Khloe Kardashian revealed why she and her two little ones are giving the legendary Kardashian Christmas Eve bash a pass this year.

The annual celebration, first hosted by Kris Jenner in 1987, has evolved from an intimate family gathering into a glamorous, star-studded event.

In recent years, Kim and Kourtney Kardashian have taken turns hosting, complete with extravagant themes, luxurious decor, and an A-list guest list.

But this year, Khloe and her kids—True, 6, and Tatum, 2, whom she shares with ex Tristan Thompson—are sidelined by an illness.

‘Tatum was sick the entire weekend, now my TuTu is sick,’ she wrote on Instagram mere hours before the event. ‘For the first time in a long, long time, we will miss Christmas Eve. I feel so terrible for my sick littles.’

She added, ‘No fun, but I pray we are fine for Santa tomorrow!!!’

This comes as Kim recently revealed that this year’s Christmas Eve party would be a more ‘low-key’ affair compared to previous years.

Kim explained that the gathering will be a little more ‘intimate’ this year, due to ‘construction’ work going on.

Speaking to Vogue, Kim shared: ‘Just because we have a lot of construction going on, so we’re doing a really family intimate one that I’m really excited about.’

However, that won’t stop the family getting all glammed up.

Kim added: ‘Still dressing up to the nines, because that’s what we do.’

The Skims founder – who has North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, six, and five-year-old Psalm with ex-husband Kanye West – says the parties are so legendary that even their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren’s friends wish they could attend.

She has vowed to keep the festive family tradition going.

She said: ‘They’re just beginning. Our kids love them and now all their friends want to come. It’s such a fun tradition.’

The Kardashian-Jenner family is famous for throwing an epic, luxurious Christmas Eve party every year that often features a star-studded guest list

One of the only times it was cancelled was amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Kim has started dating again.

The reality star split from comedian Pete Davidson, 31, in late 2022 after nine months together.

Kim was married to Damon Thomas from 2000 until 2004, and Kris Humphries for a period of 72 days in 2011.

The businesswoman was married to rapper Kanye from 2014 until 2022.
