Kylie Jenner Explains the Real Reason Why She Likes Caitlyn More Than Bruce Jenner

Kylie Jenner is speaking candidly about her current relationship with Caitlyn Jenner.

Close to six months after the Vanity Fair cover was released, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star admits her relationship with the Olympic athlete is closer than ever before. During a new interview for Monday's all-new Ellen DeGeneres Show, the 18-year-old said:

"I like her better than Bruce. We talk about makeup and clothes. We bond a lot more, but not only that. I feel like there's not a huge secret in the family. I feel like there was always this big secret. And I've honestly known about it for a really long time and we actually caught him then dressing up as a girl. When my sister and I were like 6 and 7 maybe. So we've known for a while that there was something, but it was never talked about."

After hearing the honest admission, E! news reports that Ellen DeGeneres followed up by asking if Caitlyn ever wanted to talk about makeup back when she was Bruce Jenner. Again, Kylie got a sense that "there was something" that wasn't being addressed.

"Honestly, like I'd be with my girlfriends sometimes and he would come in and be like what are you guys talking about and kind of joke around and I knew there was something, but now I feel like we hang out a lot more there's no secrets.

"She's really living her authentic true self. And I feel like that's awesome and also, I want to be someone from my generation to like be an example because I think that's so awesome and I think that other girls and boys my age will maybe see that I'm so accepting and be accepting of other people too."
