Earlier this month, Bruce Jenner stepped out in LA, looking easy, breeezy, beautiful. His blowout looked flawless, the lip injections were plumped, his nose job and laryngeal shave had healed and maybe there was some makeup involved. Just some lip gloss, maybe a little blush. Why did Bruce want to look so gorgeous? He had a date! He attended the Elton John concert with his son, his son’s wife and a mystery brunette woman. As it turns out, the brunette (you can see her photo at the bottom of the post) is Bruce’s new girlfriend and Kris Jenner’s former friend.
Well, that was quick! While Bruce and Kris Jenner announced their separation almost a year ago and both filed for divorce just last month, officially ending their 22-year marriage, Kris, 58, admitted the thought of dating again was “daunting” to her.
However, a source reveals to PEOPLE exclusively that Bruce, 64, has already begun a new romance – and it’s with Kris’s longtime friend and former assistant, Ronda Kamihira.
“Kris is devastated,” says the source. “This was her former assistant and best friend of 20 years.”
The source adds that the Jenners’ daughters, “Kendall and Kylie grew up with her two kids and have been their best friends.”
After such an amicable split with the former Olympian, Kris “is just shocked” by the news. “She’s so sad and completely heartbroken,” the source adds.
Bruce first publicly stepped out with Kamihira in L.A. at an Elton John concert on Oct. 4, where he also sported longer locks. Just months earlier, Kamihira joined her girlfriend Kris for a getaway to Kardashian family friend Joe Francis’s Punta Mita compound. Bruce, Kris and Kamihira were not immediately able to be reached for comment.
Some people think this is just another stupid plotline on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Those people are probably right. But I do think Bruce is “over” all of this, especially the reality shows and Kris specifically. But if he’s so “over” Kris, why is he dating one of her close friends? That’s more of a move designed to get at your ex than some kind of “I’m moving on” new relationship.
FYI: Kris did appear on the Today Show yesterday and she was asked about Bruce’s girlfriend. Kris said “I just want him to be happy, I don’t care who he goes out with. And I don’t know who he is dating, he doesn’t check in with me and give me a play by play, but it’s his life and you just want the guy to be happy.” Sounds like someone is saving the good stuff for the reality show.

Yeah… What I don’t understand is why Kris manufactured and distributed that story. Why would she want us to believe that her ex who is transitioning and her best friend are an item? What’s in it for her?
What’s in it for Kris?
1. $
2. $$
3. the flash of cameras that power the cold, dead heart of hers
4. $$$$
Basically what Abbot says..plus some semblance of Sympathy even though that’s the korner the kardassholes have painted themselves in where we dont believe them, need more people, permanently side eye them and pretty much anything they say is met with a brow raised sponsored by botox and theexpression “Yeah, Right”
Kris’s nauseatingly sweet, sugary, manufactured, pre-arranged, scripted answers on ET last night in response to questions about the so-called friend and Bruce (and whether Bruce was transitioning) left me wanting to slap her.
+1 to everything Abbott said.
I find Bruce’s look to be ….. sad. The man has ruined himself.
Haven’t they all?
Good point.
I wonder how much that family has spent collectively on plastic surgery. Including botox and collagen.
If he gets himself some ombre hair extensions and an arse implant should we just throw together some sympathy speculation about him being Khloe’s biological dad? We know it’s not true but he’s trying so gosh darn hard!
Heheheh! Only if he keeps up his lip injections and agrees to be the crash test dummy for Khloe’s possibly still improperly ceiling-mounted sex swing.
@Miffy thanks for the giggle! You had me at arse implants…
Yes. He was so good looking. I can’t fathom the reason to ever think that man needed to “tweek” anything.
So agree. He has completely ruined is good looks.
It’s Hollywood.
EXACTLY he looks weird. He was so handsome back in the day.
Honestly, he looks like he’s transitioning to me. He looks so different, and I know there’s rumors about it, but this picture really makes me think that it might be the case.
I think he has had a bad case of body dysmorphic disorder for a long time, or he’s transitioning, or both.
