Bruce Jenner

Bruce Jenner will reportedly finally address his decision to transition to life as a woman in a two-hour long interview special later this month.

The exclusive sit-down discussion with veteran journalist Diane Sawyer will air on Friday, April 24th on ABC.

Now, the first trailer has been revealed, and if definitely seems like this interview will contain the admission we've all been waiting for.

The sneak peek, which shows Bruce from the back for most of it, was aired in a commercial break during last night's episode of Grey's Anatomy in the US.

Take a look…

Bruce Jenner is set to finally speak out about his decision to transition to life as a woman in a two-hour long interview special later this month.

The former Olympian may have finalised his divorce with Kris Jenner last year, but that doesn't mean she is happy about his decision to go public with his plans.

Kris' sister Karen Houghton has opened up about the family's reaction to Bruce's rumoured sex change, and she says Kris finds it "humiliating."

The Kardashian-Jenner clan have been keeping tight-lipped about the rumours, and so far only Kim Kardashian has even come close to addressing them, telling Entertainment tonight that she and her family support Bruce "one hundred per cent," no matter what he chooses to do.

However it seems the process has not been so easy for Kris to deal with, having split from Bruce in 2013 after 22 years of marriage.

"As with anyone, it has embarrassed my sister. It's been humiliating for her" Karen told RadarOnline

She revealed that the situation has also been difficult from Bruce and Kris' daughters, 17-year-old Kylie and 19-year-old Kendall. "I told Kendall and Kylie, I love your dad, I will always love him. I don't care what he is or does," Karen said. "I know this is hard on them."

The speculation and rumours can't be easy, but hopefully the whole family can come to terms with Bruce's decision over time.

News of Bruce Jenner's decision to transition to life as a woman has been slowly leaked over the last few months, but aside from some vague comments by Bruce's step-daughter Kim Kardashian and his mum Esther, nothing has been confirmed by Bruce himself.

Now though, the reality star is set to speak out for the first time.

Earlier this year it was announced that Bruce would open up to the world in a tell-all interview with veteran journalist Diane Sawyer, and the air date has finally been revealed as April 24th. 

The discussion, which TV network ABC has described as "far-ranging and exclusive" will be a two-hour long special titled "Bruce Jenner – The Interview."

Bruce's ex-wife Kris Jenner and her daughters Kim, Khloé and Kourtney are all set to travel to Armenia this month to find out more about the Kardashian heritage, and TMZ are reporting that they will still be away when the interview airs.

We hope not – we're counting on their Twitter reactions if we can't watch the interview live in Ireland!

Bruce is also apparently still planning on completing his own reality series for E! which will document his transition and his family's reaction, though it was reported last month that the former Olympian had put a halt to filming as he felt under too much pressure from producers.

Speaking back in January, Kim Kardashian said that she and her family support Bruce "one hundred per cent," though she made it clear it was up to Bruce to tell the world about his decision. "I think that when the time is right he'll talk about whatever he wants to talk about," she said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

American magazine Us Weekly has issued an apology to Kendall Jenner and her family after the model hit back at them for fabricating a number of quotes.

Earlier this week, Us' website published an interview with the 19-year-old in which she spoke openly about her father Bruce Jenner's decision to undergo a sex change.

"He's a wonderful man. And just because he's changing shoes now, so to speak, doesn't make him less wonderful. I will always love my dad, whether he's a man or a woman," the interview quoted Kendall as saying.

Hours later the reality star took to Twitter to blast the magazine, saying, "Shame on US Weekly for making up quotes. I NEVER said those things. I never spoke to them."

The article was still visible on the website for most of yesterday but a retraction and apology was finally published yesterday evening. 

The freelance reporter who wrote the article apparently still alleges that the quotes were true, but as there was no proof Us admitted that they had decided to remove the story from their site.

"When Ms. Jenner denied, via Twitter, that the interview took place, Us Weekly immediately reached out to the freelance reporter. He stood by the interview, and continues to maintain that the quotes are accurate," the statement read. 

"However, after attempting to reconfirm his account, editors of Us have concerns about the veracity of this interview and the circumstances under which it was obtained. We would like to retract the story entirely and have removed it from our website. We sincerely apologise to Ms. Jenner and her family."

That's that cleared up… for now anyway!

Last night we reported that Kendall Jenner had broken her family's silence to a US magazine about Bruce Jenner's decision to transition to life as a woman.

