65-year-old American reality television star Bruce Jenner, now known as Caitlyn Jenner, debuts on the cover of Vanity Fair this July.
The former track and field athlete says in her interview, “Caitlyn doesn’t have any secrets. As soon as the Vanity Fair cover comes out, I’m free.”
Jenner was married for nearly 24 years to Kris Jenner (formerly Kardashian). Following her divorce in 2015, Jenner came out in a television interview as a trans woman, initially preferring male pronouns until her transition was more complete. On June 1, 2015, Jenner revealed her new name, Caitlyn, and her use of female pronouns officially.
For Vanity Fair’s July cover, Caitlyn Jenner was photographed by Annie Leibovitz in her Malibu home and was interviewed by sports writer Buzz Bissinger for the cover story.
“It’s not about the fanfare, it’s not about people cheering in the stadium, it’s not about me going in the street and everybody giving me an, that-a-boy-Bruce pat on the back. This is about your life.”
“Bruce always had to tell a lie,” Jenner continues. “He was always living that. Every day, you always had a secret, from morning ‘til night. Caitlyn doesn’t have any secrets. As soon as the Vanity Fair cover comes out, I’m free.”
Vanity Fair’s July 2015 issue will be available in newsstands starting June 9.
