Candis Cayne Explains Why She's No Longer Friends With 'Cult Member' Caitlyn Jenner
Caitlyn Jenner's ex-best friend, Candis Cayne, finally explained why they aren't not friends.
Caitlyn Jenner's ex-best friend, Candis Cayne, finally explained why she's not friends with the retired Olympian, whom she called a "cult member," RadarOnline.com has learned.
Jenner was thick as thieves with Cayne during her transition, and their friendship — at one time rumored to be more — played out on Jenner's reality series, I Am Cait.
Caitlyn Jenner has been open about her right-wing views and anti-trans women competing in female sports.
Now, she's speaking out about why their close relationship fell apart – blaming Jenner's hardcore Republican views.
"We just don't really talk anymore," Cayne told The Messenger, "because I can't separate my friendship with her and her belief system anymore."
Kris Jenner's ex-spouse has been outspoken about her right-wing beliefs, which include supporting a ban on trans girls participating in women's sports. Jenner has also backed Donald Trump, whom she once denounced, for re-election in the upcoming 2024 presidential run.
She, too, expressed interest in a political career by becoming a candidate in the 2021 gubernatorial run against California's Governor, Gavin Newsom. Jenner joined Fox News as a contributor in 2022.
The two became close during Caitlyn's transition.
Cayne said their views no longer matched up, revealing their friend group "really tried to show her the light, and how important our cause was, and the only way you can get that is if you lean left." But their efforts didn't work.
Cayne called Jenner "a cult member, a Fox News cult member."
