Watch the 20/20 interview everyone is talking about.
Bruce Jenner has revealed that Kanye West helped his daughter and the rapper's wife Kim Kardashian accept his decision to be transgender.
In an extensive two hour interview with ABC, Bruce said: "[Kim Kardashian] goes, 'You know what really turned me around in thinking about this? ... Kanye.
"I went, 'Oh. OK.' They were talking about it and he said to Kim, 'Look, I could be married to the most beautiful woman in the world, and I am. I could have the most beautiful in the daughter in the world. I have that. But I'm nothing if I can't be me. If I can't be true to myself, they don't mean anything.'"
Jenner added on 20/20 that "Kimberly has been by far the most accepting and the easiest to talk to about it."
After the interview aired, Kim praised her dad on Twitter.
Love is the courage to live the truest, best version of yourself. Bruce is love. I love you Bruce. #ProudDaughter pic.twitter.com/7ZJ6FuMHfU
