Bruce Jenner was once caught by his sons Brody and Brandon having boobs, revealed his former wife Linda Thompson, who is also the former wife of "Asia's Got Talent" judge David Foster.
Through an essay published in Huffington Post, Thompson chronicled the years she spent with Bruce, being aware of his plan to transition from male to female.
According to Thompson, Brandon and Brody came into the kitchen one day after having spent a little time at Bruce's house and told her, "Mommy, we saw Daddy getting out of the shower naked, and Daddy has boobs."
In response, Thompson told Brandon and Brody, "Well, boys, you know how your dad was super-muscular and trained very hard for the Olympics? He had big muscles, and some of those muscles are called pectorals."
Thompson revealed that at the time, she tried to convince Brandon and Brody that sometimes the muscle turns to fat when an athlete stops training and lifting weights so Bruce's pectoral muscles "have probably just gotten a little flabby and look like boobs."
Since then, Thompson started to cover for Bruce in an attempt to protect him and explain away "what was clearly happening to his visage." For her, trying to protect Bruce while shielding Brandon and Brody was exhausting.
Furthermore, Thompson revealed that Bruce went under the knife not only to have his Adam's apple. He also had a nose job and had his facial hair and chest hair removed.
"I began dating David Foster, whom I subsequently married a few years later," Thompson wrote. "Bruce dated several women, even though he had begun his transition and showed signs of it."
After his "20/20" interview with Diane Sawyer on April 24, Bruce will tell more about his gender transition through a series of eight hour-long episodes that will air on E! on July 26, TV Line has learned.