H- how could anyone live in the kardashian house, under the reign of kris, and not have severe body dysmorpic disorder?
his nose is so skinny….. no one’s nose is naturally like that! wonder if Kenny Rogers is a friend……………..
Like anyone believes it. Like anyone cares.
Gak………..what fresh hell is that photo?
What on earth has Bruce done to his face?!!! That is just sad
I think I’m more offended by the jeans!
HAHA! Me too CM!! Awful, fit & too short….Not a good look Bruce!
Mom jeans………
I would say that anyone would be an improvement over Kris, but this woman is supposedly close friends with her, so…
Maybe she was paid to be her friend (as an assistant who was around the family). It makes a better sympathy narrative to claim they are good friends.
Im confused.
meh. just another manufactured story by the karda$$ians.
I don’t mind the shilling and the soulless promotion but I have to draw the line at being friends with Joe Francis.
How can any decent human being be friends with Joe Francis?
Well, they would have to be 1. Decent and 2. Human beings; the Kardashians fail on both counts……
That hair looks like some rare animal hide. It would be fun if he scored a contract with Pantene.
Spoiler alert: Bruce isn’t just trying to get back at Kris by dating her friend. He’s going to hit her where it hurts. He’s going to start his OWN Keeping Up With The Kardashians knock off show featuring himself, this Ronda chick and a reluctant Kylie Jenner as three high profile sisters getting up to slutty highjinks. Brace yourselves for slapping fights over who gets to be Kim and guest appearances by Brody Jenner as the “momager”
I don’t believe Kris has a friend. I don’t think you can’t count Satan as a friend he would be more of a co worker.
I just about spit out my drink. Hysterical!!
I never comment on here but damn that was good. lol!!
wow, so because some family friend goes out with bruce, now they’re dating?! I guess Bruce is dating Leah, too, she’s in proximity to him. so silly. i don’t think they’re dating. I dont think bruce is transitioning either. and i don’t think khloe’s dad is the hairstylist, or lionel richie. lol, all the rumors
What makes some of you think Bruce is transitioning?
To start with shaving his larynx. That’s a procedure usually done in gender transitioning. Growing his hair long and the repeated nose jobs. These are obvious attempts to feminize his features.
He’s always had long hair on and off. Google his Olympic days. Michael Douglas gets lots of plastic surgery but no one accuses him of transitioning.
She has a friend? Is that the headline?
I doubt that Kris is devastated. Wasn’t she seen, not too long after they separated, frollicking with the guy from The Bachelor/Bachelorette (don’t know which one), Ben Flavik (sp?), in Mexico? More PR bs.
Man, he is starting to look like Steven Tyler.
Rob should become a plastic surgeon so he can make himself useful to this family!
Yeesss they could do a special for their show where every member of the family gets a new(er) face designed by Rob and if they’re lucky it will be as good as his socks designs.
IF Kris is devastated (highly doubtful), it’s only because she hasn’t come out with someone first. I agree with her “daunting” quote though. What 20-something rapper is going to date her? Isn’t that the Kardashian dating pool?
I don’t believe for a moment that Kris Jenner has enough love in her body to give a rat’s ass who Bruce decides to date. She is an ice queen in my book and only cares about two things, her money and getting some on the side. And really is he dating this woman or are they simply friends going out to dinner? Only the Kardashian spin crew knows for sure! As for the long hair Bruce is just going back to his youth when long hair was in. It is not such a big deal to me. Hopefully he has enough money in the bank to do nothing but golf all day and go out with interesting people at night.
I don’t think Kris feels that way about Bruce that she’s hurt by this. She’s into open relationships and she’s wrung Bruce dry. There’s nothing left of him that she wants.
They were going to a concert, it’s not a date date unless they say so. Men and women can be friends without being lovers (gasp!). So without other evidence, we don’t know. Honestly, if he brought a male friend you all would be calling him gay…. But I think Bruce is actually looking more like himself these days. Maybe he’s less stressed without Demon Wife.
dude really does look like a lady.
