Brody Jenner Issues Statement Defending Kaitlynn Carter Following Her Pictures with Miley Cyrus

Brody Jenner is not here for the negativity his ex, Kaitlynn Carter, has faced of late, particularly tied to her recent hangouts with Miley Cyrus.

Brody and Kaitlynn split earlier this month after a year of marriage (albeit, not the legally-binding sort).
