Caitlyn Jenner is reeling under the sudden and heartbreaking loss of her longtime friend and manager, Sophia Hutchins. The 29-year-old died on July 2 after an ATV accident near Jenner’s Malibu home. Hutchins was a businesswoman, media personality, and advocate who lived boldly and authentically.
Sophia and Caitlyn’s friendship has flourished over the years, built on trust and loyalty.
Sophia’s passing marks a devastating moment for the former Olympian, who called Hutchins not just a colleague but a family member.
Caitlyn Seen in Malibu After Tragic Accident
On Thursday, the day after the crash, Jenner was spotted for the first time in public during a quiet coffee run in Malibu. When approached by reporters from The Daily Mail, the 77-year-old said, “Tough times. I don’t want to talk.”
Jenner looked somber but composed, wearing a long-sleeved blue T-shirt, gray pants, and a visor. She briefly waved to photographers before returning to her $3.5 million Malibu mansion.
Caitlyn Jenner Seen Comforting a Grieving Mother
Paparazzi photographed Caitlyn again on Saturday morning, two days after the crash. As per photos published by The Daily Mail, Caitlyn was seen walking beside Sophia’s mother in Malibu.
In the published photos, the two women appeared quiet and reflective as they stepped out together just days after the accident. Sophia’s mother wore a green T-shirt and white shorts as she stayed close to Caitlyn during the outing.
The moment highlighted the depth of Sophia’s connection not just to Caitlyn but to the entire Jenner family.
The Crash That Took Sophia’s Life
On July 2, Sophia reportedly clipped another vehicle while riding an ATV and plunged 350 feet into a ravine near Jenner’s home. TMZ reported that she was pronounced dead at the scene.
While it’s unclear where Caitlyn was at the time of the incident, the crash took place just minutes from her Malibu property.
Sophia Hutchins Was More Than a Manager For Caitlyn
Sophia Hutchins began working as Caitlyn’s manager in 2017 after moving into her Malibu home. She took over the role from Kris Jenner following Caitlyn’s 2015 divorce and quickly became a trusted part of Caitlyn’s inner circle.
Sophia, who was also transgender, often spoke about how Caitlyn inspired her to come out while in college at Pepperdine University.
“Caitlyn is a parent to me. I have said that a million times. It is a parental, familial relationship,” Sophia told The New York Times. “We were never romantically involved.”
Sophia reflected their deep bond in both work and life, appearing in episodes of “I Am Cait,” the documentary spin-off of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.”
Sophia had close ties to the extended Kardashian-Jenner family, including regular conversations with Kris Jenner. She also shared a sweet relationship with Jenner’s daughters, Kendall and Kylie, once receiving a heart-shaped diamond necklace from them for Christmas.
“I’m on good terms with all the family, but I’m closest with Kris, Kim, Kylie, and Kendall,” Sophia said in a past interview.
In 2020, she modeled in a campaign for Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS brand, continuing her presence within the family’s world, both personally and professionally.
The Kardashian-Jenner family hasn’t publicly made any statement about Sophia’s passing yet.
