THE TRUTH ABOUT HER DIVORCE

While many believed that Caitlyn’s divorce with Kris resulted from her decision to come out as a woman, she proved otherwise. She said:

“After 23 years, Kris and I went our separate directions. My identity; it was not a big part of us separating. There was [sic] so many other issues out there.”

However, Caitlyn’s identity crisis, which resulted in self-exasperation, contributed to her temper with Kris towards the end of their union.

BETTER THROUGH TIME

The momager initially thought that her former husband chose a name that began with the letter K to keep up with their family. “No, I’m going with a C. There’s got to be a little separation between church and state,” Caitlyn corrected her.
