Bruce Jenner's entire family has appeared to be supportive of his transgender transition in which he now identifies himself as a woman in public, but the Kardashian and Jenner sides of the family are reportedly very much split.

Kim Kardashian had revealed she watched Bruce Jenner: The Interview on 20/20 Friday night with her stepfather Bruce, mother Kris Jenner and their family.
But according to Us, Bruce also had a separate viewing party with his ex-wife Chrystie Scott and their children Burt and Casey Jenner, as well as his second ex-wife Linda Thompson's kids Brandon and Brody Jenner.
Scott, Burt, Casey, Brandon and Brody all appeared on the 20/20 special with Diane Sawyer to voice their support of Bruce's life-changing news.
Kendall and Kylie Jenner, who would likely be viewed as the girls right in the middle of the two families, apparently side with the Kardashians.
Burt, 36, seemed to take a shot at the Kardashians in a tweet that followed Kris calling Bruce her "hero" on Twitter.
"Having a hard time not putting a few people on blast who were not supporters beforehand, but want to act like they were all along," Burt wrote in a since-deleted tweet the day after Bruce Jenner: The Interview aired.
Kris' sincerity was in question because she had allegedly issued Sawyer a "no comment" response when contacted about Bruce's journey.
Kris appeared to post her "hero" tweet only after Scott and Thompson were shown offering beautiful statements about their support for Bruce on the 20/20 broadcast. Critics are therefore saying Kris is just trying not to look bad.
"[Burt] feels they're only supportive now for publicity," an insider told Us.
United they stand? Doesn't seem to be the case.
