“Karen’s passing is an indication that life is incredibly short and precious, & tomorrow is never promised,” the reality star continued. We have to express our affection to the people we hold dear. My lovely sister, I adore you. Over the years, Jenner and Karen exchanged old pictures, one of which showed Karen embracing a youthful Rob Kardashian.

The sisters were also shown with Kris and Karen’s mother, Mary Jo “MJ” Houghton, and Robert Kardashian Sr, Jenner’s late ex-husband.
