Kim Kardashian names her 'best sister' after only one sibling wishes her on 44th birthday

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kim Kardashian celebrated her 44th birthday following a star-studded weekend in Los Angeles on October 21, Monday.

But it wasn’t her glamorous festivities that made headlines, it was her heartfelt response to sister Khloe Kardashian’s touching birthday tribute, which left many wondering why her other siblings had yet to share their birthday wishes publicly, as reported by Parade.

Kim Kardashian picks her ‘best sister’

Khloe Kardashian took to Instagram to post a series of photos capturing special moments with her sister Kim over the years, from luxurious vacations to family gatherings. Alongside the images, Khloe penned a lengthy and emotional caption, praising Kim as "one of the most spectacular and extraordinary humans" she knows.

Khloe expressed admiration for Kim’s growth, writing, "With every year, you have gotten stronger but also gentler, wiser, braver."

She added, “Kimberly I feel so honored and privileged that I was blessed with you as my sister and best friend,” before signing off, “I love you more than you’ll ever understand.”

In response, Kim wasted no time showing her appreciation in the comments, declaring Khloe the best sister and expressing gratitude for her kind words. “You are the best sister! I’m so grateful to you! Wow this caption. I love you so much!”

What were Kim Kardashian's sisters doing on her birthday?

At the time of Khloe Kardashian’s post, Kim Kardashian’s other sisters, Kourtney, Kendall, and Kylie had yet to publicly wish her a happy birthday. Though Kendall and Kylie were spotted with Kim at the 2024 Academy Museum Gala over the weekend, their social media remained quiet on the subject of Kim's birthday.

Fans speculated that the celebration may have occurred privately, away from the public eye.

Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner, did share her own tribute, posting nostalgic photos of Kim alongside a heartfelt message that praised her daughter for bringing "happiness and joy" to everyone around her.

“Happy Birthday to my beautiful Kimberly!!! You are truly such a light to everyone who meets you,” she said.

Kris went on, “You are such a huge part of my heart, and I cherish every single precious memory we have ever made. You bring me such happiness and joy and I love you beyond any measure my beautiful daughter."
