The mystery behind Kendall and Kylie Jenner’s absence from their half-brother Brody Jenner’s wedding has finally been explained—and it appears family tensions were at the heart of the decision. According to an insider who spoke with The U.S. Sun on Tuesday, the wedding was “not a priority” for the Jenner sisters due to lingering tensions between their mother, Kris Jenner, and Brody’s mother, Linda Thompson.
The strained relationship between the two women has reportedly cast a long shadow over family dynamics for decades. “Brody personally invited Kylie and Kendall more than a few months back,” the insider revealed. However, the sisters ultimately chose not to attend.
“The official line is that both girls already had other commitments, so unfortunately, they were not able to attend,” the source added, referencing the explanation shared publicly by the Jenner camp.
But behind the scenes, the insider claimed, the decades-long feud between Kris and Linda has played a larger role. “Linda and Kris have not gotten along in decades,” the source explained, suggesting that their unresolved issues contributed to a broader family divide.
This tension has also reportedly shaped Brody’s feelings toward Kris Jenner. “He’s never gotten over it, and so when the siblings were trying to build relationships, Brody would often fall back into this narrative of blaming Kris for everything,” the source added.
While the sisters’ decision sparked speculation, TMZ previously reported that Kendall and Kylie declined the invitation in part to avoid shifting attention away from Brody and his now-wife, Tia Blanco. The two feared their high-profile presence could overshadow the couple’s special day.
Despite the missed milestone, sources insist there is no animosity between the siblings themselves. “Brody and his half-sisters have nothing but love for each other,” the insider confirmed.
Brody Jenner, the son of Caitlyn Jenner and Linda Thompson, tied the knot with professional surfer Tia Blanco in an intimate ceremony. Though the event was a significant moment for the newlyweds, it was noticeably missing some of Brody’s most famous family members.
The Kardashians and Jenners are no strangers to public family drama, but this latest revelation highlights how long-standing personal conflicts—particularly between the family matriarchs—continue to influence relationships across generations.
As of now, neither Kendall, Kylie, nor Brody has issued direct statements about the wedding absence, but the behind-the-scenes dynamics offer a telling glimpse into the ongoing complexities within the extended Jenner clan.
