Kris Jenner certainly has changed her looks over the seven decades of her life.
The successful producer of the shows Keeping Up With The Kardashians and The Kardashians has a new face these days thanks to a $100K facelift from a top surgeon.
The mother of Kim Kardashian has been showing off her wrinkle-free visage at various high-profile events.Â
But long before the beauty – who turned 70 on Wednesday – went under the knife, she looked like a sweet girl next door.Â
The reality TV star was a fresh-faced beauty when she attended Clairemont High School in San Diego, California.
The brunette then had a cute look when she worked at her mother’s children’s store Shannon & Company as a young lady.
Next came a gig as a flight attendant for American Airlines in 1976 which taught her how to do her makeup expertly.
What followed was a Beverly Hills lifestyle with Robert Kardashian and then an Olympian as well as a flashy role as a momager to six stunning kids that would parlay into a massive TV career.
Here is a look back at her evolving image.Â

Jenner’s first marriage was in 1978 to prominent lawyer Robert Kardashian, who later became widely known for his early legal representation of O. J. Simpson.
And the role of mom changed her looks too as she settled into an ’80s chic fashion: They had four children: daughters Kourtney (born 1979), Kim (born 1980), Khloé (born 1984), and son Rob (born 1987).Â
Kardashian filed for divorce in 1990 and it was finalized in March 1991 making her single and ready to mingle.
But she was not alone for long.Â
Next she became the glamorous wife of Olympian Bruce Jenner – who later became Caitlyn – in April 1991.
They had two daughters together: Kendall (born 1995) and Kylie (born 1997).
It was all parties with movie stars and producers as she cut her hair short and started to model more outrageous fashion.Â
Kris and her husband needed a better income, however, so she drummed up the family reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians with pal Ryan Seacrest.

That is when the momager started dressing for success in power pantsuits and sexy leopard print dresses.
The series aired from 2007 and ended in 2021.Â
Jenner has discussed plastic surgery on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, including a facelift she had in 2011, which was filmed for the show.Â
She has also openly spoken about other procedures, such as a neck lift, stating that she wants to be transparent to inspire others and to not be perceived as coming back to the show looking drastically different without explanation.Â
She also frequently discusses her use of Botox and other injectables, viewing them as a responsible part of her routine.
But her romance with her husband ended.

They were a blended family in the early 2000sÂ
The Jenners announced their separation in October 2013, and on September 22, 2014, Kris filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.
The divorce became final on March 23, 2015, because of a six-month state legal requirement.
She has been in a relationship with Corey Gamble since around 2014.
In August Jenner described her new facelift as ‘my version’ of ‘ageing gracefully’.
The star revealed that she underwent the cosmetic procedure because she felt it was time for a ‘refresh’ after previously having a facelift 15 years ago.
Kris told Vogue Arabia: ‘I had a facelift about 15 years ago, so it was time for a refresh.
‘I decided to do this facelift because I want to be the best version of myself, and that makes me happy.

‘Just because you get older, it doesn’t mean you should give up on yourself.
‘If you feel comfortable in your skin and you want to age gracefully – meaning you don’t want to do anything – then don’t do anything.
‘But for me, this is ageing gracefully. It’s my version.’
Kris explained how her youngest daughter Kylie Jenner, 28, accompanied her to the procedure while Kim Kardashian, 44, watched ‘on FaceTime’.
She said: ‘Of course my daughter Kylie went with me, while Kim was present at all times on FaceTime.
‘I decided to reveal some details because I feel it can be very inspirational to people who aren’t feeling so great about themselves.
‘Even when I had my hip replacement, we filmed it. I have the conviction that sharing these things can be helpful.’
Kris and her brood – which also includes Kourtney Kardashian, 46, Khloe Kardashian, 41, Rob Kardashian, 38, and Kendall Jenner, 29 – shot to fame through the reality TV series Keeping Up with the Kardashians and she knew that the show wouldn’t be ‘harmful’ for the family.

The matriarch said: ‘To be perfectly honest, I never thought the exposure would be harmful.
‘I just thought this was going to be a great journey. ‘Buckle your seatbelts, we are in for a wild ride, but we are going to have the time of our lives.’
‘I was very optimistic, and I’m also a girl who looks at the glass as half full.’
Kris continued: ‘We were working in our stores in Calabasas, and I thought this would be a great way to give exposure to our business, as it was like an instant focus group.
‘This was an immediate marketing tool and something that could come in handy for other things.
‘I knew this was not a gamble. I also prayed about it.
‘I got on my knees and I said, ‘Please Lord, lead me in the right direction’, and that’s what I still do everyday.
‘I have great spirituality and I’m very confident about my decisions, but I also feel we were led in the right direction.’
