Since the interview, Jenner's wife Kris also spoke about her ex husband's bravery and while she didn't make a comment on the special, a source close to the Kardashian matriarch told People that Kris did know a little about what Bruce was going through.
"She knew that he struggled with gender identity," a Jenner source said. "She knew he had been on hormones and that his body had changed."
Despite the fact that Bruce had been taking hormones, the insider says that Kris "never knew Bruce wanted to be a woman. She thought Bruce had a little quirk and he asked her to keep it a secret, so she did."
The source also added that before their marriage, Kris had a sit down with both of Bruce's ex-wives and while she knew her soon to be husband had begun taking hormones, she simply thought he was going through a phase.
"Before Kris and Bruce got married, Kris assured his ex-wives that she knew about 'the issue,'" the Jenner insider says. "She wanted them to know that she thought it was just a phase and that she could 'fix' him."
