Caitlyn
Jenner, born Bruce Jenner, who announced his/her transition from man to
woman last year, has considered de-transitioning, the author of a new
book about the Kardashian family has revealed.
Ian Halperin, the author of “Kardashian Dynasty:
The Controversial Rise of America’s Royal Family,” said that, while
researching his book, multiple sources told him that the former Olympian
had been miserable for months and has considered transitioning back to a
man.
“One source confirmed to me Caitlyn has made whispers of
‘sex change regret,’ hinting she might go back to being Bruce Jenner,”
Halperin said.

Halperin
said that one long-time friend told him that, while Jenner was
“thrilled” to champion transgender issues, the reality TV personality
could de-transition “in the next couple years.”
“It hasn’t been
easy for Caitlyn, it’s been very hard,” the friend said, according to
Halperin. “She’s thrilled she has raised awareness about how transgender
people have long been discriminated against but I think there’s a
chance she’ll de-transition in the next couple years. I don’t think it
would surprise anybody in her inner circle. It has been much harder than
she anticipated. My heart goes out to her and I know her true friends
will be there to support her on whatever path she chooses.”
According
to Halperin, multiple sources close to the Kardashian family told him
that Jenner might revert back because she retains her interest in
females.
“She’s still into women and wants to meet the right one,” Halperin recalled one friend saying.
Based on his research, Halperin believes that Jenner will
de-transition in the next couple of years, telling the public how
difficult the transition was, but noting that she was happy to help
raise awareness about transgender right.
Jenner has hinted at
trepidation over the transition in the past. A lengthy Vanity Fair story
recalls a panic attack that she experienced after undergoing
facial-feminization surgery, during which she wondered, “What did I just
do? What did I just do to myself?”
In his book, the #1 New York
Times best-selling author and award-winning journalist reveals that
Jenner’s ex-wife, Kris Jenner, was very aware of her husband’s desire to
transition, and forced him into religious conversion therapy, and
attempted to get him to attend church in an effort to save their
marriage, theWrap reports
