Bruce Jenner publicly announced her transition to Caitlyn Jenner in 2015, with the most iconic public moment being the Vanity Fair cover and name reveal in June 2015 after the April 2015 interview where she spoke about being a woman. The official public timeline is:
- April 24, 2015: Diane Sawyer interview where she publicly discussed transitioning.
- June 1, 2015: Vanity Fair cover and the headline “Call me Caitlyn,” introducing Caitlyn to the world.
- September 2015: Legal name and gender changes were finalized in many jurisdictions.
For context, this was widely reported across major outlets at the time, marking Caitlyn’s public emergence as her chosen identity [web sources reflect this sequence]. If you’d like, I can pull recent, up-to-date sources confirming the same timeline.
