Kim Kardashian Opens Up About Strained Relationship With Caitlyn Jenner
There still seems to be some bad blood between Kim Kardashian and Caitlyn Jenner.
Kim visited The View on June 20, 2017, and she got real about her relationship with her former stepdad, who had caused major issues within the family after the release of her memoir The Secrets Of My Life.
Regarding the current feud between mom Kris and Caitlyn, Kim said, "Maybe their stories are different, maybe their accounts are different. I don't want to discredit her feelings."
Kim continued, "When all of us were there witnessing something and seeing things really different, it was just a little bit surprising to me."
However, the social media star reveals that she still sees Caitlyn as family, having known her since she was young. "She'll always be my stepdad and always be a person that raised me and taught me so much in life," Kim explained. "I'll never forget what Caitlyn instilled in us in kids and was a part of who I am today...She'll always be a part of me. Have I talked to her in the last couple of months? No."
Kim's not the only Kardashian that's been keeping her distance from Caitlyn in recent years. Kim's sister Khloé reportedly hasn't spoken to Caitlyn in over two years. In a 2016 interview with Howard Stern, Khloé admitted to feeling betrayed by Caitlyn, having reportedly found out about her stepdad's transition during a business meeting rather than from Caitlyn herself.
"We felt so, like, what the f***? We've been asking you, and why do [business] people know?" Khloé said. "I never want someone to feel like they have a one-up on our family. We've never turned our backs on each other yet with all the cluster f**ks of s*** in our lives, so why would we now?"
Hopefully, the whole Kardashian-Jenner clan can get along again one day.
