One proud mama! Though Esther Jenner only made a brief appearance during Bruce Jenner‘s 20/20 special with Diane Sawyer, the 88-year-old mother of the former Olympian happily watched her son’s historic interview.
“I think that 20/20 and Diane Sawyer did a fabulous job,” Esther told Access Hollywood. “I think it was very educational, and I hope to get more education.”
The soon-to-be great grandmother (thanks to Brandon and Leah Jenner) admitted that she hasn’t spoken with her son since the interview aired, saying, “I don’t want to bring it up with him.”
But during the segment, Esther offered up her support to her son in a separately taped clip, saying, “I want you to be happy, and I love you. I was very proud of you when you stood on that podium in Montreal — I never thought I could be more proud of you, but I’m learning I can be.”
