Her ex-husband is still not coming across as a woman to Kris Jenner, who is not able to get used to calling her Caitlyn.

Kris, who is now the head of the Kardashian clan said to Access Hollywood. that she was just adjusting to the various changes her family went through in the past year and was just starting "getting to know her" first.

"Can you call Caitlyn, Caitlyn?" Billy Bush asked Kris.

"No," she said. "I say 'Jenner.'"

It was only earlier this week that Caitlyn Jenner filed some of her papers so that she could be changed to being a woman and her name changed to Caitlyn.

Kris had been married to Caitlyn's earlier avatar in 1991, but got separated in 2013. After that, Caitlyn became a transgender and made it to the cover of Vanity Fair, where she disclosed her name in the caption as "Call me Caitlyn."

Both of them came together for the first time in the seventh and eighth episodes of Caitlyn's series, "I am Cait."

Yet one thing is sure. Kris does refer to her as a 'she', a woman.

"I just thought she would be a little bit different," Kris said. "Bruce had a distinct personality and, you know, had definite characteristics. And Caitlyn has some different ones, I feel."

"Can you ever be great friends with Caitlyn? Girlfriends?" Bush asked. "Curl up on the couch? Can this happen?"

"I don't know about curl up on the couch, but she came over for a drink last night," Kris replied. "And that was nice," according to hngn.
