Diane Sawyer to interview Bruce Jenner for ABC special

Associated Press

NEW YORK — ABC says that Diane Sawyer will conduct a two-hour interview with Bruce Jenner that will air on April 24.

ABC says the former Olympic champion and patriarch of the Kardashian television clan will give a “far-ranging interview.” Jenner has not spoken publicly about his apparent gender transformation but he has been looking more feminine in appearance, and those in his inner circles have not challenged speculation that he is preparing to live as a woman.

There has been talk about a reality show that discusses Jenner’s transition, but the E! Entertainment network that carries Kardashian programming has not commented about it. The Sawyer interview has been rumored for several weeks, but ABC didn’t talk about it until Monday.

The interview will air at 9 p.m. on April 24.
