Bruce Jenner Sex Change Latest News, Rumors: Interview with Diane Sawyer, Kardashian Mixed Feelings
Bruce Jenner, who has been allegedly planning a gender transformation for quite some time now, will finally come on board and talk publicly about it in an interview with Diane Sawyer.
According to TMZ, Jenner will be speaking about his gender transformation in public, for the first time. The interview with Sawyer is slated to span for two hours on April 24, 2015, in which Jenner will talking about his new life as a female.
Reports suggest that Jenner will be using this opportunity to both reintroduce himself as well as educate, so others transitioning won't be subjected to the same scrutiny he's been experiencing. According to Page Six, Jenner will be speaking about his life since the age of five, identifying as a woman, his struggle with living as a man and the effect his transition has had on his family.
This news of his sex change has been perceived differently by all his family members. The Kardashian sisters allegedly said that Jenner won't be seen getting any kind of help or moral support from them. The popular runway coach, J. Alexander, has publicly announced that he will be right by Jenner's side through the transformation.
His ex-wife, Kris Jenner, however, doesn't seem to be taking the news all too well. According to Kris' sister, Karen Houghton, Bruce's big changes have been deeply humiliating for her. As with anyone, it has embarrassed my sister. It's been humiliating for her," according to Rolling Stone.
Reportedly, his daughters, Kendall, 18, and Kylie, 17, were also not too happy with the news of his intended public confession. Earlier, there was news that Jenner was planning to date women and change his name to "Belinda,' according to the Daily Mail.
