Bruce Jenner reportedly leaving Keeping Up With The Kardashians; rift between family members grows
Apparently, Bruce is out–but not in the way you might expect. The patriarch of the Jenner family is quitting Keeping Up With the Kardashians, per sources. He and Kris aren’t seeing eye-to-eye with regard to the news of Bruce’s gender transitioning (and upcoming reality series based around that event), and the family is getting tired of dealing with him. And the feeling is mutual: Bruce has been angry with the Kardashians for weeks over dishing what he wants kept secret.
Bruce is the one who wanted out of the show because he wants nothing to do with Kris and her empire….Bruce is being phased out of the show in the upcoming Season 10, but it is by his own choice. Bruce is definitely leaving the show willingly and cannot wait until he is no longer locked under the blanket of Kris’s contractual obligations.
The producers of KUWtK have allegedly decided to transition the show itself into more of a female-based drama. Which shouldn’t be too difficult, since Lamar Odom is out of the picture, Kanye doesn’t make appearances any more, and Rob is nowhere to be found.
In somewhat related news, it’s being reported that Bruce will likely not face charges for his role in the multi-car crash two weeks ago, which left one dead and seven injured. Jenner was not intoxicated at the time of the crash, nor was he speeding. Officers say he was driving “HUA,” which is not a punishable offense in California (yet).
What do you, the viewers at home, think? Will you miss Big Bruce on KUWtK? Are you looking forward to his new television program?
