Caitlyn Jenner revealed her children still call her dad, even after her transition to become female.

She has six children and 20 grandchildren, with Kylie and Kendall Jenner her most famous offspring.

On tonight's I'm a Celeb Kate asked Caitlyn what her children called her. 

Caitlyn said : “My kids all call me Dad, Kendall asked me first and I said ‘Dad’, I’m your Dad and I’ll always be your Dad till the day I die.

"But what they’re really good at which shocks me all the time is when they’re talking about me, my Dad she and it’s tough to change the pronoun in the middle of it.”

Kate asked if Caitlyn felt like their Father, Caitlyn said: “Bruce raised them and Caitlyn is enjoying their life with them.”

Jacqueline and Kate said that was a lovely thing. 

Kate asked how many grandchildren Caitlyn had, and she said “20 in December.”

Kate said “Wow, what do they call you?” Caitlyn said: “They’ve come up with ‘Boom Boom’, it kinda stuck, it was easy for them to say.”

The conversation still on families, Kate said they were all a range of ages, with Caitlyn being 70 years old, Jacqueline being a Mum at 22 years old and added she was a Mum at 38 which is officially geriatric. 

Jacqueline said 38 is not geriatric.  Kate said “It is medically.”

Kate said: “When you are younger, you might feel like you know what you’re doing but actually you feel like that when you’re older.  Do you remember holding that little bundle and feeling the pressure that you’re entirely responsible.”

Caitlyn said: “Does anyone remember the first time something came out of your mouth that you’re Mother said to you?” everyone laughed. 

Caitlyn continued: “It’s so scary when you become your parents.”
