Ahead of this month’s premiere of E!’s I Am Cait, the paparazzi are all over Caitlyn Jenner. The former Olympian has barely been able to step out of the house without the media writing about her (frankly incredible) outfits, her manicure, her hair, her friends and more so it comes as no surprise that her love life has already been thrown into the rumour mill for all to speculate.
Star magazine are reporting that while attending a party during her first Pride celebration, Caitlyn Jenner hit it off with Candis Cayne. For those unaware, Candis is the first transsexual actor to play a transsexual character on primetime television, a choreographer, performer, and figurehead in the transgender and transsexual movement.
Candis is no stranger to the Kardashian-Jenner clan; at the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation and World AIDS Day event last year, Candis posed with Kim and Caitlyn’s ex Kris…
During her performance at Pride, Candis dedicated her rendition of ‘I’m Every Woman’ to Jenner and the two struck up a friendship. A source told Star, “After her monumental life change, Caitlyn’s ready to open up her heart again, and really, how could you ask for a more perfect fit as a romantic partner than Candis? She’s been basically through the same struggle and confusion, so she’d be the perfect person for Caitlyn to lean on as she continues her journey of transition. Candis is smart, funny, talented and drop-dead sexy.”
We suspect the two are just friends and that the rumours of romance are just that but, in any case, it’s a relationship that is sure to be closely watched by the media!
Meanwhile, the first promotional shots for Caitlyn’s eight-episode docu-series with E! have arrived and they are stun-ning. The 65-year-old wears a black gown with lace-panelled back with diamond jewellery and a picture-perfect pink manicure. Check it out…
