In life, there is one truth that is absolute — all things, good or bad, must come to an end. This is the reality for Keeping Up With The Kardashians (KUWTK), one of the longest-running reality TV shows.
KUWTK show has come to an end
After 14 years of culture-shifting moments, matriarch of the Kardashian clan Kris Jenner has pulled the plug on further productions of the series after 20 seasons.
In a statement, the family thanked executive producer Ryan Seacrest and E! for documenting their lives for more than a decade.
“We are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years—through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children. We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way,” the statement read.
Here’s what each Kardashian had to say
The news came as a shocker to many and for some of the Kardashian family members, time was needed to process it all. Here’s what Kourtney, Khloe and Kim had to say after the news broke.
Kourtney
“I will gather my thoughts and share them in a bit…”
Khloe
“I am so grateful and thankful to everyone who has supported us and been there through it all. I’m too emotional to fully express myself at the moment. My sappy post will come soon. Change is hard but also needed at times. I love you all. Thank you for the memories!”
Kim
“Without Keeping Up with The Kardashians, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has watched and supported me and my family these past 14 incredible years. This show made us who we are and I will be forever in debt to everyone who played a role in shaping our careers and changing our lives forever.”
So, what now? – Here’s what to expect from KUWTK
The hard part, informing the world about the family exit, is done. Now, it’s back to business until curtain call. Season 19 of KUWTK premieres on E! on Thursday 17 September.
The final season will follow in 2021, the date of which has not yet been revealed. No one knows what’s next for Jenner and her Kardashian clan.
We expect nothing but fireworks in the last two seasons and we’ll be tuned in for it all.
