Caitlyn Jenner has addressed her son Brody Jenner’s comments concerning feeling “abandoned” during his childhood. Brody Jenner, a reality TV personality known for his roles in MTV’s “The Hills” and “The Hills: New Beginnings”, responded candidly on the recent episode of “The Hills: New Beginnings”.
In his remarks, he stated, “I was just really, really hurt about it,” referring to a perceived lack of parental support during his formative years. The reality TV star expressed disappointment about not having his father present to guide him during those crucial childhood years.
Caitlyn Jenner, a former Olympic gold-medallist and well-known transgender rights advocate, has reacted publicly to her son’s feelings. Without dismissing Brody’s sentiments, she stated, “It’s always challenging to raise kids,” adding that “Every family has their issues. Ours are in the public.” Caitlyn confirmed that she has heard her son’s feelings and is dedicated to strengthening their relationship.
“Everyone’s got burns in their life. It’s about how you deal with those burns,” Caitlyn further commented on camera, indicating her willingness to address past challenges and move forward in a healthier manner. Both Brody Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner have made it clear they are ready to navigate through their issues to foster a healthier relationship.
The public reactions to these shared feelings illustrate the ongoing struggles many face due to familial issues, even when living in the public eye. However, the commitment from both Jenner parties to deal with their past and build a stronger relationship is an encouraging sign.
