On Friday, October 22, Skims founder Kim Kardashian spent her birthday along with her kids, attending a basketball game for her nine-year-old daughter North along with her oldest son, six-year-old Saint. She wore a black jumpsuit with a Balenciaga bag and black flip flops, and left her long blonde hair down.
She later enjoyed a quiet family bash, TMZ reports, having a couple of family and friends to her office space in Calabasas, including Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, and Kendall Jenner.
Kim did see her ex-husband, Kanye West, at their kid’s game, but they’re reportedly not talking to each other within the midst of West’s public anti-semitic statements. They sat individually within the stands and didn’t interact. Kim filed for divorce in February of 2021, and the pair appeared to have a functional co-parenting relationship for some time. Then the wonder mogul began dating comedian Pete Davidson and West began his online attacks of his ex-wife and the previous Saturday Night Live star. She and West share 4 children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, who’re 4 and three, respectively.
Kim’s sister Khloé Kardashian posted a loving tribute to her on Instagram, writing, “Comfortable birthday Keeks! My brave, remarkably resilient sister, joyful birthday! Life doesn’t get easier or more forgiving we simply turn out to be more resilient and, in my view, you might be the poster child of resilience… So thanks for birthdays because you’ve gotten gotten stronger, wiser, braver, more vocal along with your beliefs. You might have managed to turn out to be kinder and gentler the more years which have passed by. I assumed people got grumpier the older that they became, but you’ve gotten turn out to be a more self-aware, loving and patient person.”
She went on, “The busier you turn out to be, the more you give to those you like. You give your absolute all in every area of your life. Whatever you set your mind to, you accomplish and also you accomplish that to the very best degree whether it’s being a mom, sister, daughter, best friend, aunt, entrepreneur, lawyer, (I can go on and on)… One way or the other each thing you do in your life, you do To the utmost level and you will not accept anything less. Your drive for all times inspires me each day.”
