Famously controversial presenter and journalist Piers Morgan is delving back into the world of celebrity once again as he returns for his new series of Life Stories.
The second episode features TV personality Caitlyn Jenner, who is set to reveal all about gender reassignment surgery and her clash with the Kardashian clan, claiming that her choices are “none of their business”.
What is it?
The popular programme sees 52-year-old Morgan talk to one star per episode, addressing sensitive topics, key milestones and probing questions about their life-span.
Who is Caitlyn Jenner?
Jenner is first on the line-up of stars to sit on a sofa, pouring out their life secrets and addressing untold rumours.
68-year-old Jenner is a former Olympic athlete and previously married to “momager” of the Kardashian’s, Kris.
Jenner previously identified as male under the name of Bruce, but publicly announced her identity as a transgender woman on the 2015 cover issue of Vanity Fair after battling gender dysphoria.
She has since said: "for all intents and purposes, I'm a woman".
She has undergone cosmetic surgery and revealed in her new memoir that she had gender reassignment surgery in January 2017.
What’s Jenner’s feud with the Kardashians about?
The family fight began during the divorce between Jenner and Kris and continued when Jenner started her transition. The argument was fuelled by Jenner’s tell-all book.
In The Secrets of My Life, the former Olympian claims Kris knew about her gender identity before they got married, a point that Kardashian-Jenner clan say isn’t true.
Jenner referred to herself as a “punching bag” throughout her marriage to Kris in the book and admitted she’d grown distant from some in the Kardashian family since her transition. Kris confirmed that in a recent episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians saying she never wanted to speak to her again.
When is it?
Piers Morgan's Life Stories is coming to ITV at 9pm on Thursday 4th January.
