Kylie Jenner memorialized her grandmother Mary Jo "MJ" Campbell in a special way, following her death at age 91. The 28-year-old entrepreneur took to Instagram Stories on Saturday to share throwback photos of the matriarch, which were projected onto a large screen.
Among the images were snapshots of a young Kylie alongside her older sister Kendall Jenner. Jenner, 30, in the early 2000s. She also shared a black and white photo of Campbell as a young woman, modeling a halter neck dress with a billowy skirt.
Kylie's mother, Kris Jenner, announced Campbell's passing on Thursday in a social media post. "Today, we said goodbye to my beautiful Mommy MJ," Kris Jenner wrote. "There are no words that could ever capture what she has meant to me or the heartbreak of having to say goodbye."
Kris Jenner described her mother as the "heart of our family" and credited her with teaching them "everything that truly matters – to love your family fiercely, to be kind, to show up for the people you love, and to never take a single moment together for granted." She added, "Our hearts are broken, but we find comfort knowing that love like yours never truly leaves us."
Campbell was a familiar face to fans of the Kardashian-Jenner family, making frequent appearances on their reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians. The family was seen celebrating her birthday at The Ivy restaurant in Los Angeles one year prior.
Kim Kardashian also paid tribute to her grandmother, calling her her "forever twin." She shared multiple photos of them together and wrote, "My sweet Grandma MJ, my best friend, my gossip buddy, my forever twin... You taught all of us the importance of family, and those values are something we’ll carry with us forever!" Kim Kardashian recalled Campbell showing her "what it meant to be a hardworking businesswoman" and gifting her first job at her store in San Diego, imparting lessons on work ethic, strength, and confidence. Kim Kardashian added that her grandmother "always believed in me, championed me, and was my safe place," and acknowledged her role as the "matriarch of our family."
