Caitlyn Jenner, at 73, recently gave insights into her evolving relationship with the Kardashians following her transition. In a revealing interview with The Sun, coinciding with her appearance in the Sky documentary “House of Kardashian,” Jenner shared that she has had little contact with her former spouse, Kris Jenner, and step-daughters, Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney Kardashian.
Current Relations with the Kardashian Family
According to Jenner, her interactions with the family have significantly diminished. “I haven’t spoken to them (Kim or Kris); no, I pretty much do my own thing now,” Caitlyn disclosed, indicating a clear distance between her and the Kardashians. The release of the documentary’s trailer has reportedly left Kris Jenner “furious,” adding tension to their already strained relationship.
Life as a ‘changed woman‘
Caitlyn Jenner, who publicly came out as a trans woman over eight years ago, opened up about the personal transformations she has undergone. She discussed the pressures of appearance and the liberation she now feels. “At first, you take your appearance so much more seriously because for so long you had to hide all of this stuff. Now I just wake up in the morning and just be myself,” Jenner expressed, emphasizing her newfound comfort in living authentically.
Reflections on Family and Fame
Despite the familial estrangement, Caitlyn fondly recalled her time filming “Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” where she featured in over 400 episodes. “Those were some of the best times of my life,” she reminisced, acknowledging the unique opportunity to watch her daughters Kendall and Kylie grow up on camera.
Jenner also commented on the success of her daughters, Kendall and Kylie, and her step-daughters, noting the friendly competition among them. She highlighted Kylie’s early entrepreneurial spirit with Kylie Cosmetics and Kim’s ventures like SKIMS, which have significantly bolstered their careers.
The Downside of Wealth
While discussing the luxuries of a wealthy lifestyle, Caitlyn noted that money does not necessarily bring happiness. “In the old days I had nothing, and I was happy – and I’ve also had a lot of money and it doesn’t make you any happier,” she stated, sharing a grounded perspective on life’s true riches.
Caitlyn Jenner’s journey through fame, family dynamics, and personal identity continues to be a poignant narrative of endurance and authenticity. Her current sense of isolation from the Kardashian family contrasts deeply with the integral role she once played, marking a bittersweet chapter in her life.
