Kris Jenner has finally met with her ex Caitlyn face-to-face
Since transitioning to life as a woman, Caitlyn Jenner has had to "reintroduce" herself to various members of her family, from her daughters and step-daughters to her mother Esther.
Now though, the reality star has finally had one of the most anticipated meetings of all, with her ex-wife Kris Jenner. The former couple met in person yesterday at Caitlyn's Malibu home for what was no doubt an emotional couple of hours.
Kris' black SUV was seen leaving the Malibu mansion yesterday afternoon, confirming speculation the exes had met. According to Hollywood Life, "momager" Kris was the one who initiated the meeting, despite being hesitant to see Caitlyn in person immediately following her transformation.
"Kris was super uncomfortable and rigid at first. She definitely didn’t know how to act around Caitlyn. They avoided anything serious for awhile making small talk about clothes and the kids," a source told the gossip site. However the ice was soon broken as the pair laughed about “looking fat in paparazzi photos."
Although Kris was openly distraught and angry about the news that Caitlyn was set to publicly transition to life as a woman, she has come out of the situation with the utmost respect for her ex, who she was married to for 23 years.
Speaking in Cannes last month, following the publication of Caitlyn's now-iconic Vanity Fair cover, the 59-year-old said she thought her bravery was "amazing," adding, "I think that someone following their dream is truly inspirational to a lot of people. You have to do what makes you happy."
And it seems the feeling is mutual, as Caitlyn had nothing but love and praise for her ex-wife in a recent interview.
"You know, Kris is a really good woman and I love her to death," the former Olympian said during E!'s two-part documentary About Bruce. "And the love and acceptance I have gotten from Kris is absolutely overwhelming."
