Kim Kardashian asked charity for help with Bruce Jenner's transition
Kim Kardashian asked officials at charity GLAAD for help as her famous family came to terms with her stepfather Bruce Jenner's sex change.
The former Olympian revealed he is transitioning to become a woman during an interview with newswoman Diane Sawyer which aired on Friday (24Apr15).
Kardashian has now opened up about undergoing family counselling
sessions and receiving advice from activists at GLAAD, the Gay &
Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, to learn how to adjust to the
changes and how to talk about Jenner's journey.
During an appearance on breakfast show Today on Monday (27Apr15),
the reality TV star says, "I think there is still an adjustment and
there's family therapy. We're really close... We all really support
him. Is it a hard adjustment? Yes... It's an adjustment of how to
deal with it and it's a daily process... We have been talking to
people from the GLAAD organisation and different organisations on
what do we call him? Do we say him or her? How do we be
respectful?
"Until that transition is done, we've learned you do refer to him
as 'him'. But Bruce has always been really, really good at
explaining everything to us, even though this is really new and
these have been newer feelings... Not newer feeling for him but for
us to digest. He's done a really good job at walking us through
it."
Jenner split from Kardashian's mother Kris in 2013 after more than
20 years of marriage.
