Watch: Caitlyn Jenner Says She and Kris Jenner "Never" Speak

Kylie Jenner is having trouble keeping up with her many events.

The 27-year-old was noticeably absent from Caitlyn Jenner’s 75th birthday bash on Oct. 28, though many of her siblings did attend.

As it turns out, Kylie was busy attending the 2024 CFDA Awards, supporting designer Haider Ackermann in a stunning black Jean Paul Gautier Haute Couture look featuring black pointed feathers.

However, Kylie’s absence didn’t dampen Caitlyn’s mood, as the former Olympian gushed over all the love and support she received from loved ones on her special day.

“Last night bday dinner in Malibu was so special,” Caitlyn captioned a group pic. “I will post more later only a few people in these pics that were there. Family is everything!”

Caitlyn, who has six kids and nine grandkids, was thrilled that so many attended her birthday bash.

“So many kids and so many of the grandkids, all in one place, at one time,” she wrote. “You all made my birthday evening so special…and your beyond thoughtful and generous gifts made the night all the more fun (WOW!)! I love you all so much.”

And while Kylie and her sister Kendall Jenner were not featured in the photos, their older sister Kim Kardashian—daughter of Kris Jenner and the late Robert Kardashian—attended, posing with her with Caitlyn.

Kim also posted a pic to her own account, writing, “Happy 75th Birthday. I love you.”

Brody Jenner, who is the son of Caitlyn and her ex Linda Thompson, was also in attendance alongside his and fiancée Tia Blanco’s 15-month-old daughter Honey Raye. Sophia Hutchins, Caitlyn's longtime pal and manager, was in attendance, but her ex Kris was not pictured.

As the retired athlete pointed out last year, she and Kris—who finalized their divorce in 2014—"never talk anymore."

"It's sad," Caitlyn told ITV's This Morning, noting that she's "much closer to the Jenner side," which also includes her kids Burt Jenner and Cassandra "Casey" Marino with ex Chrystie Scott, as well as son Brandon Jenner with ex Linda. 

"When you have as many kids as I have, you're closer to some than you are to others," she explained. "And it's kind of that way through there, through that side of the family."
