Bruce Jenner offered no single statement to news outlets after his interview with Diane Sawyer was aired on Friday, April 24, but he was said to be feeling "relieved" about it. He, moreover, was claimed to be "overwhelmed" by those positive responds about his gender transition that people offered through social media.

"Bruce seems very relieved that the interview finally aired," a source was quoted by PEOPLE as saying. "He is overwhelmed by all the positive comments on social media following the interview."

The source, moreover, stated Bruce "feels very good" because his intention of coming out is to "help other people in his shoes." The source continued, "He also seems very happy that he is moving forward with his transition," adding that in the past couple of weeks, the former Olympian "seems more comfortable with his new life. He leaves his house wearing lip gloss and nail polish. He seems more confident, relaxed and definitely more happy."

In line with the source's claim, another source close to the family testified that Bruce's "so relieved." The source told PEOPLE, "Like a big weight is off of his shoulders. The whole family is relieved too."
