Bruce Jenner, 65, became the highest profile American to identify as transgender when the former Olympic gold medalist and reality TV star, who is transitioning to life as a woman, revealed her new name as Caitlyn and posed in a white strapless leotard on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine.
"I'm so happy after such a long struggle to be living my true self. Welcome to the world Caitlyn." said Jenner on her Twitter account.
