Kim Kardashian's former hubby took a swipe at her dad...

It's awesome how everyone has been so supportive and understanding about Bruce Jenner's confirmation that he is changing gender isn't it?

Everyone except for Kim Kardashian's ex-husband Kris Humphries that is, who has found himself in the firing line after responding scornfully to Jenner's interview with Diane Sawyer on US TV.

Man, I'm glad I got out when I did. #Gottadoyou

— Kris Humphries (@KrisHumphries) April 25, 2015

He tweeted: "Man, I'm glad I got out when I did. #Gottadoyou"

But the basketball star was swiftly buried by an avalanche of disapproving responses from other, more broad-minded, Twitter users.

@GemzGazBailey11 wrote: "Lol at kris humphries claiming glad he got out when he did because of bruce jenner transition.. u were put out with the trash mate #knobhead"

And @patmuldowney said: "Kris Humphries saying he's glad he got out when he did is like sayin you were gonna quit the day after you got fired."

While @jmalaguti kept it simple, telling him: "@KrisHumphries youre a bad person!"

In case you'd forgotten, Humphries was married to Kim for 72 days in 2011 before she filed for divorce.

Bruce Jenner: Through The Years

In his younger years, Bruce used to try on his sister's dress and his mum's scarves. “I didn’t know why I was doing it, except it just made me feel good.”

Bruce Jenner’s first wife Chrystie Crownover was the first person to know he was questioning his identity, in the early 1970s, when he told her that he was into “a little cross-dressing… It’s fine, we’ll work all this stuff out.”

Second wife Linda Thompson also knew, with Bruce opening up a little more, and explaining, “it’s not something you can overcome, fix or pray away.”

"Gender was a big part of the breakup...I wasn't as fair as I should have been," explained Bruce, on why his marriage to Linda collapsed.

When Bruce met Kris Jenner, he had been taking female hormones for almost five years, and had also undergone electrolysis to get rid of his beard and chest hair.

He says Kris knew he had been taking the hormones and liked wearing women's clothes, but added, "I kind of downplayed it.”

“If [Kris] were good with it, we’d probably still be together,” admitted Bruce, when speaking of his decision to transition.

Bruce isn’t gay and has no plans to enter a relationship with a man. "No, I'm not gay. I am as far as I know, heterosexual," said the 65-year-old. "I've never been with a guy, I've always been married, raising kids."

When stories about Bruce's tracheal shave leaked, he contemplated suicide, but - thankfully - talked himself out of it. “I mean, I want to know how this story ends,” he said.

Bruce's youngest children, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, once caught him trying on a dress. Kendall had set up a webcam because she thought Kylie was stealing her clothes, but then when she checked the footage, they saw their dad.

The first of Bruce's children to know about his transition was Brandon Jenner, who admits he didn't take it "perfectly" at first, but now “I feel like I’m getting an upgraded version of my dad.”

Bruce told Diane Sawyer that of his 10 children, Kim “has by far been the most accepting and easiest to talk about it with." Turns out Kanye West helped Kim by explaining to his wife that no matter how much a person has, "I’m nothing if I can’t be me.”

In fact, Kim has been so accepting of Bruce's transition that she told him, “Girl, you gotta rock it, baby. You gotta look good.”

13 of 20
Khloe Kardashian took things the hardest. “You would think that out of all the kids, Khloe is the most open-minded,” said Bruce. “She’s had the toughest time with it, because she’s had a lot of loss in her life.”

14 of 20
Kendall and Kylie had this to say about their dad's transition: “We love our dad very much, he has the biggest heart and all we want is for him to be happy, if he’s happy, we’re happy.”

15 of 20
It is thought that we'll see Bruce tell all of his children about his transition on the season finale of Keeping Up With The Kardashians on May 31st.

16 of 20
“I’d be so mad at myself if I didn’t explore that side of me,” Bruce said, on realising - in his 60s - that he didn't want to die having only lived as a man.

17 of 20
Bruce has picked a new name, but didn't reveal it to Sawyer as, "The media would go crazy".

18 of 20
Bruce may undergo a full surgical gender reassignment, but if he does, don't expect another two-hour special. “I would do it so quietly, no one in the world would ever know."

19 of 20
He believes that by speaking out on his journey, Bruce can help raise awareness and stop the stigma around LGBTQ issues. “We’re going to make a difference in the world with what we’re doing."

As I lay me down to sleep
I hear her speak to me

Hello 'Mari, how ya doin'?
I think the storm ran out of rain, the clouds are movin'
I know you're happy, cause I can see it
So tell the voice inside ya' head to believe it
I talked to God about you, he said he sent you an angel
And look at all that he gave you
You asked for one and you got two
You know I never left you
Cause every road that leads to heaven's right inside you
So I can say

Hello my only one, just like the morning sun
You'll keep on rising till the sky knows your name
Hello my only one, remember who you are
No you're not perfect but you're not your mistakes

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh the good outweighs the bad even on your worst day
Remember how I'd say
Hey hey one day you'll be the man you always knew you could be
And if you knew how proud I was
You'd never shed a tear, have a fear, no you wouldn't do that
And though I didn't pick the day to turn the page
I know it's not the end every time I see her face, and I hear you say

Hello my only one, remember who you are
You got the world cause you got love in your hands
And you're still my chosen one
So can you understand? One day you'll understand

So hear me out, hear me out
I won't go, I won't go
No goodbyes, no goodbyes
Just hello, just hello
And when you cry, I will cry
And when you smile, I will smile
And next time when I look in your eyes
We'll have wings and we'll fly

Hello my only one, just like the morning sun
You'll keep on rising till the sky knows your name
And you're still my chosen one, remember who you are
No you're not perfect but you're not your mistakes

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori ab-
I just want you to do me a favor
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about me
Tell Nori about me...
