The future of Bruce Jenner's show which is expected to document his transition from man to woman is unclear after the production is allegedly halted. The news came after he was involved in a fatal car accident that left one person dead, but the reason behind the halt is reportedly not that.
Rumor has it, the former athlete has a second thought about working with E! for the show. "Bruce's primary goal is to bring awareness to this issue in order to help others [in the transgender community]," a source told PEOPLE. "He is not sure that E! and a reality show is the best format to do that."
He "wants this to be taken seriously so that [his situation] can have the most positive impact on society's perception of the transgender community," the source continued. "He wants to explore other options, but Bunim/Murray are making him feel trapped in his contract and are not allowing him to explore other avenues to tell his story."
Before this rumor of his having concerns about being taken seriously, Bruce had already drawn criticism from transgender community. He was accused of using his transition to sell a TV show. He stayed silent on the accusation.
Bruce Jenner appeared in all seasons of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" before he split from Kris Jenner, but rumor suggested he was excluded from the renewed contract following his divorce from the Kardashian momager and his reported plan of getting his own show.
