According to the claim, more than $273,000 came from credit card purchases, including in-store and online transactions. Jenner also sought repayment for more than $133,000 in shared legal fees, nearly $16,000 in debit card charges, and roughly $7,000 in cash advances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Jenner maintained that Hutchins had permission to use her accounts for work-related matters, but that any personal spending was expected to be paid back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Hutchins and Jenner had been closely linked for nearly a decade. The two met in 2015 shortly after Jenner publicly came out as a transgender woman. Hutchins, who had already transitioned while attending college, eventually became Jenner\u2019s manager and one of her closest advisers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">She later served as CEO of the Caitlyn Jenner Foundation and appeared alongside Jenner on the <em>E! <\/em>docuseries <em>I Am Cait<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Hutchins also handled Jenner\u2019s speaking engagements and public appearances, and the pair frequently attended events together.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/pop-culture\/a\/maggie-ekberg\/caitlyn-jenner-breaks-silence-on-manager-sophia-hutchins-shocking-death\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Despite years of tabloid speculation, both women repeatedly said their relationship was not romantic.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Despite years of tabloid speculation, both women repeatedly said their relationship was not romantic.&quot;}\">Despite years of tabloid speculation, both women repeatedly said their relationship was not romantic.<\/a> \u201cWe are very close,\u201d Jenner said in 2018. \u201cWe do a lot of things together.
