The Kardashians and Jenners have taken the world by storm, collectively rising to super fame after making their reality-show debut on E! with Keeping Up with the Kardashians in 2007. Since then, their family life has remained a constant circus of tabloid headlines, red- carpet appearances, reality shows and branding deals. As revered and polarizing as royalty, the Kardashians have stolen the celebrity spotlight everyone watched as Bruce became Caitlyn, as Kendall and Kylie grew up, as Kim's roller coaster of a love life led to babies North and Saint, as Khloé's marriage crumbled, as Kourtney's toxic relationship flourished and faded, and as matriarch and momager Kris tried to manage it all, reportedly exploiting her children for fame and playing the media like a deck of cards. Even though the family appears to bare every moment on reality television, sceptics and fans alike have speculated about what really goes on behind closed doors.
