Caitlyn Jenner Breaks Silence on 29-Year-Old Manager Sophia Hutchins’ Sudden Death
Caitlyn Jenner has responded to the death of 29-year-old manager and friend, Sophia Hutchins, who was also transgender.
Hutchins was killed in what law enforcement has said was a high-speed ATV accident near Jenner’s home on Wednesday, which led to the socialite plunging 350 feet down a cliff.
The Daily Mail caught up with Jenner, who had not publicly commented about Hutchins’ death.
The Mail reports:
Hutchins, like Jenner, was transgender and cited the father-of-six as the inspiration for coming out in college back in 2016.
Hours after the fatal accident, Jenner, 75, looked somber in Malibu on Thursday, marking the first time she had been seen in public since the tragedy – before exclusively telling DailyMail.com she was going through ‘tough times’ navigating the loss of Hutchins.
The reality star hid her eyes behind dark shades and wore a blue shirt and shorts for the low-key outing.
Putting on a brave face, she was seen waving at photographers before heading back to her $3.5million Malibu mansion.
The star later said ‘I don’t want to talk’ about the tragedy.
Hutchins moved in with Jenner in 2017.
There was long speculation about whether the two influential transgender icons were in a relationship. Still, Hutchins told The New York Times in 2019 that their relationship was more like that of a parent and child.
“Caitlyn is a parent to me. I have said that a million times. It is a parental, familial relationship,” Hutchins said.
The Mail report also noted, “The tragedy comes nine years after Jenner was involved in a fatal car crash while driving on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.”
“The collision involved four cars and resulted in the death of Kim Howe, 70,” the report continued. “Jenner was not charged in the crash, but an investigation by the LA County Sheriff’s Office determined that Caitlyn was driving too fast. That opened her up to blame in civil lawsuits, which was later settled out of court.”
