About
Kylie Kristen Jenner, born August 10, 1997, has grown from reality-television kid sister into a globe-spanning beauty mogul and one of the most followed people on social media. Viewers first watched her on Keeping Up with the Kardashians; today she steers a growing empire that includes Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Skin and an expanding fragrance and baby-care line. Forbes estimated her fortune at about $710 million in its 2024 list of America’s richest self-made women, a figure built on savvy ecommerce launches, limited-edition “Lip Kit” drops and a headline-grabbing 2019 deal that sold 51 percent of her company to Coty Inc. She still shares family antics on Hulu’s The Kardashians—season 6 premiered in early 2025—and continues to command red-carpet attention, lately alongside actor Timothée Chalamet.
Before Fame
Raised in Calabasas, California, Kylie is the younger daughter of Kris Jenner and Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner (then Bruce). She attended Sierra Canyon School before switching to homeschool so the family’s hit series, launched in 2007 when she was ten, could film more freely. Early gigs included modeling for the Sears “Crush Your Style” campaign, dabbling in YouTube beauty tutorials and co-authoring a young-adult novel with sister Kendall in 2014. Yet what truly set her path was an obsession with makeup; experimenting with over-lined lips became both a teen trend and the blueprint for her first product launch—the 2015 Kylie Lip Kit, funded with $250,000 earned from modeling appearances.
Trivia
- Social-media powerhouse: By May 2025 she had amassed more than 424 million Instagram followers—enough to outnumber the populations of several large countries combined.
- Record breaker: In 2019 a single photo announcing daughter Stormi’s birth briefly held Instagram’s “most-liked post” crown.
- Youngest “self-made” billionaire debate: Forbes named her the youngest self-made billionaire in 2019, then revised the figure months later, sparking a public discussion about valuation and what “self-made” really means.
- Pop-culture cameos: She has appeared in Travis Scott’s “Stop Trying to Be God” video, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s “WAP” cameo lineup, and multiple music-festival stages supporting family and partners.
- Philanthropy: Donations and sales campaigns have aided Smile Train, the Children’s Hospital LA and wildlife-relief organizations, often coordinated through specially themed product drops.
Family Life
Kylie’s tight-knit household features sisters Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, Kendall and brother Rob, plus half-siblings from Caitlyn’s first marriages. She welcomed daughter Stormi Webster on February 1, 2018, and son Aire Webster on February 2, 2022, both with rapper Travis Scott. While she and Scott ended their on-and-off relationship in late 2023, they co-parent amicably and frequently celebrate holidays together. Since spring 2023, Kylie has been romantically linked to Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet; the pair made a stylish official debut at Rome’s David di Donatello Awards on May 7, 2025. Persistent rumors about a possible third pregnancy swirl every few months, but as of May 2025 nothing has been confirmed.

Business-wise, Kylie taps family star-power—joint collections with Kendall sell out in minutes, while collaborations with momager Kris turn Mother’s Day into a cosmetics event. Musically, she’s intertwined with Travis Scott, who named a 2018 song “STARGAZING” after her nickname. Fashion labels from Balmain to Schiaparelli court her for campaigns, and Tom Ford dressed her for that buzz-worthy Italian red carpet alongside Chalamet. On-screen she continues to share personal milestones with Hulu viewers, working closely with executive-producer Kim and director cousin K. The takeaway? Whether launching a blush palette, appearing beside Hollywood’s leading man or joking with Kris over brunch, Kylie remains a cultural barometer whose every move—business, beauty or relationship—sparks conversation far beyond Calabasas.
