Although the star couple shared a peaceful relationship, there were inevitable problems that forced them to split up. After 24 years of marriage, Kris and Caitlyn signed the divorce paper, and it was not related to the athlete’s gender. 

What’s surprising is the statement she wrote about her ex-wife in the memoir. According to Caitlyn, Kris was aware of her gender issues for a long time. I tell Kris about my gender issues before I make love to her,” wrote the Olympic champion. “This will always be a subject of dispute between Kris and me as to how much she could intuit about my gender issues.
