E! documentary series will follow Bruce Jenner’s life as a transgender woman

Note: An E! release confirmed that at this time, Bruce Jenner is choosing to not live publicly in the media as a woman. He is referred to as Bruce Jenner, and with male pronouns, in the network release, and this post will follow suit.

You’ll be able to do so when an as-yet-untitled documentary series about Bruce Jenner living his life as a transgender woman debuts on E! July 26 at 9pm ET. It will be an eight-part, hourlong series.
