UPDATE
After Diane Sawyer’s ‘The Interview’ with Bruce Jenner, gave the world a look into the former Olympian’s life, I think it’s safe to say that many people had questions and a lot to think about. The Kardashian’s who have only dropped breadcrumbs as far as details about Bruce go, took to Twitter to show their support.
Kris Jenner who was fired up earlier about being accused of declining for comments posted after the show, ‘Not only was I able to call him my husband for 25 years and father of my children, I am now able to call him my hero.’
Khole, who Bruce said was taking the news the hardest, posted, ‘Just finished watching the #BruceJennerInterview with the family. Bruzer, I’m soooo proud of you! Dads really are heros’
The invisible Rob even showed his support quietly with a simple retweet of Ellen DeGeneres that said,’Bruce Jenner is a beautiful, brave human being. Sending him lots of love. He’s saving lives and opening minds tonight.’
Awwwww!

The man that we formally knew as ‘The World’s Greatest Athlete’ sat down with Diane Sawyer Friday night for an in-depth interview about his journey transitioning into a woman. Ex-wife Kris Jenner was painted as unsupportive during the ABC special and fired back on Twitter.
Yes, for all intents and purposes, I’m a woman,” Jenner told Diane Sawyer in the interview on ABC.
He has the “soul of a female.” He said “my brain is much more female than it is male” even though he has all the “male parts.”
The interview took an interesting turn when addressing Jenner’s role on E!’s Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Jenner said the real story was hidden within him.
“I had the story,” Jenner said. “We’ve done 420 episodes, I think, and the entire run I kept thinking to myself … the one real true story in the family was the one I was hiding.”
He felt like he was hiding something that could help others and make a difference.
Sawyer mentioned in the interview that she had sought comments from Bruce’s ex-wives. His first and second ex-wvies both had positive comments for Jenner and wished him well. But the most recent ex, Kris Jenner had declined for comments.
Kris denied this in a tweet to celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton tweeting, ‘@PerezHilton f?!k you Perez no one asked me to comment ….and I’m sitting with Bruce now watching this show so let’s keep it real…LOL….’
ABC quickly responded, “ABC sent an email to her publicity team more than once. They called and said no comment.”
According to Sawyer this will be the last interview we see Bruce Jenner as a man.
