This brings us to Kylie Jenner in the videos in in this thread above
This brings up some interesting historical background information about Timothée Chalamet’s & his beau Kylie Jenner (see earlier posts in this topic thread)
Caitlyn Jenner was born as a male in 1949 as Bruce Jenner & came out as transgender in April 2015, and began living publicly as a woman in 2015.
Caitlyn Jenner as Bruce Jenner ( a male) won the Gold medal in decathlon at the Montreal Olympics in 1976. The term “world’s greatest athlete” is used for a male athlete who wins the decathlon (10 track & field events over 2 days). For females there is no decathlon only a pentathlon (5 events heptathlon came after 1980). In 1976 there was a sex (chromosome) test & trans men & women were not allowed in Olympics & Caitlin Jenner would not have been allowed. Trans people competing in sports is an extremely complex & controversial issue these days.
Bruce Jenner , before he became a she (Caitlyn Jenner) has 6 biological children from three marriages.
Here’s a list of her children:
1. Burt Jenner – son (with first wife Chrystie Crownover)
2. Cassandra “Casey” Jenner – daughter (with Chrystie Crownover) The Independent
3. Brandon Jenner – son (with second wife Linda Thompson)
4. Brody Jenner – son (with Linda Thompson)
5. Kendall Jenner – daughter (with third wife Kris Jenner)
6. Kylie Jenner – daughter (with Kris Jenner)
In addition to these, Caitlyn was also step-parent to Kris Jenner’s children from her previous marriage (Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, and Rob Kardashian) while married to Kris Jenner.
So Kris has 6 children biologically. Both daughters Kim Kardashian & Kylie Jenner are billionaires via fashion industry & TV
Rob Kardashian became famous (or infamous) as one of the lawyers on OJ Simpson’s defense team in OJ’s murder trial in 1995 (dubbed the “Trial of the century”). (OJ Simpson was a super famous college & pro American football legend in 1970s& 1980s & then a movie actor in movies like The Naked Gun)
