Tomorrow Kim Kardashian will celebrate her 42nd birthday. Born Kimberly Noel Kardashian on 21 October 1980 in Los Angeles, California, she is one of the most famous TV personalities and entrepreneurs of all time. Kim has achieved international fame for her private life, much of it chronicled in the popular hit series Keeping Up with the Kardashians, now simply Kardashians.
This is one of the most pop reality shows of all time, chronicling the real life of Kim and her family. KK is the second of four children, Kourtney is the older sister, while Khloé and Robert are the younger siblings. Her father, Robert Kardashian, gained national fame as a member of O.J. Simpson’s legal team during the 1995 murder trial, and her mother, Kris, is now the manager of the entire family. After Kris and Robert divorced in 1989, Kris married Bruce (later Caitlyn) Jenner, by whom she had two daughters, Kendall and Kylie.
Throughout the years we have heard a lot about Kim Kardashian, she has been a regular presence in the tabloids and much attention has been paid to her various relationships. With two marriages behind her, in May 2014 Kim Kardashian married Kanye West. A few years later, however, in 2021, the couple – with no less than four children in tow – officially announced their divorce.
Kim Kardashian’s life is not all glamour and glitter and even her childhood was not. Many remember Kim for her iconic status, others for her scandals, still others for her entrepreneurial successes, gossip and inevitable fame.
Everyone criticises Kim K. but everyone would love to live even a single day of her glossy life amidst luxury, privilege and the affection of a huge extended family. Here are some of her most recent best looks, including street style, fashion shows and red carpets.
