Caitlyn Jenner is now legally a woman, after her official name and gender change was approved in a court hearing today.
The
65-year-old star, formerly known as Bruce before undergoing a gender
transition in May, filed court documents at Los Angeles County Superior
Court seeking the change earlier this month.
Now a judge has approved her request, making her name Caitlyn Marie Jenner.
The
star was not present for the short hearing, but the judge signed off on
the changes after confirming there were no objections, according to
TMZ.
The former Olympian previously requested that the information
necessary to complete the request, including her medical history, be
sealed from public record, as she has received some "unwelcome negative
attention from private citizens."
No doubt it will be celebrations for the whole family now.
