Amidst all this, Kris also divorced her longtime partner Katie whilst assuming co-parenting responsibilities for their son Tucker.
Now, Kris has decided to come out and openly speak about everything in an exclusive interview with Anthony Padilla. Speaking about opening up to her friends (MrBeast and Co), Kris said, “There was one moment I was sitting around all the guys and I just had been really like thinking all that day about my gender and everything and combined with the apple juice (alcohol), I just blurted out to them, I don’t want to be a man anymore.”
Interestingly, according to Kris, this had taken place almost three years ago. As such, she had only decided to transition late last year. Moreover, Kris also revealed that she had the full support of her friends which gave her the confidence to make the decisions she did. With that said Kris reportedly didn’t need to have to hold her tongue and not say things that would ‘out’ her.

With Kris finally finding herself and being comfortable in her own skin, supporters and allies are keen to know what she will do next. According to Kris, the possibilities are endless, and with the support of her friends, she feels as though she can do whatever it is that she wants to.
As such, Kris says, She said, “It really feels like, for the first time, like, ‘I can do anything’. I can be who I want to be. I can create a channel if I want to, I can write a book if I want to, I can maybe produce a film if I want to.” Further, she adds, “I can finally be able to be myself, and that spills out onto other areas of my life.” With the release of the interview, reactivated and changed her name on her social media accounts.
At the moment, it is unknown whether Kris will be rejoining the MrBeast crew and continue to film videos with them.
