Caitlyn Jenner has addressed her involvement in the release of her stepdaughter Kim Kardashian’s infamous 2007 s€x tape.
The 73-year-old former Olympian claimed in Sky’s new docuseries House Of Kardashian that she had almost no knowledge of the tape’s contents or release and she tried to keep it that way.
‘Whatever’s going on, I don’t know what it is and I’m gonna go to the golf course,’ she recalled thinking at the time that her family was overwhelmed by controversy.
‘To be honest with you, I just stayed out of it,’ she continued.
Caitlyn claimed to have played no role in the release of the tape, which was released in 2003, after her ex-boyfriend Ray J told Mail Online in May 2022 that Kim’s mother Kris Jenner had watched two different sex tapes before deciding on which one to release.
However, Kris and Kim have always denied that they played any part in releasing the s£x tape, and they have long contended that it was leaked without their knowledge or consent.
‘Kris never talked to me about it. I never talked to Kimberly about it. I don’t know what happened, why it happened,’ Caitlyn continued in the documentary, via E! News.
The transgender icon was quizzed on whether Kim and Kris had worked ‘together to release’ the s€x tape.
‘I have no idea,’ she claimed.
‘I never, ever once had that conversation,’ she continued, before adding: ‘Nor did I want to have that conversation.’
Kim’s s€x tape was ultimately released after her family’s reality series Keeping Up With The Kardashians was already in the works, but before it had been filmed.
Much of the series premiere was spent addressing the tape amid Kim and her family’s newfound publicity and fame.
In that episode, Kris didn’t say if she was involved in the release of the tape, though she admitted to trying to make the best of an awkward situation.
‘When I first heard about Kim’s s€x tape, as her mother, I wanted to k!ll her,’ she declared in the episode. ‘But as her manager, I knew that I had a job to do and I really just wanted her to move past it.’
