I feel like I should start this post by announcing Brody Jenner is getting married! I had no idea. He and fianceé Kaitlynn Carter have been together for four years and engaged for two. They haven’t announced the actual wedding date but apparently, it will be any day now. The wedding will take place in the same place where they got engaged, Nihi Sumba, Indonesia and OMG does it look beautiful. Unfortunately, only a handful of Brody’s side will see all that beauty first hand. Both People and TMZ have confirmed that Caitlyn, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, who were all invited, are not going.
Caitlyn Jenner will not be among the guests at her son Brody‘s wedding, PEOPLE confirms.
Brody, 34, is set to tie the knot with his longtime fiancée Kaitlynn Carterin Nihi, Sumba Island, any day now, but according to a source close to the family, Caitlyn, 68, “has work commitments that have been set up for months and couldn’t be changed in the end.”
Other prominent family members that won’t be attending the nuptials? Brody’s half-sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner, 22 and 20, respectively, whom he’s grown estranged from in recent years.
“My two little sisters, we never even heard from them,” Brody recently told PEOPLE. “They never even RSVP’d, I don’t think.”
“We sent them an invite but we just never heard anything back,” he added. “Well, they’ll be missed. I would have loved to have had them there.”
TMZ goes into detail about a rift between Brody and Caitlyn that goes back to when she married Kris Jenner. Brody puts all the blame on Kris for “putting up a wall” between Caitlyn and her non-Kardashian kids. It’s all very strange. Caitlyn did attend Kaitlynn’s (I know, right?) bridal shower and spoke glowingly of the bride. The article said Caitlyn plans to throw the couple a big post-wedding party. But what could Caitlyn possibly have lined up that’s so lucrative she can’t get away for the weekend to watch her son get married?
As for Kylie and Kendall, I am less surprised there, especially if Brody has made it clear he blames Kris for everything. Not to mention they were the only sisters he invited. I get they are his half-sisters and Kim, Khloe and Kourtney are his former step-sisters, but they tend to do things as a pack. The mere exclusion of their sisters was enough to cause them to toss the invite in the trash. Plus, Brody admitted he didn’t know about Kylie’s pregnancy nor has he met her daughter Stormi so this probably wasn’t a surprise to him either. Yes, it was bad form to not even RSVP but then again, so is bringing all of this up in the press.

I know he’s just as douchey as any other reality star – but I always found him super good looking.
I think he’s the hottest guy in the Kardashian /Jenner family. Super hot!
Me too! Naturally even way better looking then Kim K
He’s very, very handsome.
I’ve seen pictures of when Caitlyn and Kris got married it was a picture if all the kids his/hers and as time went on it seemed as if it was all about her kids. Your really didnt hear about Caitlyn kids. And sometimes when your in a blended family women try to act like its gonna be one gig happy family then they slowly inch out the kids that aren’t biologically theres. And Kris seems like she would and did that and of course Caitlyn not having any balls let her.
I agree. his fiancee is also a super cute looking girl. Just beautiful.
Other than that, I know nothing about Brody besides his name.
Mr Birdix spent an evening out with him a few years back (in a group) and said he was super polite and friendly, went out of his way to be nice to everyone. Was surprised by how un-douchey he was…
Aww, that’s nice to hear. I love being pleasantly surprised by reality star attitudes. From the little I’ve seen of Brody he’s a lot more reasonable compared to the other family members. Glad he goes out of his way to be a good dude.
I met him at a “club” (in suburbia not far from Malibu so for what it’s worth, yes it was a little lame) and he was shorter than I thought and definitely had this air about him that he was too good for everyone there. But maybe he was just bored.
I know, it hurts how good looking he is!! She is just a pretty generic blonde though.
Such a sexy guy. Basically the only reason why I watched The Hills lol.
Always had a soft spot for him on that show
I know nothing about him but this photo. Very handsome !
I think it’s worse that Caitlyn isn’t attending – there’s nothing at work more important than seeing your kid get married. And it’s not like Caitlyn has regular job like us peasants where she’s at risk of getting fired.
Kyle and Kendall… well, I’m sure the falling out was for a reason. Who knows what it is though.
The only reason I know about this guy is because he went on some show… radio show maybe? and talked about how they’re barely family, that people need to understand they never grew up together, they’re not close etc. Like, it was very important to him that people don’t associate his family with the Klan. Now suddenly he’s hurt they didn’t come to his wedding? I’m no K-fan but cmon.
I think he was just trying to be polite in saying they’ll be missed. He probably invited them just to be polite, and so that the press couldn’t make a story up about bad blood between siblings.
