Caitlyn Jenner Admits She Thought About Suicide After Separating From Kris, Opens Up About Her Transition


Caitlyn Jenner continues to make some shocking revelations about her controversial transition into being a woman.

On Monday, the I Am Cait star was in Cambridge to speak at the university’s union. Meeting with hundreds of students, Caitlyn opened up about her controversial memoir and shared some interesting details about her transitioning.

In a candid interview, Caitlyn revealed that prior to coming out as a transgender, her ex-wife, Kris Jenner, already knew about her sexuality. The former decathlete claimed that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star was aware of her true gender even at the beginning of their marriage.

Caitlyn, formerly known as Bruce, admitted that while married to the famous momager, she had her “own little getaways” where she could just be herself.

The Olympic gold-medalist also reiterated that their separation was not because of her sexuality.

“As far as us going our separate directions, it wasn’t about trans issues at all. It just didn’t work like it use to work.”

In the same interview, Caitlyn shocked the audience when she admitted that she thought about committing suicide after her separation with Kris. Apparently, the nasty split was considered the lowest point of Caitlyn’s life.

The transgender icon bluntly admitted that her failed marriage has caused her so much stress that she contemplated taking her own life. Apparently, after the split, Caitlyn didn’t know what to do, especially since her children already knew what was going on. Not to mention, all the attention she got from the media.

“I decided I got to do something. At one point I thought about suicide. I really kind of reached a low point. But I thought I don’t want to silence my voice.”

Caitlyn Jenner also talked about her current relationship with the famous Kardashian family. According to the reality star, she has not been in contact with the Keeping Up With the Kardashians stars for over a year.

However, Caitlyn pointed out that her daughters, Kendall and Kylie, have been always there for her since the very beginning.

In the interview, Caitlyn admitted that she was “really hurt” after the Kardashian sisters targeted her online. She also revealed that Kim, in particular, became distant with her following the release of her tell-all book.

“They don’t want me in their lives, the bashed me pretty badly. It’s devastating when your kids do that. It really hurt.”

Despite the cold shoulder she has been getting from the famous clan, Caitlyn noted that she was “blessed” to be part of the family and will always be thankful for that. Although they are currently not on speaking terms, the transgender expressed her hopes that they will be able to set aside their differences and reconnect soon.

Caitlyn Jenner is currently busy working on her foundation and continues to fight for the rights of the LGBTQ community. She is also working on a new television show but no further details have been revealed yet.
