He became a household name all over again thanks to his role as the patriarch in hit reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

But according to reports, Bruce Jenner has made the decision to quit the programme as he continues his quest to entirely reinvent his life.

The 64-year-old star is said to have become reluctant in terms of filming scenes for the current 11th season of the show, and will only take part in filming at his beach house in Malibu - avoiding coming into Hollywood at all costs.

And according to TMZ.com, Bruce has made the decision that he won't be returning for a twelfth season of the show if and when it gets picked up by E! for another round.

The website claims: 'Bruce has a clear vision of his life as soon as the season ends - golfing, spending time with his kids, off camera, flying helicopters and riding motorcycle.'

The recently aired second episode of the new season of the programme showed Bruce and Kris telling their children that they would no longer be living together - with Kris staying at the family home in Calabasas, and Bruce choosing to spend the majority of his time at his beach house in Malibu.

The claims surrounding Bruce come as he has hit headlines in recent weeks with his drastic change in appearance

However, despite allegations that he was undergoing gender reassignment surgery, it has since been claimed that Bruce has been having a midlife crisis and is suffering from a 'Michael Jackson-like obsession' with going under the knife. 

Changing looks: Bruce - seen here with estranged wife Kris Jenner in 2009 - has certainly altered his appearance over the years

And the argument is convincing; they point out how Bruce has moved to Malibu, bought a Harley Davidson and started wearing a ponytail.

A source told TMZ: 'Bruce is super manly. He loves sports, helicopters and cars.'

Bruce has been showing off his newly voluminous long locks this week. It’s unknown if the star has had extensions weaved into his newly-thicken hair or if it’s just a natural style after a morning of back-combing but the sporting hero looked thrilled with the results.

He's made a great recovery after he appeared frail when leaving a clinic after undergoing surgery to decrease his Adam's Apple last month.

A source claimed to The National Enquirer at the time that the 64-year-old former Olympian had undergone surgery to reduce the appearance of his Adam's Apple.

Bruce's ever changing looks have seen him become a figure of fun in the US media, with claims about him wanting to become a woman becoming talk show fodder.

And last week Jimmy Kimmel took shots at his changing looks in a fake Facebook video which he aired on his TV show.

Using the new popular Facebook look back video feature that was recently introduced to celebrate the site's 10th anniversary, Kimmel created one for the 64-year-old reality star that starts in 2004 'when you were a man.'

 Starting with images of him during his buff Olympic heyday it went all the way up to him leaving a Beverly Hills doctor's office with a bandaged neck after reportedly undergoing surgery to decrease his Adam's Apple.

There was also an apparent reference to his more feminized appearance, the video's next sequence follows with 'Now you're our weird Aunt Bess' as recent photos of Kris Jenner's estranged husband appear.
