Caitlyn Jenner who was formerly the Olympian Bruce Jenner is apparently regretting the decision of undergoing sex change surgery, claims the author of a new book on the Kardashians.
“There’s a chance she’ll de-transition in the next few years,” said Ian Halperin, the author of Kardashian Dynasty: The Controversial Rise of America’s Royal Family, reports the Independent.
Ian further claimed that multiple sources revealed that the Olympic gold-medalist has been miserable.
However, Caitlyn’s representative refuted the claims. “Not worth commenting on such an idiotic report. Of course, it’s not true.” the representative told the New York Daily News.
The 66-year-old, who was previously married to Kris Kardashian Jenner, has been a strong advocate of transgender issues after she announced her new identity on the reality TV show I Am Cait last June.
She was also presented with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYs last summer.
Ian still believes the transition has been difficult. “It hasn’t been easy for Caitlyn. It’s been very hard,” he says a friend of Jenner’s told him.
“She’s thrilled she has raised awareness about how transgender people have long been discriminated against, but I think there’s a chance she’ll de-transition in the next couple years. I don’t think it would surprise anybody in her inner circle. It has been much harder than she anticipated. My heart goes out to her and I know her true friends will be there to support her on whatever path she chooses,” he added.
He further said that the sources believe that Caitlyn, who was married thrice and has six children, may de-transition because she is still interested in women.
Caitlyn spoke about being the face of transgender while visiting a Brooklyn school earlier this month.
“Maybe this is the reason God put me on this earth, to tell my story, to try to make a difference in the world.
“Because this story and this issue – trans, gender identity, non-conforming, whatever it may be – is bigger than what I did back in ’76 and winning the Games. It’s bigger than breaking world records and doing all that kind of stuff. This is about life. This is about life and death. People destroy their lives over what we all kind of deal with,” she told Nicholas Krist of the New York Times.
