    Caitlyn Jenner was attracted to Kris Jenner because she was "strong and independent"

    The 'I Am Cait' star was married to the 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' matriarch between 1991 and 2005 and she has confessed she loved how "classy and different" Kris was


    Speaking on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her podcast, Caitlyn shared: "For me, she was very different. She was very classy, had a great sense of style. She was very smart. I always liked strong women and she was very strong. I have always put kind of women up on a pedestal and I’d love strong women, independent women. And she was all of those things and she was very different for me. I mean, she lived in Beverly Hills and I’m not a Beverly Hills person."

    Meanwhile, Sophia Hutchins, Caitlyn's friend and manager, previously revealed Kris and Caitlyn "put their differences aside" for their children - Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner.

    Sophia said: "Certainly they’ve had their issues … as any exes have, but I see two amazing parents that really put those differences aside for their kids. And I think this misconception is just outdated, you know, I think it’s over, there’s no feud going on."

    Sophia is close to Kris too and praised her for being the "most generous, giving, loving person".

    She added: "There’s this misconception out there that Kris has a feud with us or Caitlin or me. I am so close to Kris. I speak to Kris all the time. It’s not like we’re like girlfriends having drinks all the time, but you know, if there’s ever a concern or ever a question or anything I have needed help with Kris would be the first phone call. She’s like a book of wisdom. And I think she’s a lot of fun too socially, but I think that Kris is the most generous giving, loving person. And she’s tough as nails. We all know that, but she has given me such good advice on how to help with managing Caitlyn. And also with my own brand, she’s helped me and given quite nice advice and connections and she’s just generous beyond belief."
