Ex-Olympian Bruce Jenner undergoing gender transition
Former Olympic medalist and TV personality Bruce Jenner is undergoing a gender transition into a woman.
Speculation has been rife for months about the changes to Jenner's physical appearance.
Now, a source close to the family has confirmed that the rumours are indeed true.
"(Jenner) is finally happy and his family is accepting of what he's doing," said the source, according to People.
"He's in such a great space. That's why it's the perfect time to do something like this.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star married Kris Kardashian in 1991 but split in 2013.
Together, the couple had two daughters - Kylie and Kendall.
When questioned in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, step-daughter Kim Kardashian said: "We support Bruce no matter what.
"I will say I think Bruce should tell his story his way... everyone goes through things in life... I think he'll share whenever the time is right."
She also believes that Jenner is at his "happiest".
Jenner is set to air his gender transformation journey as a docu-series on E! later this year.
