The stepchildren of the woman who was killed in the Bruce Jenner car accident that happened in February are lawyering up for a wrongful death lawsuit, reports TMZ, though they had no relationship with their stepmom.

Kim Howe was driving her Lexus on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California on Feb. 7 when Jenner, 65, crashed into her, launching her car into the lane of oncoming traffic where a Hummer struck her car and killed her.

Howe's husband died in 2003. Her parents are deceased. She has no direct relatives, according to TMZ.

Howe, 69, does have two adult stepchildren that do not live in California. People close to Howe told TMZ she had "virtually no relationship" with either stepchild.

Nonetheless, both stepchildren have lawyers as they are the only people with a legal right to file a wrongful death lawsuit. In California, stepchildren can legally sue even if estranged from the stepparent.

TMZ previously reported that an MTA video exists showing Jenner at fault for the car accident. He told police at the scene that Howe, the Lexus driver, slammed on her brakes, making it impossible for him to avoid the crash. The video allegedly shows the Lexus barely moving and Howe not, at any time, slamming on her brakes. Bruce appears unaware of the traffic in front of him until it is too late and he slams on the brakes. The video allegedly shows him hitting the Lexus "violently" and causing it to collide with the Hummer, killing Howe.

Jenner has not been prosecuted for the car crash, according to law enforcement sources, because he was not under the influence. He was also not speeding and not texting.

The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star reportedly told investigators he is taking hormones to grow breasts and as part of his gender transformation, leading some to wonder if the hormones could have contributed to the crash.

In February, the Daily Mail reported that law enforcement officials believe a Prius at the head of the four cars, including Jenner's Cadillac Escalade, caused the deadly car accident.
