Bruce Jenner Female Transformation: Kris Jenner Knew for Years Ex Struggled with ‘Sexual Identity’ [REPORT]

Last week reports surfaced that Kris Jenner was blindsided by her ex-husband's shocking confession that he wanted to become a female. At the time, TMZ reported that the Kardashian matriarch had no idea Bruce Jenner was undergoing a transformation to become a woman. Sources told the site that Jenner found out during a family meeting several weeks ago.

A new report by TMZ claims that Kris Jenner isn't telling the truth and knew before she married Bruce that he "had issues with his sexual identity." A source close to the Jenner family said that the former Olympian mentioned a sex change several years ago, but Kris wanted to keep it hush-hush because she allegedly feared it would "hurt the brand."

For years Kris and Bruce never talked about his desire to change genders, the source told TMZ. Reportedly, Bruce's sons are also upset with Kim Kardashian because of the interview she did with "Entertainment Tonight" in which she confirmed that her step-father was on a "journey."

It's been reported that Bruce broke the news to his family little by little and will publicly address his changing appearance for the first time on Season 10 of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians." His family meeting - which is rumored to have not gone well - was taped for the reality show.

According to The Wrap, Bruce will also discuss his "journey" during a tell-all interview with Diane Sawyer, airing in May. It's been reported that he's already started filming certain segments of the interview. In addition, Bruce is working on a docu-series about his transformation for E!. Sources previously told TMZ that the series will premiere after the finale of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

"He is finally happy and his family is accepting of what he's doing. He's in such a great space. That's why it's the perfect time to do something like this," a source told People magazine.
