WATCH: Caitlyn Jenner didn't support gay marriage

Los Angeles - Caitlyn Jenner wasn't always a supporter of gay marriage.

The I Am Cait star stunned everyone one when she admitted on The Ellen Show on Friday that she's a traditional Republican and at first did not support the concept of gay marriage.

"I thought. I'm a traditionalist. I kind of like tradition. It's always been a man and a woman," Caitlyn explained to Ellen who called the reality star out on her conservative views.

"As time has gone on, like a lot of other people, I've changed my thinking here to I don't ever want to stand in front of anybody's happiness," she added.

When asked if she misses life as Bruce, she explained: "Absolutely, no. Because as a woman I can do all this fun stuff anyway. I can still play golf. I can still go race cars. There's nothing better than to wake up in the morning and be able to be your authentic self."

And the 65-year-old former Olympian also admitted she has found it "overwhelming" with what she has learned over the last few months.

She added; "The things I've learned over the last few months have just been overwhelming. My experience is very different than anyone else's."

Meanwhile, Caitlyn recently revealed she applied for membership at her golf club under the name Bruce Jenner because she doesn't want to "worry about locker rooms".

She shared; "Let's just put 'Bruce' down and it's fine. 'Cause then I don't have to worry about locker rooms and all that crap right now, which I don't want to worry about. I'll worry about the locker rooms later on down the line."
