Bruce Jenner is expected to address his reported transition from male to female
Bruce, who divorced his wife of 22 years Kris Jenner in December 2014, is thought to have chosen to speak to Diane about his decision to become a woman because she has always been very supportive of the LGBT community.Bruce has maintained a dignified silence amidst increasing speculation about his appearance this year – but in February, his mother Esther confirmed that her son was transitioning to become a woman. "I just learned about (his transition). Bruce filled me in, and we had a very long, long, long talk about it," she told Radar Online."I have never been more proud of Bruce for who he is, himself as a father, as an Olympian, a wonderful public speaker," Esther added. "He instils enthusiasm in people. He's gifted. "Right now I am more proud of him for what he’s allowing himself to do. I am more proud of him now than when he stood on that podium and put the gold medal around his neck. He deserves all the respect. I love him whole-heartedly. I love him like I always have."
