Early Life of Kim Kardashian
Kimberly Noel Kardashian West was born on October 21, 1980, in Los Angeles, California. She is one of Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner‘s four kids.
She has a younger sister named Khloe and a younger brother named Rob. She also has two stepsisters and three stepbrothers. Her stepbrothers are named Burton “Burt,” Brandon, and Brody (Casey and Kendall Jenner).
Kim went to Marymount High School in Los Angeles. It was a Roman Catholic school for girls only. She became a personal shopper and stylist after she finished school. She met Paris Hilton when she was working as a personal shopper, and Paris hired her as her stylist.
Kim’s parents split up in 1991, and her father died of oesophagal cancer in 2003. Her mother married Bruce Jenner, who used to be an Olympian and is now known as Caitlyn. Kim has said that her mother was very involved in her life as a child, which made it hard for her to make decisions on her own. Because of this, she felt like she had to be totally independent when she moved out of the house and went to Pierce College in California at age 18. After two years, she quit becoming a model and an actress.
