Khloe Kardashian Says She Still Calls Caitlyn For ‘Bruce’: ‘We Are Allowed To’


Khloe Kardashian is one of the family members who have been a huge support to Caitlyn Jenner’s transition. Khloe has always said that Bruce should do what makes him happy prior to the transition, but it is taking her a while to get used to Caitlyn. Even though the world is adjusting to this former athlete becoming a woman, Kardashian still calls Caitlyn her old name.

Khloe Kardashian recently sat down with an Australian media network and discussed the changes that have been happening in her life. With her divorce finalized and Rob Kardashian living at her house, Khloe is creating a new way of life.

According to a new PEOPLE report, Khloe Kardashian is now revealing that Caitlyn Jenner’s switch from Bruce to Caitlyn has been tough on the family. In addition, Kardashian is having a hard time adjusting to seeing her father figure in a new way.

“We don’t like to say that Bruce is gone, per se. We, my sisters and I, we will call Caitlyn ‘Bruce,’ and we’ve been told that’s completely fine,” Khloe Kardashian has revealed in a recent interview, sharing that she has a hard time making the adjustment.

“She has told us we are allowed to call her any name we want to. Because on the phone, when she calls me, it’s the same voice as Bruce. And if I’m not physically with her, it’s hard to remember in the moment that I’m talking to Caitlyn, if that makes sense,” Khloe adds.

Kardashian doesn’t mean to disrespect Jenner by calling Caitlyn ‘Bruce’ when they are talking. Some transgendered communities do think that it is disrespectful to do so, but Khloe says that Caitlyn doesn’t mind being referred to by her old name.

“There was a hard time for the entire family, that we were all transitioning with her, but in front of an audience,” Khloe Kardashian has revealed, adding, “That’s not really the normal way to go about it. It’s a beautiful thing that she’s transitioned and that she is strong enough to have her own voice and wanting to make such monumental, beautiful moves and be that crusader.”

Khloe has been working on herself as well. She recently settled her divorce from Lamar Odom and has been working out to get her life back on track. In addition, Kardashian has been a support system for her sister Kourtney, who is dealing with plenty of drama from Scott Disick. According to the Inquisitr, Kardashian admits that all of the rumors have been hurtful to her.
