Caitlyn Jenner reveals she underwent gender reassignment surgery in new book
Caitlyn Jenner will reveal that she has undergone gender reassignment surgery in a new memoir.
The 67-year-old reveals that she underwent the surgery in the new memoir, The Secrets of my Life, which comes out on 25 April.
She says: “I just want to have all the right parts. I am also tired of tucking the damn thing in all the time.
“The surgery was a success, and I feel not only wonderful, but liberated.”
Adding: “I am going to have an enthusiasm for life that I have not had in 39 years since the Olympics, almost two thirds of my life.”
RadarOnline.com reveals the book exerpt, in which she says she wanted to open up about the surgery in the hope that fans will stop asking intrusive questions about the process.
“You want to know, so now you know. Which is why this is the first time, and the last time, I will ever speak of it,” she writes.
She works on the memoir with Buzz Bissinger, who wrote the profile on Jenner when she came out as transgender in Vantiy Fair.
According to reports, she has been given a $4 million advance for the memoir.
Earlier this year, rumours circulated that Jenner is due to join the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Her own reality show, I Am Cait, was canceled be the E! network after just two seasons, when ratings fell significantly in its second year.
The move wouldn’t be a first for the Real housewives franchise, however, having had trans women in their shows before.
Model Lauren Foster appeared on Real Housewives of Miami, and actress Amiyah Scott was invited to join the Atlanta version.
It comes after she appeared to withdraw her support for President Trump.
The trans reality TV star posted a video on her Twitter page, saying: “From one Republican to another, this is a disaster.”
She then added: “You made a promise to protect the LGBTQ community. Call me.”

Jenner had previously given her support to Trump, and argued he could be much better for the LGBT community than people gave him credit.
However following the decision to officially reverse Obama’s transgender bathroom protections she has changed her mind.
Jenner had also offered herself as a trans ambassador for the Trump administration.
Jenner was previously shown reading PinkNews on her reality show, saying it shed light on her attitudes towards Ted Cruz.
Teenage reality star Jackie Evancho, who flouted a celebrity boycott to perform at Donald Trump’s inauguration, has been told she’s “welcome” to a meeting with the President after she complained that he targeted her trans sister’s rights.
