The rumor of I Am Cait Season 2 has turned into a confirmed reality. A month after word leaked that E! had picked up the series for a second season, the star herself has come out and issued a statement.

I Am Cait debuted in July to 3.9 million viewers, but that figure dropped by 700,000 households after just one episode. While ratings failed to match those of Keeping Up with the Kardashians , though, Caitlyn has only seen her national profile gain momentum over the past several months. She just signed on, in fact, for a five-city motivational speaking tour . “Caitlyn’s story has ignited a global conversation on the transgender community on a scale that has never been seen before,” said E! EVP, programming and development, Jeff Olde. “We are honored Caitlyn has chosen to continue to share her ongoing evolution with our viewers around the world.” Jenner, of course, came out as a woman in an interview with Diane Sawyer in late April and then in a subsequent Vanity Fair photo spread. She is considered a trendsetter and a role model in the LGBT community. No word yet on when new episodes of I Am Cait will air, but original word said the series would return some time this spring. Until then, you can always visit our friends at TV Fanatic and watch I Am Cait online . View Slideshow: Caitlyn Jenner Photos: So Long, Bruce!
