Why Caitlyn Jenner Is Seeking Access to Late Friend's Apple Account
Caitlyn Jenner has asked for access to her late friend Sophia Hutchins' Apple account, claiming it holds essential business information. Jenner alleges that Hutchins owed her nearly half a million dollars.
Request for Court Order
The former Olympian filed to obtain a court order, asserting that the account contains work-related data crucial to her businesses. Hutchins' estate, led by her mother Amy, also seeks access due to financial challenges and unpaid taxes.
Legal and Financial Implications
Amy initially approached Apple for account access but was informed a court order is necessary. The filing claims issues paying income taxes, inventory assessments, and appraisals without the account details.
Background and Claims
Sophia Hutchins died on July 2, 2025, after an ATV accident in Malibu. Jenner claims Hutchins owed her $439,095.88 due to various financial advances and expenses. This includes $273,000 in bills from different businesses and over $133,000 for attorney fees.
The estate reportedly agreed to support Jenner's request for account access.
