Pity the Kardashian-Jenners, Ruthlessly Exploited by Reality-TV Producers to Make Them Look Bad Over Caitlyn

In an astonishing outrage visited upon a family of naifs, the Jenners and Kardashians are crying foul against the makers of the British reality-TV show Im A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here, with Brandon Jenner and Kim Kardashian claiming the programs makers cynically manipulated the expulsion of their parent Caitlyn Jenner from the shows jungle camp to make her look sad, lonely, and isolated from her family.

The cheek of it!

Caitlyn was among a group of 12 participants who signed up for this years installment of the long-running British TV show, which sees several famous, and many more not not-so famous, people imprisoned in an Australian jungle camp where they must complete a variety of disturbing challenges such as eating animal offal (this years delicacies included a camels anus) or being covered in rats, spiders, and cockroaches to win their daily meals.

Characters are voted off by the public, and the winner receives a cash prize and a fractional and short-lived boost to their notional fame, which may or may not be parlayed into yet further meaningless TV appearances.

A feature of this particular show is that the expelled campmates must walk back to civilization across a rope bridge, at the end of which their loving family are waiting to console them (and perhaps thank them for the free holiday at a five-star resort in the Antipodes). But when Caitlyn made her walk out of the jungle on Friday, the seventh character to leave the camp, no one was there to greet her and congratulate her on her success.

Some viewers, who were perhaps over-invested, declared on social media that they were heartbroken and branded her famous family as disgusting after they failed to show up to support Cait.

One sad fan went so far as to message Caitlyns son Brandon, asking, Why wasnt you at the bridge?

Happily, Brandon was able to translate his inquisitors mournful British slang and even sent a reply in which he blamed producers for conjuring up a storyline.

Honestly, nobody reached out to set it up, he told the concerned individual, I think it might have been a storyline the producers wanted to fabricate in order to get more empathy for Caitlyn. Thats how that kind of TV works, he wrote, followed by a smirking emoji.

While cynics might imagine it was more likely to be an issue of appearance fees or non-compete clauses, Kim Kardashian tweeted out a story about Brandons remarks saying that she was claiming the same excuse.

Kardashian was also criticized by Caitlyns online British TV fans after she failed to give her former stepfather any love on social while she was on the show.

Of course, keen adherents of the Kardashian/Jenner saga may have their own suspicions as to why Kim failed to so much as even like a post about Caitlyns jungle stay.

Perhaps they will recall that Caitlyn admitted she hadnt spoken to Kim for nine months when she was promoting her memoir, telling Piers Morgan: I love Kim so much. Its such a huge loss in my life not having her there anymore. Its really sad My kids have all been so supportive from day oneespecially Kendall and Kylie. But the Kardashian side? I dont really talk to them very often now and thats something I have to deal with. Fortunately, though, I have a lot of children.
