Kim’s mother,Kris Jenner, was married to Robert from 1978 to 1991. Along with Kim and Kourtney, 44, the pair also share daughterKhloé, 39, and sonRob Kardashian, 36.
Robert was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in July 2003 and died less than two months later on Sept. 30, 2003. He was a businessman and lawyer known for being onO.J. Simpson’s defense team during the former NFL star’s 1995 trial for the murder ofNicole Brown Simpson.
To honor their father’s memory, Robert’s children opened theRobert G. Kardashian Center for Esophageal Healthin Los Angeles in 2019.
“So proud to announce the Robert G. Kardashian center for esophageal health being launched at UCLA,” Kim wrote on Twitter at the time. “My wish is that other families can have more information and we can also focus on health and prevention.”

“There are times when I could be frustrated and studying really late and have to get up and wonder how he did it, having four kids and must’ve been going through some of the same things that I have gone through,” she said. “So it would have been exciting to talk to him about that, and I know that hewould be so, so proud.”
Kim was also thinking of her dad earlier this month when she posted clips of herselfwatching old videos of Robert.“My dad was a cutie," she wrote in a caption.
