Caitlyn Jenner’s Birthday Passes Without Acknowledgment from Kardashian-Jenner Family Amid Estrangement

Caitlyn Jenner celebrated her 75th birthday on Monday, but the milestone appeared to pass without acknowledgment from the Kardashian-Jenner clan. Despite Caitlyn’s close family ties, including daughters Kendall and Kylie Jenner, ex-stepchildren Khloe, Kim, Kourtney, and Rob Kardashian, and ex-wife Kris Jenner, none publicly recognized her birthday on social media. Even Scott Disick, Kourtney’s ex and a longtime honorary family member, did not post a tribute.

The lack of birthday wishes may reflect Caitlyn’s estranged relationship with the family. Her connection with the Kardashians became increasingly strained following her 2013 split from Kris Jenner. Initially, the Kardashians aimed to keep the separation amicable, but a series of tell-all interviews from Caitlyn revealed underlying tensions, told the Mirror US.

Caitlyn’s candid comments about her marriage to Kris have further fractured her relationship with the family. In the docu-series House of Kardashian, Caitlyn made controversial remarks, describing Kim as “calculated” about her fame and laughing off Kris’s role in managing her career. She later issued a statement expressing pride in her children and stepchildren, though it notably omitted direct praise for Kris.

The rift between Caitlyn and the Kardashian-Jenner family began to deepen after her 2015 interview with Diane Sawyer, where she publicly identified as a woman for the first time—a revelation that reportedly surprised Kris and their daughters.

Just months later, Caitlyn introduced herself to the world on the cover of Vanity Fair, marking a significant moment in her journey but also sparking tension with Kris. In that interview, Caitlyn claimed their divorce was “20% gender and 80% the way I was treated,” accusing Kris of “mistreating” her and controlling the family finances during their marriage.

Over the years, these public statements have cast a shadow on Caitlyn’s relationship with the Kardashians. Despite their shared history, the family’s absence from her birthday tributes hints at lingering conflicts and unresolved tensions that have kept them distanced.
