The TV personality confessed that it had been “so difficult” grieving Hutchins’ passing in the past weeks, and she could understand the trauma the families of the mass shooting victims were enduring. She choked up while speaking to Fox News, saying:

“Here I am dealing with my grief, and I just can’t even imagine parents who dropped their kid off at school and, like that father just said, ‘I’ll never get a chance to talk to him again.’ That is just so horrible.'”

Jenner’s longtime pal died in an ATV accident on July 2 after she reportedly hit the bumper of a car in front of her while speeding. Sgt. Eduardo Saucedo of the LASD noted the collision forced Hutchins to “veer to the right and go off the cliff.”

She ran her ATV off the road near Jenner’s Malibu home, falling into a 350-foot ravine. Emergency responders pronounced Hutchins dead at the scene after they rappelled down the side of the cliff to reach the crash site.

Saucedo revealed Hutchins’ damaged ATV remained at the scene because the “tow company didn’t have a line that was long enough to attach it and pull it up.” She died in a spot where other accidents had occurred, with her car landing on top of a rusted, upside-down car.

Jenner and Hutchins first met in 2015 after the reality TV star came out as transgender. The late media personality noted that their mutual hairstylist introduced them, and they quickly became close friends. Hutchins eventually moved into Jenner’s home to work as her manager.

Jenner and Hutchins made waves for their close bond, frequently attending events together. Many suspected they were a secret couple, and the rumors continued for years until the late manager shut them down in 2018.

Hutchins declared that she and Jenner were never a couple, noting their relationship was not romantic but familial. She claimed the older entertainer was a parent figure in her eyes, emphasizing that their public outings stemmed from their business partnership.

The Blast shared that the deep bonds Hutchins and Jenner had sparked concerns within the entertainer’s inner circle following the manager’s passing. Sources alleged they feared Jenner “might never recover from her despair” because she lost her closest confidant.

Following Hutchins’ tragic passing, Jenner was spotted with her manager’s family, specifically her mother. They were seen running errands in Malibu, with Hutchins’ mom quietly trailing behind a sad-looking Jenner.

The Blast reported that she supported the grieving family by offering them a home to settle in as they navigated life without Hutchins. The move wasn’t surprising, given the years-long bond between Jenner and her late manager.

Hutchins and Jenner frequently flaunted their bond, including on “I Am Cait,” the latter’s reality TV show. The deceased also spent quality time with Jenner’s family and even modeled for Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS brand in 2020.

Here’s to hoping Caitlyn Jenner and the grieving families of the Minneapolis church shooting can heal from their pain.
