Kendall Jenner, the renowned model and reality television star, has announced plans to step away from the entertainment industry to pursue a career in home design. At 29 years old, Jenner gained fame as a child on the reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians and has since built a successful modelling career. Now, she expresses a desire for a more tranquil lifestyle, stating that she prefers “the simple life.”
In an interview with Vogue, Jenner made her intentions clear: “I swear to God, I’m going to stop everything and just design homes. I’m not kidding.” She described her enjoyment of a casual lifestyle, stating, “I like getting up every morning and throwing on a bathing suit or sweatpants and no make-up and just being free with my day.” This shift indicates a significant change in her personal and professional priorities.
New Beginnings in Home Design
Kendall is currently in the process of building a new home outside of Los Angeles. During a joint interview with fellow model Gigi Hadid, Hadid praised Jenner, saying she is “one of the only people that I would let design a house for me.” This endorsement highlights the confidence Hadid has in Jenner’s design abilities.
Despite her upbringing in the limelight, Jenner reflects on her childhood with a sense of normalcy. She made her first appearance on Keeping Up With The Kardashians in 2007. In a recent podcast appearance on Emma Chamberlain’s Anything Goes, she shared insights into her upbringing, noting that she and her sister, Kylie Jenner, were largely shielded from the relentless attention of the media during their formative years.
“We went to school. We went to school as long as we could,” Jenner explained. She transitioned to home schooling for her 11th and 12th grades while maintaining friendships outside of the show. “Even though we had a TV show at home, we were going to regular school all day,” she added. This balance allowed her to experience a sense of normalcy, despite the fame surrounding her family.
Gratitude for a Supportive Environment
Jenner expressed gratitude for the stability and love she received from her family. “Overall I am really grateful because I think it could have been a lot worse,” she remarked. “Kylie and I, the one thing we had was a lot of stability, a lot of love and a really great support system and really great friends.” This strong foundation enabled the sisters to maintain a semblance of normal life amid the chaos of celebrity.
As she prepares for this new chapter, Kendall Jenner’s decision to leave modelling and television behind marks a significant personal evolution. Her commitment to pursuing her passion for home design reflects a desire for greater fulfillment and simplicity in her life. As she embarks on this journey, fans and followers will undoubtedly be curious to see how her vision for homes unfolds in the future.
