Kanye made Kim Kardashian understand my gender transition: Bruce Jenner

London: Bruce Jenner has Kanye West to thank for making his stepdaughter Kim Kardashian West understand why the athlete decided to undergo a gender transition.

The 65-year-old Olympian, who confirmed he had transitioned into a woman, recalled the conversation the 'Bound 2' rapper had with his wife Kim, which he says helped her come to terms with his transition, reported Female First.

"They were talking about it and (Kanye) says to Kim, 'Look, I can be married to the most beautiful woman in the world, and I am. I can have the most beautiful little daughter in the world, and I have that.

But I'm nothing if I can't be me. If I can't be true to myself, they don't mean anything.' Since then, Kimberly has been by far the most accepting, and the easiest to talk to about it," Jenner said.