Gossip magazine Us Weekly published quotes online which they claimed Kendall had made to their reporter backstage at a Comedy Central event over the weekend.

According to the magazine, Kendall said of her father: "He's a wonderful man. And just because he's changing shoes now, so to speak, doesn't make him less wonderful. I will always love my dad, whether he's a man or a woman."

Now though, the 19-year-old has hit back at Us Weekly, claiming she not only never said those things but that she never spoke to their reporter at all.

Kendall took to Twitter late last night, first posting a more cryptic tweet which read, "how is it legal for someone to "quote" someone and publish it if in fact you never said what was quoted."

Two hours later she followed up with another tweet, this time mentioning the magazine by name and writing, "Shame on US Weekly for making up quotes. I NEVER said those things. I never spoke to them."

The story in question still appears on Us Weekly's site, and as well as the Bruce quotes it also features comments, supposedly from Kendall, about the rest of her family, her modelling career and growing up in the public eye.

Kendall Jenner has become the first Kardashian-Jenner sister to speak openly about their dad Bruce's decision to transition to life as a woman.

Her older sister Kim Kardashian did allude to Bruce's sex change in an interview earlier this year, saying that the family "support Bruce one hundred per cent."

However Kendall has finally spoken openly about Bruce's decision and what it means for her family.

Speaking backstage at Comedy Central's Justin Bieber roast over the weekend, the 19-year-old told Us Weekly that she will support her father no matter what.

"He's a wonderful man. And just because he's changing shoes now, so to speak, doesn't make him less wonderful. I will always love my dad, whether he's a man or a woman," she said.

Kendall said she will stand by her dad as he did for her and her siblings. "I love my dad. He's always been there for me and my sisters," she said.

Although no other family members except for Bruce's mother Esther have openly spoken about Bruce's sex change, sources have said the whole clan have rallied around him.

Bruce has six children and four stepchildren with his ex-wives Kris Jenner, Linda Thompson and Chrystie Crownover. Among them are Kendall, Kylie, Kim, Khloé and Kourtney – five of the family's most high profile members.

Speaking about the close bond she shares with her sisters, Kendall said the girls are always very supportive of one another. "We are all very tight, and we tell each other everything," she said. "I am so proud of all of them. I spend as much time with them as I possibly can."

Bruce Jenner's decision to transition to life as a woman has been all but confirmed from other sources, but he has yet to speak out about it himself – and now it's unclear when we will hear from him.

The reality star's mother Esther and step-daughter Kim have both spoken about in support of Bruce's choices, and up until now it was believed that Bruce himself would discuss his plans in a new TV show of his own.

However it's now been revealed that Bruce has decided to put the reality docuseries on hold, as he felt under too much pressure to change his plans to fit a tight filming schedule.

A source tells TMZ that Bruce "told producers two weeks ago he felt like they were rushing him and compromising his family by gunning for a May air date."  

The former Olympian understandably wants to make sure his children – particularly his three sons Brody, Brandon and Burt – are all comfortable with his decision before pressing ahead with the new show.

He reportedly felt like the show's producers were driving what happened more than he was and felt it wasn't a good move for him or his family at the moment.

Having recently being involved in a car crash in which a woman was tragically killed, Bruce also felt he needed time and space to let things settle.

There's a "99.9% chance the docuseries will happen," says a source close to the show, but Bruce is still entitled to back out if he wishes.

Despite the delay and possible cancellation of Bruce's reality show, his pre-recorded tell-all interview with Diane Sawyer will still air as planned, though no details have been announced yet.

It appears Bruce Jenner may be at fault for the tragic car crash he was involved in earlier this month.

One female driver was killed and seven other people were injured in the crash, which took place on the Pacific Coast Highway.

New evidence revealed shows that Bruce may have hit two cars during the crash. The first one hit was the white Lexus driven by Kim Howe, who died when her car was pushed into oncoming traffic and hit by a Hummer. The second car reportedly hit by Bruce was the black Prius in front.

A re-creation of the accident published by TMZ is said to accurately reflect the accident scene. Bruce's car, with a small trailer on the back, can clearly be seen hitting both the white Lexus and the black Prius.

Given that Bruce hit not just one but two cars, evidence now strongly suggests that he was the one at fault for following too closely behind other vehicles, and he may now face a charge of vehicular manslaughter.

Police are also said to be investigating whether Bruce may have been texting at the time of the crash, although his lawyer firmly denies this is true and says mobile phone records can be provided to show this.

