Kim Kardashian recently reunited with her stepbrother Brody Jenner and his family to honor Caitlyn Jenner’s 75th birthday with a warm family gathering in Malibu, California. Held on October 28, the celebration included Brody’s fiancée Tia Blanco and their 15-month-old daughter, Honey. Kim, who shared some heartfelt moments on social media, highlighted her enduring connection with Caitlyn.
A Special Family Gathering
Caitlyn posted photos from the birthday celebration, sharing a heartfelt message about the importance of family: “Family is everything! So many kids and so many of the grandkids, all in one place, at one time.” She continued, expressing her gratitude to her family and friends for their thoughtful gifts and meaningful presence, which she said made the evening even more memorable.
A highlight from the evening was a sweet selfie of Kim and Caitlyn, which Kim also shared on her own Instagram with a touching caption, “Happy 75th Birthday. I love you.” Other family members took part in the festivities, with Kourtney Kardashian posting a picture of Caitlyn’s birthday cake on her Instagram Stories.
Some Notable Absences
Despite the large turnout, a few family members missed the celebration. Kylie Jenner, Caitlyn’s youngest daughter, was notably absent due to a prior commitment at the CFDA Awards in New York City. Caitlyn’s former spouse Kris Jenner—who shares daughters Kylie and Kendall Jenner with Caitlyn—also likely skipped the event. Kris and Caitlyn, who finalized their divorce in 2014, have had a distant relationship in recent years. Caitlyn confirmed this last year, telling ITV’s This Morning that the two “never talk anymore” and that she’s become “much closer to the Jenner side” of her family.
As Caitlyn explained, with a family as large as hers, naturally some connections feel closer than others: “When you have as many kids as I have, you’re closer to some than you are to others.”
A Heartwarming Celebration
Despite the absence of some family members, Caitlyn’s 75th birthday was filled with love, joy, and gratitude. The heartfelt reunion between Kim Kardashian and Brody Jenner was a reminder of their deep family ties. As the Jenner and Kardashian families continue to evolve and grow, their celebrations like this reflect their lasting bonds, showing that family remains a priority even amid busy schedules and complex relationships.
