Caitlyn Jenner Gets Huge Payday For I Am Cait — Find Out How Much, Plus How It Compares To Kris’ Salary!
The Kardashians reportedly made bank when they inked a $100 million deal with E! to renew Keeping Up With the Kardashians, but Caitlyn Jenner is slated to get a pig pay day, too.
According to RadarOnline, the 65-year-old is getting paid $5 million for her docu-series I Am Cait which premieres July 26.
A source told Radar it’s the most the network has ever dished out for a show centering on one individual and it may be more than what her ex Kris Jenner makes on KUWTK!
“It’s the biggest paycheck ever given by E! for a solo reality show, and Caitlyn’s agent was relentless in getting her the huge payday,” an insider told Radar.

The report says the original offer was $2 million but when Caitlyn shopped around her show, the $5 million offer happened. That’s more than enough to pay for her surgery, which reportedly added up to about $4 million.

And it technically may be more than what Kris is making for her E! show! A report from March said Kris is making $15 million off of KUWTK, but that’s for four years of the show and its spinoffs. Caitlyn’s payday length is unknown but it’s likely a year or two.
Caitlyn also is done with the Kardashians’ show. OK! previously reported that she’s no longer willing to go on the show now that she has her own and “has much bigger projects in mind now.” And her own money!
