Kim Kardashian addresses rumors that Bruce Jenner is transitioning to become a woman

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Kim Kardashian said that her stepfather Bruce Jenner is the happiest she’s ever seen him.

Kim Kardashian addressed rumors that Bruce Jenner, 65, is transitioning to become a woman, something the former Olympian has not publicly commented on.

The reality star said her stepfather “should tell his story his way”.

“I think when the time is right he’ll talk about whatever he wants to talk about,” Kim Kardashian said.

In recent months, photos of Bruce Jenner have shown him with increasingly longer hair.

It’s led to speculation about his personal life but there has never been any public confirmation from Bruce Jenner himself that he is or isn’t transgender.

However, in the TV interview Kim Kardashian alluded to the rumors and said her family “support Bruce no matter what”.

“I think everyone goes through things in life but I do think that story and what Bruce is going through… he’ll share when the time is right.”

The InTouch magazine was recently criticized for digitally altering a picture of Bruce Jenner onto a woman’s body.

Transgender activist Kate Bornstein wrote a statement for the Advocate website about the cover.

Kate Bornstein wrote: “I think that as more and more of us discover that trans is nothing to be ashamed of, the more difficult it’s going to be for bullies to get people to believe their slander and lies.”
