Kris Jenner
The Momager May Be Worth More Than You Think…
Kris Jenner is a pop culture icon for many reasons. While you may have watched her meteoric rise to fame on Keeping Up with the Kardashians — which originally debuted on E! — she’s actually been a fascinating figure in the public eye for ages.
As a flight attendant, Jenner first married Robert Kardashian (yes, the famous lawyer from the OJ Simpson trial) in 1978. As you know, Kris and Robert Kardashian had four kids together: Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, and Robert.
The Jenner/Kardashian marriage dissolved partially due to the OJ trial itself. Kris, a close friend of the deceased Nicole Brown Simpson, and Robert, a major contributing factor in securing the defendant OJ Simpson’s freedom.
The pair divorced in March of 1991, and only one month later Kris married none other than Bruce Jenner. With Jenner, the retired Olympian, Kris gave birth to Kendall and Kylie.
With six children and a dream, Kris Jenner approached Ryan Seacrest with a stellar idea: create a reality television show focused on the family, which is constantly filled with drama.
Quickly, Kris Jenner saw that her clan of Kar-Jenners were moneymakers. She swooped in, dubbing herself their “Momager” and swiftly collected 10% from any deal each of her kids signed.
And the world soon knew that the Kardashian family was here to stay. After Kim became an instantaneous, worldclass, viral scandal when her sex tape with rapper Ray-J got leaked, the family became pop culture’s biggest scapegoat.
Suddenly, everyone loved to hate the Kardashians…and they grew even more famous. Kris Jenner built an empire on the world’s obsession with her family, and now they’re key trendsetters, fashion staples, and beacons of pop culture.
So you may be wondering…how much money Kris Jenner has made from all this success?
How Does Kris Jenner Make Her Money?
Yes. As a conglomerate, the Kardashian-Jenner family is worth well over a billion dollars. Thanks to their 20-plus-season TV show, The Kardashians — which streams on Hulu — the family endlessly pushes out fresh content.
Whenever something happens in pop culture with the Kardashian family and it’s curious and unexplained, the following season of The Kardashians will cover it. They keep a constant cycle of interest with their ever-growing clan…and — love them or hate them — they’re always relevant.
Kris Jenner is not only a star of the show, she’s the reason for its conception. She wears the tag of “Executive Producer” for most of her family’s reality productions.
She’s also their Momager. By taking a 10% cut from any endeavor spearheaded by her daughters, she’s well taken care of. For example, in 2018, Kris Jenner made around $17 million from her daughter Kylie alone…and she’s only the second richest Kardashian sister.
If you break down all of the businesses that Kris Jenner has helped launch with her daughters, it’s a long list. Some of the names include Kylie Cosmetics (formerly Kylie Lip Kits), Skims, Good American, 818 Tequila, KKW Beauty, and SKKN by Kim.
Jenner is getting a good payday from her daughters because she’s an avid businesswoman. She owns Jenner Productions, the production company that works on their reality shows, and gets her daughters’ names out there constantly.
She also consistently appears on any spinoff series her daughters starred in. This includes shows like Kourtney And Kim Take Miami, Kourtney and Kim Take New York, and Kourtney & Khloe Take The Hamptons.
Even shows starring Kourtney Kardashian’s ex, Scott Disick, had Executive Producer Kris Jenner tags.
So What Is Kris Jenner’s Net Worth?
Behind her daughters Kim and Kylie, Kris Jenner is the third richest Kar-Jenner. This comes to no one’s surprise, as Kim Kardashian is by far the most famous and lucrative sister.
Kris Jenner’s net worth is an impressive $170 million. This comes from the show, production company, and all her Momager duties.
Whether you like them or not, there’s no denying that the Kar-Jenners are our version of American royalty. They’re one of the richest famous families in American culture right now.
