A polarizing interview that ABC’s Diane Sawyer conducted with Bruce Jenner aired on Friday night, with the former Olympic star describing himself as a woman. Kris Humphries, who was Jenner’s stepson-in-law for a very brief period, sent a tweet during the interview that sure made it seem like he doesn’t approve.

"Man, I'm glad I got out when I did. #Gottadoyou," Humphries wrote.

If you had forgotten that Humphries was once a part of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, that’s probably because the two-month marriage between the Washington Wizards forward and Kim K. was a sham.

Naturally, Humphries was blasted for being insensitive after sending his tweet. He claimed he was misunderstood and spoke out in support of Jenner.

"I have and always will support Bruce hence #Gottadoyou," Humphries wrote in a follow-up tweet. "Now recognize I was too vague and sincerely apologize for the way this came across."

Humphries later tweeted "#FullySupportBruce."

Humphries’ initial tweet was definitely about Jenner, no matter what he says. His marriage to Kim and ensuing divorce was an embarrassment that ended with Humphries chasing money. It’s no surprise he’s glad he “got out” when he did.
