Kendall Jenner recently shared insights into her complicated relationship with Caitlyn Jenner during an episode of Hulu’s popular reality show, “The Kardashians.” The 29-year-old model admitted that she and her father hold contrasting views on various matters. Despite their differences, Kendall expressed her love and commitment to maintaining a strong connection with Caitlyn.
Kendall’s Confession on Family Dynamics
In a confessional segment, Kendall said, “I have to compartmentalize my relationship with my dad.” She acknowledged the challenges posed by their differing opinions but emphasized that they share a good relationship overall. Kendall admitted, “Sometimes I get frustrated with her with certain things.”
Caitlyn’s Return to “The Kardashians”
Caitlyn, 76, made a notable return to the show after years of absence. Her appearance followed an invitation from Kris Jenner, who wanted to say farewell to their former family home as it was being put on the market. During this episode, Kris humorously remarked about Caitlyn’s affinity for watching Fox News, stating, “Of course she is,” when asked what Caitlyn was doing.
Family Reactions and Relationships
- Kendall and her sister Kylie were both excited yet surprised to see their father.
- Kendall mentioned the distant relationship between Caitlyn and their mother, Kris.
- Kylie remarked, “I don’t know if my parents will ever be best friends again, but this is definitely a great first step.”
Political Differences
Although Kendall did not specify the reasons for their differing views, Caitlyn has been openly supportive of the Republican party and former President Donald Trump. In April 2024, Caitlyn urged her followers on social media to vote for Trump, showcasing her political alignment.
Maintaining Communication
Despite their contrasting perspectives, Kendall is committed to staying connected with Caitlyn. She recognizes the isolation Caitlyn may feel, stating, “I always want to include her.” Their relationship illustrates the complexity of navigating familial ties marked by differing ideologies.
While Kendall has kept her political views relatively private in recent years, she once supported Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. The Kardashian-Jenner family generally maintains a low profile regarding political commentary, although Kim Kardashian notably engaged with Trump on prison reform in 2018.
