Caitlyn Jenner Regrets She Never Told Her Father About Her True Identity

Caitlyn Jenner just admitted that she has one major regret in her life. And that is: not telling her father about her true identity.

On Wednesday, Feb.17, the I Am Cait star was at the University of Pennsylvania's Irvine Auditorium, where she opened up about her high-profile transition. According to Philadelphia Inquirer, during the interview, Jenner was totally talkative and even cracked a lot of jokes, but things got emotional after one audience asked about coming out to her parents.

Her father, William, a World War II veteran, passed away 15 years ago. Apparently, Jenner never told her dad about her gender identity and it's the thing that she regrets the most. "That will always haunt me," she disclosed to the audience while wiping her pouring tears.

"I think eventually he would have come around," the Olympic gold medalist added. "He would have never understood, he didn't know anything -- gay, trans, all that other stuff. But I'm sure he's looking down from heaven right now and saying, 'Well, you're doing a good job."

While she didn't get a chance to tell her father about her true identity, her mother, on the other hand, got confused at first but eventually had become her "best ally." And when asked if she had any regrets on her transition, "Girls, I'm on your team and I'm sticking on your team," the 66-year-old former Bruce proudly said.

It was last year when Bruce officially said goodbye to her former self and welcomed Cait. Hence, many gender advocates praised and cheered for her bravery as it is another step in bringing awareness about the gender community. But along with the approval is a mockery of other people, who think that Jenner is just making a fool of herself. Nevertheless, the Kardashian and the Jenner clan think that she made a great choice.
