Sometimes, when Kylie Jenner was hanging out with her female friends, Bruce would pop his head round the door and ask, “So, what are you all talking about?” (Cue: “Daaaaaad!“) Now, Caitlyn and Kylie talk openly about makeup and clothes, the youngest Kardashian-Jenner tells Ellen DeGeneres in a new interview, airing later today.
This shift in their relationship has helped reinforce their bond in the months since Caitlyn’s transition. “I like her better then Bruce!” Kylie laughs, “We hang out more now.”
Kylie also confirms that she had known about her parent’s gender dysphoria since long before Caitlyn came out to her family. “We actually caught him, then, dressing up as a girl, when my sister and I were six or seven, maybe. So we’ve known for a while there was something, it was just never talked about.”
And while Kylie admits that she initially had a hard time talking about Caitlyn’s transition – “I feel it was the only thing that I really bottled, and I don’t bottle a lot of things” – she says she’s happy there are no secrets now and that Caitlyn is “living her authentic true self.” Amen!
