Los Angeles:
Transgender Olympic champion and reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner, who was known as Bruce Jenner before undergoing a gender transition, has claimed she was 'mistreated' by her former wife Kris Jenner during their 23-year-old marriage.
Caitlyn, 65, says she chose to end her relationship with the 59-year-old TV personality because of the way she was treated.
"Twenty percent was gender and 80 percent was the way I was treated. A lot of times she wasn't very nice. People would see how I got mistreated. She controlled the money, all that kind of stuff," Caitlyn told Vanity Fair magazine.
Caitlyn also admitted things changed when the pair secured a contract for Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
She added, "The first 15 years I felt she needed me more because I was the breadwinner. Then really around the show, when that hit and she was running this whole show and getting credit for it and she had her own money, she didn't need me as much from that standpoint."
"The relationship was different. I think in a lot of ways she became less tolerant of me. Then I'd get upset and the whole relationship kind of fizzled."
