Caitlyn Jenner’s mother recovering after breaking both hips

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 13 (UPI) — Caitlyn Jenner’s mother, Esther, broke both hips and is now recovering, the reality star revealed on social media this week.

Alongside a photo of the two, 65-year-old Jenner wrote her mother is “doing great” after the serious injury. “She’s been mobile,” the I Am Cait star added, sans details. “She’s tough.”

The photo features the younger Jenner standing over her smiling mother in what appears to be her home.

Esther Jenner, 89, makes frequent appearances on her daughter’s E! television show as an avid supporter. “I love him with all my heart,” she is quoted as saying in the premiere episode of I Am Cait. “And I certainly love her with all my heart.”

Still, the Jenner matriarch admitted she had “so much to learn,” about her daughter’s transition from male to female. She told People over the summer what Caitlyn did “takes so much courage to do.”

“When I first saw [Caitlyn] all I wanted to do was give her a big hug,” she said. “It takes some getting used to. It’s going to take some time, but I will adjust.”
