Kris Jenner confused by Caitlyn's dating plans

Los Angeles - Kris Jenner finds it confusing that Caitlyn Jenner wants to date men.

The reality TV star admitted that hearing that her former husband - who revealed last year that she is transgender - might be interested in romantic relationships with men was surprising at first but she just wants her to be happy.

Presenter Ellen DeGeneres said to Kris during an interview on her chat show: "It's confusing because for a while she was not saying whether she was going to date women or men and now apparently she is saying she is going to date men."

And Kris, who was married to the former Olympian for over 20 years, said: "[It's] confusing for sure. But you know I think that I really want her to be happy and be really comfortable in all the things where she says she wasn't her true authentic self for most of her life and knew when she was four that she felt like that. So you don't want somebody to be miserable or in pain or anything like that.

"I think for me, just getting used to that, you know I am human and I have my feelings and I try and its baby steps. And it's the mourning of somebody that you feel you are never going to be with or see again.'

In another interview with Ellen, Caitlyn explains that she's a traditionalist and, for her, marriage has always been between a man and a woman. On the trailer for season 2 for I am Cait, Caitlyn admits that she cannot see herself dating women again in the future and agrees when a friend teasingly asks about a future ex-husband.
