Caitlyn Jenner slams Ellen DeGeneres

Caitlyn Jenner has slammed talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, claiming that she has alienated her from the LGBT community. The TV personality and Olympian, who was previously known as Bruce Jenner, admitted to the blonde talk show favourite that in the past she wasn’t sure that she accepted gay marriage.

In her new book, Caitlyn claims that Ellen attempted to show a negative side of her by asking provoking questions about her options surrounding the issue of gay marriage. She said ‘I believed, as anyone would, that that was exactly what she wanted to talk about my progression in terms of changing attitude over the years.’ She went on to add ‘I am for it. I did not initially understand why marriage was so important, influenced no doubt by my own personal experience. Now I do, and it’s a wonderful thing to see.’ Ellen then accused Caitlyn of still not been onboard with the matter – Jenner denied this.

She then told radio host Howard Stern that this conversation has further alienated her from the LGBT community. Caitlyn has spoken out in the past about her difficulty fitting in since she made the transition to a woman. She recently also claimed that her family have lost interest in her and that she no longer hears from them.