Brody and his brothers have always said that Bruce was a very absent father. It seems that now, as Caitlyn, she hasn’t made much effort to mend those relationships. Sadly, it always seemed that Brody was the most willing to forgive, and he was very accepting of her transition. I think it’s appalling that Caitlyn is so self-absorbed that she won’t even go to her own son’s wedding. I really feel for Brody here.
Brody has seemed the most willing to forgive and the most hurt by Caitlyn and Kris excluding him. I always thought it seemed like he had a sensitive soul behind that reality show ‘star’ facade, also through that Spencer drama on The Hills.
Caitlyn has always been a shitty father to her older kids. She practically abandoned them. And now all she does is sit in her Malibu home, giving interviews and wondering why she has no relationship with her kids and no one visits her.
Just thought of something: what’s it like for LGBTQ tourists in Indonesia? Human Rights Watch says not so good. https://www.hrw.org/news/2018/02/20/indonesias-anti-lgbt-drive-should-concern-all-asia
Caitlyn gets a pass from this wedding.
If that was her reason for not attending, she would have said so. She wouldn’t just say “Sorry kiddo, too busy!” Not buying it. Caitlyn’s a shitty parent, and I really feel bad for Brody.
Yeah, pretty rude of Caitlynn not to go. I work for a prominent politician and even they get time of for significant family events. Hollywood stuff can’t be more important than governing!
Siblings however, I get it. I was grateful my brother’s wedding was out of the country and I couldn’t afford to go so that I could more politely skip it. But your own kid, come on.
I agree. When my children get married, I will move mountains to be there. Is Caitlyn busy shopping? It’s inexcusable for her not to be there.
Man, Caitlyn is really a terrible person. I can’t believe she wouldn’t shown in favor of a business opportunity when Brody participated in her boring ass show.
It always bothered me how much attention she got when there are so many other women who have gone on the same journey without the ridiculous amount of privilege, abhorrent politics, and long history of being a deadbeat dad.
I read Linda Thompson’s book (it was $1.99 on iTunes, so wth) and she did all the work raising her sons. David Foster was surprisingly responsible as a stepfather. Bruce was just MIA.
That’s what I recall, too — Bruce was pretty much absent from the older children’s lives. I recall that coming up during the interview announcing his transition, too.
Is there anyone who hasn’t been a stepchild to David foster ?
Georgia, I know! That guy gets around lol.
You’re 100% right! When Bruce was a jerk to his kids everybody blamed PMK, now Caitlyn can’t blame her.
The Kardashian – Jenner family is a mess…
Didn’t Brody complained he didn’t get a plsu one invite to kim’s wedding?
He should have invited Kim as she invited him to her wedding…
Wishing them all the best.
But man, this family confuses the sh!t out of me. It took me a while to figure out he was Caitlyn’s son from her Bruce times. For some reason, my mind confused Caitlyn and Kris and went: “Wait, he’s Kris’s son, and is a Jenner, but not a full brother of Kendall or stepbrother of Kim… What?”
Nothing to see here, move along…
“ work commitments” ?
Sounds more like Caitlyn is being the self absorbed and not involved parent she has always been. How sad
And, isn’t Caitlyn engaged? I’m sure she’ll expect Brody to be at her wedding.
Nah, destination weddings follow different rules of thumb. Even Father of the Groom gets a pass if it’s a destination wedding.
If you have a destination wedding, you will very likely have many fewer guests who can attend than if you have a wedding in your town.
That’s part of the deal with destination weddings. But geez, RSVP!
Both my daughters had destination weddings (Mackinac Island, Jackson Hole). They were lovely weddings, not everyone could attend, and bride and groom were okay with that.
One of my friends got married at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island. Such a beautiful spot, and a fun trip!
I’ve never been to Jackson Hole, but my sister honeymooned there, and the pictures were gorgeous. Your daughters have good taste!
These are very wealthy people.. I am sure they could of attended. Kylie just promoted via Instagram …. and his Dad is retired.
My sister had a destination wedding. Our parents still put aside the time and money to see her married. No real excuse there, honestly, at least where Caitlyn is concerned. They’ve got the money.
This! The Destination Wedding rule is generally for the middle and lower class income families.
When your child gets married, you go.
He is HOT…. that’s all
lol who is Caitlin trying to kid? Bridal showers are the worst, Bachelor parties are way better. So are bachelorette parties.
Maybe when you’re trans, a bachelor party is am embarrassing exhibit of outdated gender norms, complete with pressure on the men to behave in ways that might be really uncomfortable.
