Her older sister Kris, 68, made the announcement to the world and took to Instagram at the time. She released a statement and paid tribute to her sibling.
Jenner wrote: “It is with the heaviest heart and deepest sadness that I share that my sister Karen passed away yesterday unexpectedly. My heart aches for my mom MJ and my niece Natalie and I pray that god guides us all through this difficult time. Karen was beautiful inside and out. She was the sweetest, kindest, the most sensitive and vulnerable and so so funny.”
“She always felt grateful and thankful for her life and treasured her family and friends and especially her beautiful daughter. She holds such a huge part of my heart and I cherish every single memory we have together.”

Houghton’s daughter Natalie wrote in the comments: “I will always love and miss you mom, forever in my heart,” while Kris’ daughter Khloe typed: “I love you mommy.”
