Kendall Jenner allegedly made some shocking comments regarding her father's, Bruce Jenner, transition from a man to a woman and now Us Weekly has retracted a story in which she says, "I will always love my dad."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, a story with the headline "Kendall Jenner Breaks Silence on Bruce Jenner's Transition: 'I Will Always Love My Dad'" was published on Wednesday (March 18). The reality star and model reportedly gave the quote during an interview backstage at Comedy Central's roast of Justin Bieber taping this past weekend.

The daughter of the decathlon Olympian had been quoted saying, "He's a wonderful man. And just because he's changing shoes now, so to speak, doesn't make him less wonderful. I will always love my dad, whether he's a man or a woman."

Jenner later took to Twitter to share her disdain with the article's content after it was published. She denied saying the things quoted in the article.

"How is it legal for someone to "quote" someone and publish it if in fact you never said what was quoted," she wrote. "Shame on US Weekly for making up quotes. I NEVER said those things. I never spoke to them."

Us Weekly retracted the story Thursday and went on to delete it from their website. However, the story remains archived by Google's Wayback Machine.

"When Ms. Jenner denied, via Twitter, that the interview took place, Us Weekly immediately reached out to the freelance reporter. He stood by the interview, and continues to maintain that the quotes are accurate," read the retraction. "However, after attempting to reconfirm his account, editors of Us have concerns about the veracity of this interview and the circumstances under which it was obtained. We would like to retract the story entirely and have removed it from our website. We sincerely apologize to Ms. Jenner and her family."