I was about to say, they so are! You basically watch your friend open a bunch of gifts and then you eat some cake. Some lame games might be thrown into the mix (sometimes they are fun and more creative but it’s rare). I’ve decided if I ever get married I don’t want a bridal shower. They are pretty boring!
Doesn’t Brody know he was just a prop for their show several years ago. Better off without all of them. He certainly is handsome. Shame
IKR? He thinks he’s still important in the Kardashians’ world. No excuse for Caitlin though. Watch, she’ll be seen golfing or something instead of going to his son’s wedding. SMH
This was his wake-up call about the amount his half-sisters and dad care about him. They dont. He will be happier without them in his future life with his lovely wife.
Brody sounds very close to his mother and his brother. Brandon is married now and has a child, so they all have a nice family unit that can stick together without these toxic relatives.
I’m in Indonesia at the moment. I’ve never been to Sumba, but it strikes me as a pretty full-on destination wedding location…firstly, there’s malaria, so probably the guests would have to take anti-malarials, and secondly, it is a long flight even from the west coast of the USA. It would probably take a full day of travel (at least). You’d probably want to clear 4 days in your schedule for it, and you’d be crazy jet-lagged. I mean, they can’t have been hoping for a massive attendance…
I wonder if they chose that place because of surfing, I follow various surfers on ig and I often see him with them. Betet Merta (surfer from Bali) posted some photos with him a few days ago
Brody is thirsty AF and his sisters are his boy conduit to relevance.
Also if it was Kris keeping his father from him – what’s the excuse now? I reckon Caitlyn is, and always has been, a shitty parent – regardless of who she is/was married to.
Brody was actually famous way before the Kardashians I guess he didn’t manage to capitalise as much but I guess the men never can.
Sure but he was a secondary character on a reality show 15 years ago – he is totally irrelevant now – but apparently rly desperate for attention as ever.
Anyone else remember Princes of Malibu? This guy has been trying to make a name for ages, but never quite made it past ‘xyz’s love interest’ or ‘xyz’s friend’
Is he? Seems he and his brother have been quite discreet since they stopped appearing on various shows.
Does “work commitments” mean a papped run to Starbucks? Caitlyn is in the Daily Mail almost daily on a coffee run.
his fiancee is very pretty also it looks natural! Caitlin should attend. It’s so rude for his sisters not to send regrets. it leaves the bride hanging.
Kylie and Kendall should have responded, that’s a very classless thing to do. And Caitlyn should get her ass on a plane and BE THERE. It’s her son. She got off easy because Linda Thompson did all the parental heavy lifting, it’s the least Caitlyn can do.
Kaitlynn sort of reminds me of his mother. That’s all I have. It’s difficult sometimes to adhere to the standards and tone set by most of the commenters herein who invariably take the high road.
I am just wondering if there is an issue for a transgender person traveling to Indonesia and maybe that’s why she’s not going? I know the government there is prettt strict and right wing. However with this family I would assume if that’s the case they would be all over that so that may not be the case
Woah, Indonesians are pretty conservative but the government is far from being right wing. Transgenders might not get it easy, but they are free to roam everywhere, especially tourist destinations like Sumba. Caitlyn will definitely be fine there.
A few countries on the other side of the world have surprisingly more tolerant attitudes towards transgender people, even recognizing third gender legally and officially, as opposed to just two genders (e.g. India). I’m not sure if Indonesia is like that, however I don’t believe she will have a problem going to Indonesia regardless, especially if it’s a destination resort. Caitlyn just didn’t care to go, period. She has always been an absentee father and has always made excuses for it, including the gender identity issues and letting Kris take the fall for everything.
I’d like to add that I meant countries in Asia, a continent unfortunately typically thought of as backwards at times. Not my own personal opinion, FYI.
I’m Indian and have been to India many times. A lot of transgender individuals live in colonies together in India because their families want nothing to do with them. They make money by showing up at weddings and “blessing” the couples. A lot of Indians believe transgender people can put curses on you…so they give as much money as they can to them. It’s insane and India has a long way to go.
@me yes I read that too. I’m hoping that some new legislation recognizing third gender will be the beginning of something better for the transgender community.
So did Caitlyn choose that name when Brody was dating Kaitlynn? That is messed up!
I was thinking the same thing. The irony of it all!
Yes. She said she really liked the name.
She did? That’s interesting. The best part is she chose to spell her name with a C, not the dreaded K!!! Lol…..
