Childhood and family

The future star of the famous dynasty was born on April 18, 1979, in Los Angeles and is the eldest child of the Kardashian family. The girl's mother Kris Jenner (full name Kristen Mary, née Houghton), who has Scottish, Irish, German, and Dutch roots, is an entrepreneur and a television producer. Her husband at that time was a lawyer and doctor of jurisprudence Robert Kardashian, an Armenian by birth. A year later their family welcomed daughter Kimberly Noel (now known as Kim Kardashian), Khloé Alexandra in 1984, son Robert Jr. Arthur in 1987.

Kris and Robert broke up when their oldest daughter was 11 years old. She stayed with her mother but spent a lot of time at her father's. When he was defending his friend, actor and former NFL star O. Jay Simpson, who was accused of a double murder (his wife and her lover) in 1994, his ex-wife decided to move from Beverly Hills to Hidden Hills for safety reasons. A year later the football star was acquitted during the high-profile trial and avoided the death penalty. In 2003 the father of the Kardashian sisters died from cancer at the age of 59 years.

Kris's second spouse was a decathlete, Olympic champion, and TV star William Bruce Jenner. In the new marriage that began in 1991 she had two more daughters: Kendall Nicole and Kylie Kristen. In addition to her sisters by mother, Kourtney also had three stepbrothers and a stepsister: Brandon, Brody (their mother was Linda Thompson, not only her stepfather's but also Elvis Presley's ex-girlfriend), Burton and Casey (their mom is Christy Scott). After divorcing Kris in 2015 Bruce Jenner transitioned, changing her name to Caitlyn, and was even named Woman of the Year by Glamour magazine.

In 1997 Kourtney graduated from Marymount Private Catholic High School for Girls in the Bel Air district of Los Angeles and continued her studies at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. Two years later she became a student at the Faculty of Arts and Mass Media at the University of Arizona at Tucson, graduating in 2002 with a bachelor's degree in Theatre Arts and a minor in Spanish. Her classmates were famous professional footballer and trainer Luke Walton and the adopted daughter of pop singer Lionel Richie, actress, and model Nicole Richie.

Business, TV and high society life

After college, she dove into business and teamed up with her mother to open children's clothing stores in Los Angeles and New York, branding them as Smooch and featuring products from the Crib Rock Couture line. At 26, she made her TV debut on the E! reality show Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive, a celebrity fundraising project. A year later, she partnered with sisters Kim and Khloé to launch DASH, a chain of women's clothing and accessories boutiques.

In October 2007, the hit reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians premiered, eventually becoming one of the longest-running series in the genre. The show featured the entire Kardashian-Jenner family: the kids and their parents, Kris and Caitlyn Jenner (formerly Bruce). The sisters' ex-husbands, friends, Brandon's wife Leah, and Kim's then-husband rapper Kanye West also made appearances

Kourtney Kardashian's personal life

At a party in Mexico in 2006, the reality star met businessman Scott Disick. They soon began dating and eventually moved in together. All of America watched their relationship unfold on Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

In 2009 the couple broke up due to Scott's repeated infidelity and struggles with alcohol. However, when Kourtney discovered she was pregnant, they reconciled for the baby's sake. Their happiness was short-lived, and in 2015, despite having three children together - daughter Penelope (born 2012) and sons Mason and Reign - they split for good. According to insiders, Scott still hopes to win Kourtney back.

Interestingly, Kourtney's sons were born on the same day - December 14, with a difference of 5 years (in 2009 and in 2014).

Later, the 38-year-old mother of three was romantically linked to 24-year-old French model and professional boxer Younes Bendjima for about two years. In 2018 they called it quits. She allegedly ended things due to his infidelity, while he reportedly disapproved of her habit of posting revealing photos on social media.

That same year, the brunette beauty was spotted with a new boyfriend, 20-year-old stylist and designer Luka Sabbat. They were together for about a month.

Kourtney may be pretty, but it would be better if she promoted naturalness. Because many young girls also want an artificial ass, lips, breasts and so on!
