Kylie and Kendall Jenner slammed for snubbing brother’s major milestone
KYLIE and Kendall Jenner have been slammed for snubbing their brother’s major milestone as fans say sisters fail to do the bare minimum.
Kardashian fans discussed the sibling slight on a Reddit board dedicated to the famous family.
Caitlyn Jenner’s ex-wife Linda Thompson, 73, threw her son, and the Hulu star’s half-brother Brody Jenner, 36, a baby shower over the weekend.
While Brody’s other siblings were present for the celebration, both Kylie, 25, and Kendall, 27, were noticeably absent.
The post’s author reposted photos from the Jenner baby shower that featured Brody and his brother Brandon with half-siblings Burton Jenner and Cassandra Marino.
The author explained: “The Jenner half siblings together for Brody and his now fiancée baby shower.”
They continued: “Caitlyn was there too. Kendall and Kylie are so disconnected from that side of the family.”
In the comment thread, fans debated whether or not the Kardashian stars’ absence is a product of negligence on their part or if the sibling age gap, parenting, or other factors were to blame.
One person wrote: “It’s not unheard of for siblings that grew up in different houses with a decent age gap to not be close.”
They added: “Caitlyn didn’t do a good job making sure the kids were close now they’re older and don’t have a relationship.”
Another commenter asked: “Do you think Kylie and Kendall are even invited?”
“I can’t even imagine Kylie showing up to something like this because this side of the fam seems so low-key and ‘normal,'” replied another.
While a fourth person stated: “At the beginning of the show Brody was the star in the family because he’d been on The Hills! So they had him around more. It wasn’t necessarily true to life”
Other fans speculated that Kylie and Kendall skipped out on the baby shower due to the sisters’ current relationship with their father.
One person commented: “I have a feeling Kendall and Kylie want nothing to do with Caitlyn now—given that they are not very close to her like they used to be.”
A second fan mentioned: “Kendall posted Cait for Father’s Day.”
“Just because you post about somebody doesn’t mean you’re close to them anymore. It’s the bare minimum you can do,” responded a third.
While a fourth commenter wrote: “Posting someone for Father’s Day is the bare minimum,” before adding, “They are not that close to her in general especially in comparison to how close they used to be.”
BRODY’S PROPOSAL
Brody proposed to his pregnant girlfriend Tia Blanco, 26, at their baby shower on Sunday.
The Hills star got down on one knee to professional surfer Tia in front of all their friends and family.
Brody shared a video of him and Tia – who are expecting a baby girl -standing in front of their loved ones.
He told them: “I just want to thank you all for coming here. Really appreciate it. Love you all.”
As Tia went to walk away, Brody added: “Wait, one more thing, one more thing!”
He then got down on one knee and pulled a diamond ring out of his pocket.
Brody proposed to Tia and the couple kissed and hugged as the shocked guests cheered and clapped.
The MTV star shared the clip on Instagram on Sunday and wrote: “Can’t wait to love you forever.”
Brody’s mom Linda commented: “The perfect culmination to a beautiful romance, and an incredibly wonderful day. Congratulations. I love you both so very much!”
Dad Caitlyn, 73, shared the video of the big moment to her Instagram Stories and captioned it: “Major!!!!”
While Brody’s gesture was deemed to be a surprise proposal, some fans questioned how shocked his girlfriend Tia was.
One asked, “Did she know prior? She had No reaction,” and another agreed: “Yea she didn’t look surprised at all.”
A third posted: “Weakest proposal but I love this couple!”
The engagement comes five months after the couple announced that Tia is pregnant.
PREGNANCY ANNOUNCEMENT
In 2021, rumors swirled that he was dating Audrina Patridge but in June 2022, The Hills: New Beginnings star confirmed he was in a relationship with surfer Tia Blanco.
Tia is a Puerto Rican-born Filipino-American professional surfer who hails from San Clemente, California.
She first rose to fame after winning the first-place gold medal at the International Surfing Association (ISA) Open Women’s World Surfing Championship in 2015.
For the most part, the pair have kept their relationship private, but on January 1, 2023, they took to social media to announce that they are expecting their first child.
“To start off this new year, we’d like to take this opportunity to wish all of our friends, family, and followers health, happiness & an abundance of love,” the couple captioned their announcement, via TMZ.
“We truly appreciate & love you all. We are excited to share with you the blessing of a new life in the new year…Our little angel is on their way.”
