Caitlyn Jenner brought up her tension with Khloe Kardashian last night
Caitlyn – who used to be known as Bruce – said they hadn’t been in contact since she became a woman but didn’t know what her “issue” was.
Her comment upset Keeping Up With The Kardashian fans who pointed out Khloe fell out with Caitlyn when she spoke badly of her mum in public.
Talking about her transition on last night’s show, Caitlyn said: “The only one who was really… and I still, even today, can’t figure it out, was Khloe.
“For some reason Khloe was p***ed off about something through this whole process, its been five or six years and I really havent talked to her since.”

Appearing saddened by the soured relationship, she added: “We were really close, I raised her since she was five years old, I really dont know what her issues are.”
But fans disagreed with her take on why their relationship broke down.
Some even went as far as to say Caitlyn was accusing Khloe of being “transphobic”.
One said: “”Im a big fan of @Caitlyn_Jenner but to imply the strain of their relationship is down to a lack of acceptance from @khloekardashian is really unfair.
“Khloe is one of those people who demonstrates respect and tolerance in the most challenging of circumstances. #ImACeleb.”
Another added: “Lets just get one thing straight, Khloe didnt stop talking to Caitlyn because she transitioned, she stopped talking to her because she spent the months after her transition s**t talking Kris and spewing lies about Kris in her book#ImACeleb #KUWTK.”
Someone else said: “Khloe has always been my fav and this is why, like anyone who watches KUWTK knows how it really was with Caitlyn. Im p***ed #ImACeleb.”
A viewer complained: “Caitlyn trying to make out like Khloe stopped speaking to her because she is trans. #ImACeleb.”
Another spouted: “Caitlyn: *lays into Khloes mum*, Khloe: *gets upset*, Caitlyn: shes transphobic and hasnt spoke to me because I transitioned.
“B******t. Maybe Cait needs to catch up on some KUWTK cus clearly she dont remember the situation very well.”
A fan added: “I feel as though Caitlyn has come across amazingly well in the jungle but her painting Khloe in a bad light for not speaking to her is awful.
“She knows exactly why Khloe isn’t speaking to her – she was awful to Khloe’s family during her transition. #imaceleb.”
Someone else said: “Painting #Khloe out to be transphobic when you know that isnt why she isnt speaking to you. Not cool Caitlyn, not cool! #ImACeleb.”
Another claimed: “The way Caitlyn has portrayed Khloe is so wrong. She is not transphobic, the reason she doesnt speak to her is because of how she spoke about her mom to the press #ImACeleb.”
Kris the estranged wife of Robert Kardashian, a lawyer famed for defending O.J. Simpson during his murder trial in 1990.
They married in 1991, and Caitlyn became a stepparent to Kris’ four kids: Khloe, Kim, Kourtney, and Rob Kardashian.
The couple had another two children together, Kendall and Kylie.
After transitioning from Bruce to Caitlyn, the former sports star wrote a book The Secrets of My Life about the Kardashians.
Caitlyn described the last year of her marriage to Kris as an acrimonious misery and claimed she had always known she wanted to be a woman a claim Kris denies.
