Kendall Jenner has closed the lid on speculation about her sexuality, after revealing the truth once and for all.
There’s something about being a celebrity that seems to make people want to know who they enjoy spending time in bed with.
However, it seems like a lot of people have had their eye on Jenner for a few years, and she’s addressing it.
Jenner, who has been somewhat private with her dating life after mass attention around whether she was dating Harry Styles back in his One Direction days, recently appeared on the In Your Dreams podcast to discuss this among other topics.

Basically, people have thought that she’s 'secretly gay' and have even created Reddit threads in honor of the theory.
“There’s the whole side of the internet that thinks I’m a lesbian,” the model said to Owen Thiele, the podcast host, on Friday 9 January.
She went on to say that she wanted to talk about it on the show, while Thiele called the theory ‘hardcore’. While she confirmed she is not gay, she went on to note how ‘mean’ people have been about it.
"You want to know what really bothers me? How mean people are about it," Jenner continued. "It's not with, like, a welcoming arm of like, 'Hey, if you were, yes, come join.' It's not kind. It's very mean. It's very like, 'What the f**** are you doing?'"
Jenner went on to confirm that she is not part of the LGBTQIA+ community — but would also have no problem coming out if she were.
“I understand that coming out is not an easy thing for anybody, if not most people,” she admitted. “And I’m not saying that’s an easy thing, but knowing, and I can speak for myself here, and knowing myself, I think at this point in my life I’d be out if I was.”
The 30-year-old went on to say that, ‘knowing me and knowing how I would want to live my life, I would be [out]’ if she was in fact, attracted to the same sex.
She added: “I’d have no problem being that.”
Jenner added, "I think that there's this whole narrative that I'm hiding this thing ... I've seen really f**** up things that are like, 'It's bad for business,' and I'm like, 'What? How?' I don't understand it.
"All's to say, as of today, I am not," she ended. "I don't think I will be, but I'm not closing doors to experiences in life."
