Consumers have threatened to boycott Kylie Jenner's make-up brand Kylie Cosmetics after Caitlyn Jenner was voted off a UK reality show and none of her family showed up to meet her.
Consumers took to Twitter to show their support for Caitlyn Jenner who was a contestant on ITV’s I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!.
After being voted off the show and walking across the jungle bridge contestants are usually met by their family in emotional reunions, but no one was present to meet Caitlyn Jenner.
Consumers expressed their sadness and anger towards the Kardashian-Jenner family for failing to support their 70-year-old transgender father and grandfather, with many describing the snub as 'shameful' and 'disgusting'.
Twitter backlash
One Twitter user said they would "never buy a single Kylie product" due to the incident.
The fact you couldn't meet Caitlyn on her exit from the jungle will ensure I never buy a single Kylie product. She was absolutely amazing, i would kill to have a parent like that.

Another said "can we all just boycott the Kardashians/Jenners?".
Kim Kardashian West also has a beauty brand KKW Beauty, a make-up line that was launched in 2017.
Can we all just boycott the Kardashians/Jenner's? I really can't believe that none of Caitlyn Jenners family met her at the end of the bridge and she was so excited to see the a$$holes ?? I'm honestly heartbroken #imacelebrity

A third commented that they would "never ever buy anything from @KylieJenner's make-up range" due to the treatment of her father.
Kylie Jenner and KKW Beauty are currently running a joint promotion called the '12 Days of Christmas', with both brands launching a one-day discount until 14 December.
I will never ever buy anything from @KylieJenner make up range or anything endorsed by the #Kardashians after I had to watch poor Caitlyn leave the jungle with no one there to meet her on the bridge ? #ImACeleb
