Amir Khan slammed for calling Caitlyn Jenner ‘Bruce’ in Snapchat post
The professional boxer has been accused of transphobia after referring to Jenner as "Bruce".
Boxer Amir Khan has come under fire for misgendering Caitlyn Jenner in a Snapchat post.
The former I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here contestant has been accused of transphobia after sharing a photo of himself and Jenner on the social platform as they attended the ESPY awards in Los Angeles this week.
A Twitter user spotted Khan’s caption, which referred to Caitlyn as Bruce, and criticised the boxer.
Their tweet read: “Amir Khan is not funny for calling Caitlyn Jenner Bruce he demonstrates what a transphobic c**t he is.”
Khan, 31, also shared a video of himself high-fiving Caitlyn on Instagram and correctly tagging her Instagram handle @caitlynjenner.
The caption read: “High five on a deal with @caitlynjenner the girl next to her didn’t seem too happy about the deal”.
Amir Khan has yet to respond to the accusations.
