Kris Jenner Early Life
She had a tumultuous upbringing, what with her father’s allegedly toxic nature and their constant bickering. When she was seven years old, her parents split, and her mother was awarded exclusive custody of the children because of domestic strife.
Mary Jo stayed in Clairemont, California, to raise Kris and her younger sister Karen after Robert abruptly disappeared. Sometime later, her mother remarried a man named Harry Shannon. Kris received his diploma from Clairemont High School in 1973. After finishing high school, she worked at a donut store and then joined American Airlines for a year.
Kris Jenner Family
On July 8, 1978, Kris tied the knot with Robert Kardashian. When she was 17, the two of them met. They had four children: daughters Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe, and a son named Rob. In the 1990s, while O.J. Simpson was on trial for murder, Robert Kardashian gained notoriety as one of the star defense attorneys representing him. By 1991, Robert and Kris’ marriage was officially over. Robert passed away from esophageal cancer in 2003.
Kris married Olympic athlete Bruce Jenner in 1991. After dating for only five months, they got engaged. Kendall and Kylie are Bruce and Kris’s, daughters. After the couple tied the knot, Kris took on the role of Jenner’s manager, managing the family brand by securing endorsement deals and marketing his career.
They broke up in June of 2013, and their divorce was finalized in December 2014. Bruce started passing for a female and eventually came out as transgender in April 2015, at which time he legally changed his name to Caitlyn.
Kris Jenner’s Reality Tv
Kris Jenner and producer Ryan Seacrest first discussed a reality program on Kris and her family’s lives as celebrity influencers in 2007. The idea came from TV producer Deena Katz, who had visited her eccentric home and found it entertaining before realizing it might make a good reality show. Because Seacrest owned his own production firm, he was able to send a cameraman to the family’s house to film them in their element.
He looked over the tape and decided to press forward with the project, drawing inspiration from the hit MTV series “The Osbournes.” It was then that the idea for “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” was conceived. The entertainment network E! picked up Jenner’s show, and she’ll be serving as an executive producer going forward.
KW Skincare & Makeup
Kris and her daughter Kim Kardashian launched a cosmetics line in 2017. KKW was valued at $1 billion after cosmetics giant Coty Inc. purchased a 20% share in the company in June 2020 for $200 million. Kris had an 8% stake in KKW prior to the sale. At the time of the transaction, that 8% would have been worth $80 million before taxes.
Kylie Products
Kris was also involved in Kylie Cosmetics, but she kept a low profile. It was disclosed in November 2019 that Kris possessed a 10% investment in Kylie Cosmetics when the same business, Coty Inc, paid $600 million for a 51% stake. Coty said in subsequent months that Kris had sold half of her interest in the $600 million deal, netting her $30 million before taxes. Her 5% share was still worth $30 million.
Kris Jenner’s Career
In addition to his role as a star on “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” Los Angeles-based Jenner also manages Jenner Communications. She has five daughters and manages their respective jobs, therefore she calls herself the “momager” of the family.

She also authored the cookbook “In the Kitchen with Kris: A Kollection of Kardashian-Jenner Family Favorites” because of her love of cooking. Released in October 2014, it is currently available for purchase.

The year 2014 saw the beginning of Kris and Corey Gamble’s relationship, who is in the entertainment industry. She is 25 years older than him.
