The highly anticipated documentary House Of Kardashian is less than a month away from airing on Sky Documentaries in Britain and the show’s trailer was released on Thursday.
In the dramatic clip, Caitlyn Jenner claims Kim Kardashian has ‘calculated’ her fame in the documentary, which promises to explore how the brood became one of the world’s most productive families.
Unlike previous TV shows Keeping Up With The Kardashian’s and Hulu’s The Kardashians, the new three-part series was created without the involvement of the famous family.
The real-life factual series features unseen archival footage and first-hand testimony from the family’s inner circle.
Although Kris Jenner and the sister clan didn’t directly contribute to the show, Kris’ ex-husband and Kylie and Kendal’s father Caitlyn Jenner did.

While the trailer shows the family through various points in their journey to fame, a clip from the I’m A Celeb star’s interview is shown, as she admits: ‘Kimberly has calculated from the start: ‘How do I become famous ?’
The clip begins with a saga of statements and claims, including “they ruined the world” and “the Kardashian’s redefined the American dream.”
Meanwhile, the 73-year-old exclaims “Oh my God, here we go!”
Caitlyn’s presence in the family has been causing friction for a while now – with a memorable Keeping Up With The Kardashians scene seeing Kendall rowing with Kris for not inviting her to the family’s Christmas Eve party.
The former Olympic athlete was also said to be ‘shocked’ last year when she did not receive an invitation to Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s third wedding in Italy.
Elsewhere in the clip, the story reveals that ‘Kris wanted to be more than just a housewife’ and long-time family friend Joe Francis confesses: ‘Kim’s sex tape was a means to an end, it was (made) to stir up controversy to create’.
Kim and her ex-boyfriend Ray J, who got together in 2002 when they were both 21, made the infamous tape during her birthday party that year. It was released in 2007.
At the end of the clip, the interviewer asks Caitlyn what it was like working with her wife Kris and the star laughs.

Marriage: After tying the knot with Kris in 1991, Caitlyn became the stepfather to her children whom she welcomed with the late attorney Robert Kardashian: Kourtney, 44, Kim, 42, Khloe, 39, as well as Rob, 36
The documentary, directed by Katie Hindley and produced by Fremantle’s 72 Films in association with Sky Studios, will air on October 8.
Speaking about her involvement in the series, Caitlyn said: “I was happy to participate in the interview process to share my side, which speaks to the power, influence and ability my family has in captivating and holding the world’s attention over the years.
‘I am very proud of all my children and stepchildren.’
The drama between Caitlyn and the brood arose in 2017, when the newly transitioned Caitlyn came out with her memoir, The Secrets Of My Life, which contained a warts-and-all portrayal of Kris and their marriage.
“I tell Kris about my gender issues before I have sex with her,” Caitlyn insisted in the book, some of which Kris has publicly denied.
“This will always be a topic of discussion between Kris and I about the extent to which she might intuitively think about my gender issues. She insists she was surprised by my eventual transition to Caitlyn,” the author continued.
“I told her I had dressed like a woman, and she knew I did because I did it in front of her several times after we got married.”
The Kardashian sisters immediately closed ranks around their mother, while Caitlyn’s relationship with Khloe deteriorated into a rancorous, years-long feud.
