Sophia Hutchins insisted she’s ‘just friends’ with I’m A Celebrity’s Caitlyn Jenner, amid intense speculation and ‘romance’ claims.

And, in fact, she revealed, there’s a new beau in her life.

Sophia, who has said Caitlyn, 70, inspired her own transition journey, met the reality star through their mutual makeup artist.

But 23-year-old beauty entrepreneur, who lives in Malibu with the Olympian, shut down rumours once and for all in a New York Times interview.

She said: ‘We were never romantically involved. But we weren’t addressing it.

‘I don’t feel a need to address my sex life, quite frankly, unless I want to.’

Later Sophia confessed there is someone special in her life – a 30-year-old man who recently graduated from Harvard.

Sophia did dish a little about her relationship with Caitlyn on The Hidden Truth Show last year.

She said: ‘I wouldn’t describe it as romantic.

‘We’re partners in everything we do. We’re inseparable, we’re business partners, we live together, we share a dog, we share family, we share a life together.’

When Sophia met Caitlyn the former Olympian was without a manager after parting ways with ex-wife Kris Jenner.

She said: ‘I saw nobody managing Caitlyn and there were all these people taking massive advantage.

‘And I was saying “Caitlyn, if I don’t step in here and start managing you you’re going to go broke.’

Sophia now takes a ten percent cut on deals she negotiates on Caitlyn’s behalf including the star’s appearance on I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here.

She bragged the fee was reportedly the biggest paid to a celebrity in the show’s 19-series history.

‘We made a lot of money together,’ she added.

Sophia, who calls the Jenner-Kardashian clan her extended family, said she is especially close with Kris, Kim, Kylie and Kendall.

In April she is launching Lumasol, her own brand of makeup-setting mist containing SPF.

Sophia partially credits Caitlyn for helping her get meetings to secure funding for the venture, and has now raised $3million (£2.25m).

But she doesn’t expect her famous friends to shill for her, adding: ‘If I want someone in that clan to promote the product they’re going to be compensated.

‘And these girls are not cheap.’
