Bruce Jenner and soon-to-be ex Kris Jenner are reportedly not having a very amicable parting. A RadarOnline source says that a recent bout of trouble between the two can be traced to Bruce Jenner’s much-rumored “more feminine” look.

Bruce Jenner has been spotted out and about wearing Spanx, with a French manicure, and wearing diamond stud earrings. The inside source says that Kris has been giving Bruce grief over it.

“She has been bugging Bruce about his physical transformation and he has finally had enough,” an insider said. “With the divorce about to be finalized in the next few months, Bruce wants to start his own holiday traditions.”

The word around the campfire is that Bruce will not be attending the traditional Kardashian Christmas soiree.

“Expect Bruce to have a small gathering at his Malibu house on Christmas Eve. The event will be low key and very relaxed,” the source said. But it was also hinted that Bruce did not want to see Kris with new beau Corey — not because Bruce was jealous, but because he “just thinks the whole relationship is just tacky.”

Bruce’s mother Esther recently told the Daily Mail just what she thinks of Kris Jenner.

“I hope she changes her name back to Kardashian I don’t want her to carry the name,” Esther said.

Esther said that Kris was very controlling during her years with Bruce, not even allowing him his own checkbook, making him ask for money when he wanted it.

“I don’t think she treated anybody very well,” Esther said. “She’s domineering – it’s do it her way, or there’s no way. I had very little to do with Kris. I stayed away from her as much as I could. She could insult you with a big smile on her face, I know. What do you do with a person like that? You’re going to avoid them if possible. She was backstabbing as far as my grandchildren were concerned, and that is something I can’t stand.”

But she says Bruce is a new man since his split from Kris, which Esther says Bruce initiated.

“He is ecstatically happy right now. When I talk to him I can hear it in his voice and he’s spending a lot more time with his kids. I don’t think he’s a bit lonely. He seems like he’s himself again.”
