Jazz Jennings from 'I am Jazz' has grown up living the glamorous camera life, be it modeling or acting. Post her recent gender affirmation surgery that we saw on the previous season, Jazz is one step closer to feeling whole and complete in her own skin.

The reality show focuses on the life and family of Jazz Jennings, a transgender girl in her 20s. Since she was dealing with a lot mentally the past season, it caused her to binge-eat which resulted in major weight gain. We now get to see the new challenges and struggles she faces in order to fit in and be accepted for who she is. Here's what you need to know ahead of the season's return.