The KUWTK star is said to have been more than willing to co-operate with police at the scene of the accident. "Bruce has nothing to hide and was very co-operative with cops, and appreciated their professionalism," a source told RadarOnline.

"During the entire process Bruce was obviously very, very shocked and inquiring about the other victims – this has been a total nightmare for him and Bruce is taking it very, very hard."

It's been close to two years since Khloé Kardashian and Lamar Odom's split, but now it seems like the pair could be re-kindling their romance.

Rumours of a possible reunion began last month when it was revealed that NBA played Lamar had filmed a "secret scene" with Bruce Jenner, either for KUWTK or for Bruce's new reality series. During the conversation, Lamar reportedly opened up about his feelings for Khloé, saying he never meant to hurt her.

The pair split in 2013 amid speculation of Lamar's alleged drug use and infidelity, but now it seems they could be trying to make things work again.

Although the ex-couple have yet to be seen in public together, Khloé and Omar have apparently been regularly meeting for the past few months, at a quiet hotel near Khloé's California mansion.

Speaking to the US edition of OK! magazine, a source said the couple have been seeing more and more of each other. "They've spent many nights together in the past couple of months… Lamar is so sorry for everything and is begging Khloé to take him back. He's been sober for six months and is determined to prove that he's a changed man."

The couple married in in 2009 and split in the summer of 2013, but even though Khloé filed for divorce in December 2013, Lamar never responded to the papers.

Although Khloé has not made any public indication that the couple could be reuniting, she did post a very telling quote to her Instagram page, which read, "He kissed her cheek, and then she knew that you could become homesick for people too."

Whatever happens, we hope Khloé is looking out for number one!

It's now Hollywood's worst kept secret that KUWTK star Bruce Jenner is transitioning to life as a woman.

Although his decision has been leaked from various sources – including Bruce's own mother, Esther Jenner – the reality star has yet to make any public statement himself.

However he recently pre-recorded a tell-all interview with Diane Sawyer in which he reportedly discusses his transition plans and reveals the name he will use as a female.

That name has not yet been publicly revealed, but previous reports have suggested it may be Brigitte or Belinda.

Although Bruce has been seen in public in recent months with longer hair, fuller lips, painted nails and even subtle diamond earrings, an insider said he "did not wear feminine make-up" for the interview.

When discussing the name he will use as a female, the source told Us Weekly that the 65-year-old "referred to her in the third person."

Bruce's step-daughter Kim Kardashian recently spoke out in support of the former Olympian, saying that she and her siblings "support Bruce one hundred per cent."

The recording Bruce's Diane Sawyer interview came just days after Bruce was involved in a terrifying car crash which tragically killed his neighbour Kim Howe. Since the accident, it's thought many old friends have reached out to Bruce, not just about the tragedy but about his transition.

"People who Bruce hasn't spoken to in forever are reaching out to him to offer support for his grieving process… But they are also letting him know that they support his transition too," a source told RadarOnline.

"Everything happens for a reason and Bruce is a firm believer in this. He was in such a great place before this happened and he will be in that place again after the dust has settled.''

Bruce himself released a statement earlier this week, offering his sympathies to Kim Howe's family. "I cannot pretend to imagine what this family is going through at this time. I am praying for them. I will continue to cooperate in every way possible," he said.

We're happy to hear that Bruce has finally made the decision to speak openly about his gender transition choice. The interview will air in May.

Bruce Jenner was involved in a terrifying car crash on Saturday which tragically left one woman dead, and he has now spoken out to offer his sympathies to all involved.

The reality star was driving his Cadillac Escalade along California's Pacific Coast Highway when he rear-ended a black Lexus, sending it crashing into another car and then into the path of oncoming traffic. The driver of the Lexus was killed at the scene.

Investigation into the crash is ongoing but Bruce is said to be co-operating fully with police, and yesterday released a statement about the "devastating" crash. "My heartfelt and deepest sympathies go out to the family and loved ones, and to all of those who were involved or injured in this terrible accident," he said.

"It is a devastating tragedy and I cannot pretend to imagine what this family is going through at this time. I am praying for them. I will continue to cooperate in every way possible." 

Police are currently examining mobile phone records to see if Bruce or any other drivers involved in the crash may have been texting while driving, although Bruce's publicist says he was not.

The KUWTK star also voluntarily had his blood tested for alcohol levels by police.

It's been a very difficult few weeks for Bruce, whose transition to life as a woman has been talked about more and more in the press – we hope that he has his family's care and support at this tough time.
