Kendall Jenner, 24, and Kylie Jenner, 22, are speaking out in support of their dad Caitlyn Jenner, 70, almost five years after she announced she was transitioning. The proud daughters gushed over what they learned from their Olympian parent after she courageously told them one by one about her intention to transition into a female, in a new family interview with People, and it says a lot about their close relationship.
“Honestly, if one of them had had a problem, I wouldn’t have done it,” Caitlyn told the outlet before her two girls expressed their own feelings. “When my dad came out as transgender, our relationship grew,” Kendall, who also admitted to being “a daddy’s girl my whole life”, explained. “She could finally be honest with me. We could talk about deep emotions she was feeling through that time. Growing up my dad was not usually one to talk about her feelings so that was a big step for us.”
“I used to watch old Olympic videos of my dad and wish I could be a part of those spectacular moments with her,” the model continued. “There are so many stories she tells about her life and I love to just sit there and listen. She has lived so many amazing lives in one lifetime. My favorite thing to learn from my dad is about my dad. Inspiring then and inspiring now.”
