Reality TV personality Caitlyn Jenner has revealed that she keeps her Olympic gold medal in her make-up drawer.

The 65-year-old "I Am Cait" star, known as Bruce Jenner before undergoing gender transition, won the men's decathlon at the 1976 Summer Olympics and considers the accolade her "most prized possession," reported Daily Mirror.

"I'm very proud of it (the medal).
