Kylie Jenner has admitted that while she initially struggled to come to terms with her father's gender transition, she now prefers Caitlyn to Bruce. The 18-year-old opened up about her relationship with Caitlyn during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, explaining that they have really bonded in recent months. "I like her better than Bruce," Kylie told Ellen, explaining: "Because we talk about make-up and clothes we bond a lot more, but not only that. I feel like there's not a huge secret in the family. I feel like there was always this big secret."
Kylie Jenner said she prefers Caitlyn to Bruce
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star admitted that she and her sister Kendall had caught their dad dressing up in women's clothes when they were younger, but never discussed it as a family. However since bravely announcing her gender transition, Caitlyn appears to have developed a closer relationship with her youngest daughter.
"Honestly, like I'd be with my girlfriends sometimes and he then would come in and be like 'What are you guys talking about?' and kind of joke around and I knew there was something, but now I feel like we hang out a lot more there's no secrets," Kylie said. "She's really living her authentic true self."
Kylie also said that she wanted to set an example to her peers of accepting other people, telling Ellen that Caitlyn is "the same exact person she just looks different I guess".
