Caitlyn Jenner has slammed reports she plans to de-transition, but “Kardashian Dynasty” author Ian Halperin thinks the reality star’s Christian values will have her headed back to life as Bruce.
“I believe within three years, Caitlyn will de-transition,” Halperin told Page Six Thursday. “I think it’s all going to come to fruition.”
Halperin claims Jenner’s Christian values play a role in her alleged struggle to find comfort in her new skin.
“I say Caitlyn is still homophobic. Is a believing Christian and my sources say [she] struggles every day with the idea of being gay, which is a sin according to what she believes in. She said many times that she is not gay. Again, my sources say it’s been so hard on her, there’s been so many bouts of fits [and] depression, that they see small signs that point to that fact.”
Murmurs the 66-year-old would revert to Bruce Jenner, nearly a year after her Vanity Fair big reveal, bubbled up after Halperin’s interview with The Wrap was published Wednesday.
“One source confirmed to me Caitlyn has made whispers of ‘sex change regret,’ hinting she might go back to being Bruce Jenner,” Halperin told the site.
While “Kardashian Dynasty” was released last month, Halperin decidedly left out his de-transition prediction.
“People said it but recently I had very good corroboration about how hard it’s been for Caitlyn,” Halperin added. “Of course I put [in the book] why Bruce rushed to the transition so quickly, I say because of the car accident where he killed Kim Howe. It wouldn’t have happened so quickly. I say it was mis-direction because the media and the public were all over him for that. He was afraid of homicide charges.”
In December, prosecutors declined to charge Jenner for the February fatal crash due to a lack of evidence. She’s still facing a wrongful death suit from Howe’s family.
Jenner’s rep shot down de-transition chatter, telling Page Six, “It’s not true.”
When asked if Jenner read the book about her controversial family, the rep said, “Never heard of him nor the book.”
Halperin, however, wants Jenner to prove she’s being honest.
“She has good spin doctors and good publicists,” he said in response to Jenner’s denial. “I expected nothing less. They can deny it all they want. I would challenge her to take polygraph tests. Take a polygraph test and let’s see who’s telling the truth. I’d put my money where my mouth is.”
