All about Esther Jenner, conclusion
In an interview, Esther described the show as “plotless,” adding: “I wasn’t fond of that program. There was no plot, and why it was such a hit I’ll never know.”
“When your child becomes, oh golly, world-famous, it’s very difficult for a mother to put them in that category, she’s not a celebrity to me, she’s my kid.”
She added: “It’s just very difficult, but I’m no different than any other mother, I love my kids.”
Esther also branded Caitlyn’s appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! “torture” to watch, vowing not to tune in to the show.
In an exclusive interview with Sun Online, Esther blasted: “That’s not entertainment to me, to see somebody frightened. I think she could spend a lot more pleasant times on the golf course.”

All about Esther Jenner
Caitlyn Jenner was born Bruce Jenner on October 28, 1949.
Her parents Esther and William raised her just outside of New York City.
Caitlyn was known as Bruce until June 2015, when she announced she was transitioning, and then had gender reassignment surgery in January 2017.
Caitlyn had a rather different upbringing from her mother, who grew up on a small farm where her family had three cows, a flock of chickens, and grew their own vegetables.
But the pair were understood to be pretty close, so much so that they speak on the phone almost every day.
And Esther, in her 90s, was very supportive of Caitlyn’s transition, saying: “It’s nothing she asked for, it’s a condition and it starts in the mother’s womb.”
