Kendall & Kylie Jenner Reflect on Caitlyn Jenner's Transition 5 Years Later: 'She's Our Hero'

Kendall and Kylie Jenner are speaking out about their parent Caitlyn Jenner‘s transition five years later.

“When my dad came out as transgender, our relationship grew,” Kendall, 24, told People. “She could finally be honest with me. We could talk about deep emotions she was feeling through that time. Growing up my dad was not usually one to talk about her feelings so that was a big step for us.”

Kendall added, “I used to watch old Olympic videos of my dad and wish I could be a part of those spectacular moments with her. There are so many stories she tells about her life and I love to just sit there and listen. She has lived so many amazing lives in one lifetime. My favorite thing to learn from my dad is about my dad. Inspiring then and inspiring now.”

“Because of my dad’s bravery, I’ve learned to love what I love and not be ashamed of it,” she adds. “She’s been my role model since before I can even remember, from sports growing up to now with her wisdom. She’s so brave and I aspire to be as brave as her one day,” she said.

Kylie herself added, “My dad has always been an inspiration to me, from winning the gold medal at the Olympics to getting her pilot’s license. However, watching her live out her true self has been the most inspiring of them all.”

And they both agree, “She’s our hero.”
