Caitlyn Jenner slammed for excluding Kylie and Kendall Jenner from 'fabulous' reunion: 'She abandoned her family'

JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI: In 2013, Caitlyn Jenner and her ex-wife announced their divorce due to irreconcilable differences, and two years later, Caitlyn publicly revealed her identity as a transwoman, coinciding with the finalization of their divorce. Caitlyn has constantly been criticized for her parenting style.

Recently, Caitlyn faced online criticism after posting a family reunion photo on her Instagram, where her daughters, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, were notably absent. Internet users questioned the father-daughter relationship, with some suggesting that Caitlyn's past absence in their lives might have contributed to the distant connection.

Caitlyn Jenner excludes Kylie and Kendall Jenner from her family reunion

Despite all members of the Jenner clan being present, including Caitlyn's children Brandon Jenner and Cassandra Marino with their kids, the photo of the family reunion posted on Caitlyn Jenner's Instagram account conspicuously lacked the presence of her most prominent daughters, Kylie and Kendall Jenner. The picture captured a sunny day out with some members donning swimwear while others opted for casual clothes, creating a relaxed family picnic vibe. Caitlyn sported a white t-shirt with black stripes, paired with knee-length jeans shorts, a tennis cap, gray shoes, and white socks while holding onto one of her daughters. Captioning the image as "Fabulous Jenner family reunion in Jackson!!," the event brought together several family members in a joyous gathering.

'Where's Brody, Kendall, and Kylie?'

Internet users slammed Caitlyn for not including the famous sisters in her reunion. An Instagrm user said, "a couple Jenners missing" while a second user questioned, "Where's Kylie and Kendall I guess they don't know them people." A third user mentioned, "Where's Brody, Kendall, and Kylie?" On Reddit people were making genuine and in-depth remarks about the father-daughter relationship one user said, "Let’s be real people. Kendall and Kylie were never close to the Jenners because Caitlyn was an absent father to the older Jenner children" and a second user added, "Tbh the person to blame here is Caitlyn. You can’t raise your two kids away from an entire side of their family & expect them to be close as adults." A user said, "She did abandon her family and started a new one. Twice." One user slammed Caitlyn saying, "Yep- they may have appeared to be closeish on the show but Caitlyn didn’t talk to her kids for years throughout Kendal and Kylie’s lives"

Caitlyn Jenner says, 'I’ve lost all relationship' with the Kardashian clan

According to Grazia, Caitlyn Jenner has revealed the extent of the estrangement between her and the Kardashian clan, stating that she has "lost all relationship" with her ex-wife and stepchildren. In an interview with Piers Morgan, Jenner expressed her sadness over the situation, confirming that she no longer speaks to any of the Kardashians. She shared, "I spent 23 years of my life with those kids – it’s difficult to talk about it, terribly terribly sad." Caitlyn maintains a close relationship with her biological children, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, whom she described as "my children are my life." However, her connection with the Kardashians has deteriorated significantly. She admitted not having spoken to Khloe in two years, and with Kris, it has been around a year, Kim for nine months, and Kourtney, she hasn't spoken to either. The strained relationship appears to have roots in Caitlyn's critical comments about Kris Jenner in her 2015 Vanity Fair interview following her transition, as well as the content of her memoir, which Kim perceived as dishonest. Despite feeling hurt by the situation, Caitlyn seems to have come to terms with it, acknowledging that her stepchildren "don't want [her] in their lives" and expressing her sadness over the backlash she faced from them.
