All About Kris Jenner Kris Jenner is the matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner family, who rose to fame with her six children after starring on the E! reality series Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Here's what Kris has been up to: Kris was first married to the late Robert Kardashian, famously known as O.J. Simpson's defense attorney in his 1995 murder trial. They shared four children: daughters, Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe, and a son, Robert The former couple were married from 1978 until 1991. Following their divorce, Kris tied the knot with former Olympian, Bruce Jenner, who also appeared on KUWTK. The pair shared two daughters, Kendall and Kylie. They split in 2015, around the time that Bruce transitioned and changed her name to Caitlyn. Kris met her current boyfriend, Corey Gamble, in August 2014, and they have been together ever since. Kris manages her daughters' widely-successful careers and they've continued their reality TV run with The Kardashians on Hulu, shortly after KUWTK ended. The home would be familiar to Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans, as it was a staple of filming the reality show for over 11 years. According to an insider, the house 'hasn't had any good enough offers.' 'People have complained it's way overpriced for what it is. There has also been a lot of concern over wildfire danger and the lack of insurance available for that. 'The home is gorgeous, everyone agrees on that. But in order to get someone to bite, they'll need to make the price lower,' the real estate source claimed. 4 Daughter Khloe's ex-partner Tristan Thompson was also included Credit: Getty
