Shocking: Caitlyn Jenner's first wife Chrystie Scott has claimed the star first spoke about wanting to be a woman during the early days of their marriage 40 years ago
Chrystie told The Sunday Mirror that in 1972, during her first year of marriage to Caitlyn when she was Bruce, she had no inclination that he had any doubts about his gender identity.
She added that she was stunned when Bruce said he wanted to a become a woman, but never saw him acting on those feelings.
Chrystie was married to Caitlyn from 1972 to 1981, and they share son Burt, 41, and daughter Cassandra, 39.
'I was shocked. He was so masculine. It never occurred to me it might have caused him anxiety. There was no indication in any area of our marriage,' she explained.
'He said it was a fantasy and he wasn't going to act on his desire. I had never seen him dressing up in women's clothes or anything like that.'

Chrystie went onto reveal that she first learned of Caitlyn's plans to transition in 1985, which left her feeling as if she her husband had died.
She added that when Caitlyn publicly announced her transition in 2015 with a now-historic cover for Vanity Fair, it came as a shock after first meeting the star as 'boy next door' Bruce.
She said: 'When I first saw Caitlyn I couldn't stop staring. It was a shock and still is. I prefer him male. Bruce was my hero – he was a great guy and he's gone through so many changes, and I can't say they're good.'

It is thought that Caitlyn first considered surgery during her second marriage to Linda Thompson, who said she first learned of his desire to transition when her mother caught him trying on women's clothes.
Writing in her book Linda said: 'I saw him preening and posing in front of the mirror.
'He just had his underwear on, and he took his genitals, and he tucked them behind, so that he was flat in the front. And then he was posing with his genitals tucked behind.'
Caitlyn's revelations come as she makes her first appearance in the new series of I'm A Celebrity on Sunday night.
The American reality star said she is looked forward to 'a break' from her family The Kardashians, and is open to taking on any challenge during her time in the jungle.
