Released late this afternoon, Caitlyn Jenner's stunning Vanity Fair cover quickly set the internet alight, trending in Ireland and worldwide. 

Indeed, Guinness World Records announced this evening that the former Olympian's new Twitter handle, @CaitlynJenner, had reached 1m followers faster than any other account: it took her just 4hours and 3minutes to notch up the seven-figure tally.

And some very famous faces were also quick to react, taking to their online profiles to praise the reality TV star.

Here, we round-up the most powerful and moving messages of support…
