his mother, Esther Jenner, confirmed it. At least that’s what Daily Mail said.
Daily Mail also wrote that 65-year-old Bruce has been showcasing an increasingly feminine appearance in recent months, wearing his hair long and sporting painted nails after undergoing a laryngeal shave procedure to flatten out his Adam’s Apple in 2013. According to TMZ, the soon-to-be-ex “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star went under the knife again a few weeks ago to have a nose job.
The media outlet also released a picture that showed how he has been looking more feminine as of recent weeks:
If you’ve kept up well enough with “Keeping Up With the Kardashians”, you would’ve also heard that Bruce and Kris Jenner filed for divorce in September 2014, 11 months after the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” stars revealed that they had separated.
Why?
Well, according to court documents filed on 22nd September 2014 in Los Angeles Superior Court and obtained by E! News, Kris cited the ever-standard irreconcilable differences as the reason for the breakup. The date of separation was listed as 1st June 2013. She requested joint custody of 17-year-old daughter Kylie Jenner, the only minor left in the Kardashian-Jenner brood.
And while we’re on the topic of their daughters, Us Weekly very recently quoted 19-year-old Kendall Jenner as saying, “I love my dad. He’s always been there for me and my sisters. He’s a wonderful man. And just because he’s changing shoes now, so to speak, doesn’t make him less wonderful. I will always love my dad, whether he’s a man or a woman.”
The interview was said to have taken place during the recent taping of Justin Bieber’s “Comedy Central” roast. Needless to day, the above quote came as quite a shock to many because the rest of the reality star’s kids have remained mostly mum on his transition from male to female.
Kendall later took to her Twitter to dispute the report.
Fighting back against seemed to be a falsified comment about her father, she openly slammed them:
how is it legal for someone to “quote” someone and publish it if in fact you never said what was quoted.

Shame on US Weekly for making up quotes. I NEVER said those things. I never spoke to them.

Confused? Us too.
But we know one thing for sure – Kim Kardashian recently stopped by ET to celebrate the upcoming debut of her T-Mobile Super Bowl ad and while she was there, she addressed the rumours about Bruce.
Breaking her silence, Kim was quoted as saying:
I guess I’ll just kinda let everyone be curious and, you know, I just feel like that’s really his journey to talk about. I think Bruce should tell his story his way. I think everyone goes through things in life, and I think that story and what Bruce is going through, I think he’ll share whenever the time is right. I think Bruce is very happy, the happiest I’ve ever seen him. He’s, you know, our Dad..so we support him no matter what. When the time is right, he’ll talk about whatever he wants to talk about. It’s his story to talk about and not really mine.
Bruce is expected to star in an exclusive tell-all interview with Diane Sawyer to share his experience of gender reassignment.
He’s also rumoured to be filming a spin-off docu-series about the transition on E!, although his representatives have refused to confirm the claims.
