Caitlyn recalled the first time she met Kris, which took place before she transitioned and was known as Bruce.
"I had been single for six years, and really kind of struggling with myself and who I was and how I fit into the world. I was just turning 40 and met Kris on a blind date, we hit it off from day one. Was it love at first sight? Pretty close to that, yes.
"I was totally impressed with her and how she lived her life - she had four kids, I had four kids… and we got married five and a half months later! It was very quick."
However, nowAdays the former couple have very little, if any, communication.
"Well Kris, I really never talk to anymore. Yeah, it's sad. If there's any communication, my manager kind of talks to her."
