Bruce Jenner Woman Transformation Update: Gender Reassignment Next on Reality Star's List, Wants to Be Called 'Bridgitte?'

Bruce Jenner's woman transformation is still a hot topic in Hollywood after undergoing an operation to shave down his Adam's Apple and his split with wife Kris Jenner. Now, many reports are saying that Bruce is more determined to push through with his plan of becoming a woman, and he even wants people to call him "Bridgitte" from now on.

According to Hollywood Life, Bruce Jenner's woman transformation is very serious although many critics believe that this is just another trick to make "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" more controversial. The site also reports that the Olympian is now relieved that he can go through his woman-transforming surgeries now that he and wife Kris Jenner are done.

"Bruce looks back at his past fondly, but he is doing what he is doing with his facial surgeries and other changes because he is interested in his future," a source told Hollywood Life. "And the future is to be as close to a woman as possible. It's embarrassing to the family, he knows that, but he has to live his life, not Kris's life anymore."

DailyMail reported that Bruce Jenner earlier had chondrolaryngoplasty, a procedure designed to eliminate his Adam's Apple and one that is believed to be the first step in gender reassignment.

However, TMZ reported that the laryngeal shave and all of the other plastic surgery procedures do not mean that Bruce Jenner is planning to completely transform into a woman. The former athlete told TMZ that he had chondrolaryngoplasty because he "didn't like my trachea."

Nevertheless, Huffington Post reports that Bruce has been injecting estrogen lately, a gesture that was allegedly fueled by Courtney Love's rant on her Web series.

On the other hand, Daily Mail reports that to begin Bruce Jenner's woman transformation, the former athlete has actually reached out to his longtime friend, Renee Rochards, a transgender rights advocate.

Richards is reportedly acting as Bruce Jenner's "sex change coach" for his journey to becoming a woman.

A source shared that the doctor told Bruce gender reassignment is "a serious, life-altering procedure and is not something to do unless you absolutely have no other choice."

Despite Bruce Jenner's woman transformation issue, the Olympian and his now ex-wife Kris Jenner were spotted walking out at the LAX airport Wednesday as though they were still a couple. They just got back from Thailand after filming several episodes of 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians" there.