I believe she said that she chose the name Caitlyn a very long time ago and has been calling herself that for most her life.
I’m confused. Is Cassandra not invited?
Maybe Caitlin’s 21 year old “friend” didn’t get an invite so she’s decided not to go. You know the one she is papped constantly with getting coffee.
Caitlyn has always been a self centered parent, doing what she pleases, when she pleases and without regard for her children. She basically abandoned her three sons and daughters when she became part of the Kardashian machine, so this wedding snub is not a shock by any means. Brody has always been the one son who has held her accountable for her actions and called her on her bullshit.
Sad for a father not to go to their son’s wedding. Work commitments are more important?!
Reguardless of their history, it is rude for sisters to not even respond. Silent treatment is emotionally abusive. Easier and more respectful to just check no. I’m sure they have plenty of assistants who could have done at least that.
As far as Brody telling the press… good for him. Why lie to cover up someone else’s bad behavior?
Oh I totally agree.

Yes, Lisa! Absolutely right. She’s scum.
The irony in all of this is that the only children who truly supported Caitlyn’s transition were the older ones. Kylie and Kendall of their dad, but were in the middle of the storm between Caitlyn and Chris…And they truly identify as Kardashians, something I never understood…
Caitlyn and Kaitlyn?! Imagine always being “the other C/Kaitlyn Jenner”?
Brody has been so supportive of Caitlyn’s transition so I can’t say I blame him for being upset. However, Caitlyn has never been a good father to him, so he shouldn’t be surprised. I’m not surprised about his half sisters either. They identify with the Kardashian side and don’t seem to care much about the Jenner side.
And I co-sign that Brody is hot. I loved his friendship with Lauren on The Hills.
I can’t believe Brody even wants her there. Jenner treated the first 4 children appallingly. Did nothing to help raise them and dumped them when he moved on to wife #2 and then dumped the next 2 when he dumped wife #2 (don’t @ me, he was a he then so that’s the pronouns I’ll use).
On an episode of KUWTK he even had the audacity to whine that Brody should just get over the fact that his father abandoned him when something shinier came along. I would have cut all contact at that point.
There is NO reason at all for a very rich parent to miss their child’s wedding. Jenner was a narcissistic piece of crap when he was a man and is a narcissistic piece of crap as a woman.
Yes! For everyone who tries to blame PMK…yeah she’s probably Satan, but in this instance, not. Bruce (using this name/male pronouns bc that’s who he was on the show at the time) literally told Brody that he should have gotten over all of that and left it in the past. Brody approached him respectfully and thoughtfully (which I was surprised by) and Bruce immediately got defensive and dismissed him outright. On television. Bruce or Cait-she has never been a good person.
Caitlyn has always been and will always be a terrible and self-centered parent. She dumped the Jenner boys when she married Kris – you can look back on their family Christmas cards and see the point where the boys were jettisoned. She’s done the same with Kylie and Kendall since the split with Kris as well. Neither girl has a relationship with their brothers, because they were never a blended family.
So money is more important to Cailtyn than her own son’s wedding??!! I’m also disappointed with Kendall and Kylie. They should have gone.
All I have to say is not RSVPing to a wedding or other social event where money is involved is so beyond rude!!! It was the biggest pain in ass in my wedding process. Really, they mean to tell us that a personal assistant couldn’t just check the ‘no’ box and mail it back?! It most likely had a stamp on the envelope. So beyond rude.
I don’t even know. Lord help me but dang, he’s hot. His fianceé is super pretty!
The K family love pretending that they are close but in reality they are not. None of them can stand Kim except for Kris and Kourtney. Khloe hates Kris and Kim. The nicest are Khloe and Kylie, who is really sweet. Kendall and Kourtney are super mean girls. Plus we all see how vicious Rob can get.
I remember Khloe saying that before they started filming their show, her and Kim never really spoke. I believe that.
Really?! Interesting!
Kim said it too,that before the show she did not know Khloé at all.
The thing that stands out to me about Kim is how unbelievably boring she is. Like she doesn’t have a personality aside from her beauty.
If he wants to grow as a person and a man he needs to let go of his hate for what occurred over twenty years ago. It’s all he talks about to the press. With that said, there is nothing that would keep me from my child’s wedding. I do not understand anything this family does. They all seem very self serving and in the end lose sight of what’s really important. It’s a sad existence.
This family sure loves their tacky flower walls don’t they?
Ugh I loved Brody way back when he was on The Hills. I really thought he would have had a bigger career but he seemed to have laid low and found a nice girl. He makes a better model than Kendall.
