Kendall Jenner received a heartfelt Instagram tribute from her mother, Kris, packed with childhood throwbacks and glamorous shots on her 30th birthday.
On Monday morning, the momager, 69, praised her daughter’s ‘quiet strength’ and ‘beautiful confidence’ in an emotional caption.
‘Kenny, from the second you came into this world you stole my heart… You move through life with such grace and independence, and you have accomplished so much, yet you remain humble, kind, and grounded… I am just so endlessly proud to be your mom. Happy birthday my angel girl @kendalljenner,’ she captioned her post.
In her slideshow, Kris included a wide range of memories, from Kendall as a baby and horse-loving kid to her years as a cheerleader with sister Kylie.
Other pictures included her and Kylie wearing matching Burberry dresses and pajamas.
One standout snap showed Kendall dressed as Wonder Woman for Halloween in 2023, which famously earned Lynda Carter’s seal of approval.

The tribute also included a number of Kendall’s career highlights from her debut at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show to one of her most iconic Met Gala looks of all time.
Kendall, who has often described herself as the most private member of the Kardashian-Jenner family, has built a career as one of the world’s most in-demand models while also expanding into business with her tequila brand, 818.
Kris ended her message by celebrating the bond they share and Kendall’s role within the family, calling her ‘the best auntie’ and ‘the most wonderful friend.’
The post quickly drew attention from friends, fans, and fellow celebrities, including Hilaria Baldwin and Vanessa Bryant, who liked the post.
Kendall clearly loved the post as she reposted two of the childhood photos on her Instagram Story.
It is unknown, at this time, how she plans on spending her birthday.
In the past, she’s combined her birthday celebration with a Halloween theme, most notably for her 24th (2019), 25th (2020), and 26th (2021) birthdays, all of which occurred around Halloween.
As the only Kardashian sister without children, Kendall Jenner has spoken out about feeling pressured to settle down by her family in the past.

But at 28, she revealed she was still feeling ‘so young’ and enjoying her ‘kidless freedom.’
Meanwhile, her sisters – Kim, Kourtney, Khloé and Kylie – have 13 children between them, ranging from two to 15 years old.
‘There are days when I look at what they have and think, that’s really special. I do like being a little bit removed, but one day I’ll make my way, probably,’ the reality star told Vogue of being in her late twenties.
She continued: ‘When I was young I used to say that by 27 I’d love to have kids. Now I’m past that and I feel like I’m still so young. I’m enjoying my kidless freedom.’

Kendall is the daughter of Kris and Caitlyn, who divorced in 2014 after 22 years of marriage. The following year, Caitlyn publicly came out as a transgender woman.
Last week on The Kardashians, Kendall admitted that her relationship with her father can be complicated.
‘I have to compartmentalize my relationship with my dad,’ Kendall confessed. ‘Even though we have a good relationship, I can get frustrated with her with certain things cause we just have completely different views on things.’
Still, despite their differences, Kendall made it clear that family comes first.
‘But, other than that, I always wanna include her. I know she doesn’t have a lot outside of her family, and I know that she gets lonely … At the end of the day, it’s really nice to have her around.’
