AceShowbiz - At such a young age, Kylie Jenner had to face her dad's gender transition from Bruce Jenner into Caitlyn Jenner earlier this year. While Ellen DeGeneres thought it would be tough for her to accept her dad's transition, Kylie said the opposite. She loves having Caitlyn more than Bruce.
During a taped interview on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" which will be airing on Monday, November 30, Kylie said, "I like her better than Bruce." The 18-year-old reality TV star then explained, "We talk about makeup 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."
The youngest daughter of the Jenner-Kardashian clan then recalled the first time she found out her dad cross-dressing. "I've honestly known about it for a really long time and we actually caught him then dressing up as a girl. When my sister and I were like 6 and 7 maybe. So we've known for a while that there was something, but it was never talked about," Kylie confessed.
Ellen then asked Kylie whether or not her dad wanted to talk about make-up when she was Bruce. "Honestly, like I'd be with my girlfriends sometimes and he 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 [as] there's no secrets," Kylie explained.
Caitlyn is currently in a good place following her transition. "She's really living her authentic true self," Kylie revealed, followed by applause from the audience. "And I feel like that's awesome and also I want to be someone from my generation to like be an example because I think that's so awesome and I think that other girls and boys my age will maybe see that I'm so accepting and be accepting of other people too."
