7 ways Kendall Jenner differs from the Kardashians: unlike sisters Kim, Khloé, Kourtney and Kylie, she’s less drama, more privacy and no rush to have a baby despite pressure from mum Kris

  • Kendall rarely appears on Hulu’s The Kardashians and Blac Chyna left her name out when suing Kris, Kim, Khloé, Kourtney and Kylie, but there was that shocking Pepsi ad in 2017
  • She isn’t in a rush to have kids with her NBA star boyfriend Devin Booker, walks runways for Chanel and Tommy Hilfiger, and is besties with Gigi and Bella Hadid

If it weren’t for the family reality show, most people probably wouldn’t guess that Kendall Jenner was a Kardashian. Besides seemingly preferring distance from Hulu’s new release The Kardashians, Kendall has made a distinguished name for herself in luxury fashion, earning the Forbes title of world’s highest-paid model for two consecutive years in a row, in 2017 and 2018.

She is notoriously private about her life and doesn’t get caught up in the scandals or drama that her sisters are oh so famous for, either. As the daughter of Kris and Caitlyn Jenner (who are now divorced), she’s rarely the subject of headlines with her sisters unless it’s about her red carpet fashion looks … oh, and that controversial Pepsi commercial.

We took a look at what sets Kendall apart from her superstar household.

1. Her naturally good looks

We’re not denying she hasn’t had a glow-up, but compared to her sisters who have had some extreme transformations, Kendall looks relatively the same as she did growing up. She’s blessed with a tall physique, perhaps thanks to her former Olympian parent, and already has striking facial features, which prompts the question – why would you get work done?

In 2017, she was slammed with plastic surgery rumours on her plumper pout, which she strenuously denied. “It’s all so exhausting,” she said, per British media. “As a model, why would I have my face reconstructed? It doesn’t even make sense. It’s crazy because sometimes I feel like people just want me to lose.”

She’s previously criticised her sisters for taking drastic procedures under the knife on Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Plus, like many celebrities, she’s also been caught in the occasional Photoshop mishap.
