When asked, Brody said that his mother was incredible. “[My] father, Bruce at the time, wasn’t around that much,” Brody said. “They split, and then he met a woman. She had kids as well when they met, and then they had kids together.” Of course, that would be Kris Jenner, whose “kids” included Rob, Kourtney, Khloe, and Kim Kardashian.

Caitlyn Jenner and Kris had two kids of their own – Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner. Brody is actually Caityln’s fourth child, and he said that his dad “abandoned” him when he married Kris.

While Brody Jenner said that he had cut his dad a lot of slack over their lives for the abandonment issues, he still has a problem with how the transition played out. Brody doesn’t seem to mind that his dad transitioned, he just doesn’t like how they made it such a public spectacle.

“I will say he was going through his own struggles transitioning,” Brody said. “All that was put on TV and there were these very intimate moments we would have and it was all filmed and it just felt very invasive and not very genuine, I would say.”

Brody said that Caitlyn did apologize for abandoning him while he was growing up. He said it was “a real, sincere apology.” He also said it was the first time in his life that he got to hear his dad say he was sorry about not being there for him. “Honestly, it meant a lot,” he said.
