Caitlyn Jenner and Sophia Hutchins baby claims are just ‘foolish rumours’

Caitlyn Jenner and partner Sophia Hutchins will not be having a baby any time soon, despite circulating rumours.
Closer magazine had reported that Jenner, 69, is looking for a surrogate in hopes of raising a child with her 22-year-old partner, Sophia Hutchins, who is also trans.
The magazine quoted a source who said: “Caitlyn and Sophia have spoken about starting a family together for the last year or so, and while Caitlyn’s already got ten children, she’s never had the chance to bring a child up in the role of a mother, which she’s always dreamed of doing.
“Sophia’s also longing to become a mum, and Cait knows how important that is to her. They’ve decided to hire a surrogate to carry their much longed-for baby.”
However, in response to the claims, the reality television star’s representative told Metro.co.uk: “It’s a foolish rumour that has no merit and is completely untrue.”
The former Olympic athlete came out as a transgender woman in April 2015, a month after she finalised her divorce with Kris Jenner, whom she has two biological children with.
Jenner has never confirmed her relationship with Hutchins, who she lives with and has reportedly been dating since 2017.
Caitlyn Jenner’s ex-wife knew she was trans ‘for decades’
In a recent episode of The Hills: New Beginnings, Caitlyn Jenner’s ex-wife Linda Thompson revealed she knew about the athlete’s wish to transition for decades before the world did.
She said: “My life circumstance has been crazy. I was so happily married to [Caitlyn] Jenner. I had this great normal life until this fateful day, stood right over there, where [she] said to me I wanna transition.
“In my mind, I had lost my normal, my family, my wonderful husband that I thought would be forever.”

The pair’s son Brody Jenner explained on the show: “My mum has known for decades. She never told me until I was like 27 years old when she told me what [Caitlyn] was going through.
“The way she handled that situation and waited to tell us until we were old enough to understand better, was the right thing to do. She’s got a big heart.”
The reality television star spoke out about having a distant relationship with Caitlyn Jenner, who missed his wedding in 2018.
He said: “Not having Caitlyn at my wedding was a bummer. I would have loved to have had her there but she had better things to do apparently.”
