Kylie Jenner and Khloe Kardashian give intimate glimpse of grandma MJ's lavish 91st birthday
The beauty mogul, 27, joined both the Good American founder, 41, and mom Kris Jenner at the celebrity hotspot The Ivy in LA over the weekend.
Kylie shared the carousel of images on Sunday, with one showing the reality star posing next to MJ as they sat next to each other at a table.
The mom-of-two donned a black and white-checkered minidress that clung to her toned frame while her long dark locks were parted in the middle and flowed down past her shoulders in elegant waves.
Her grandmother — Kris' mother — dressed to impress in a stylish blazer with a colorful floral pattern as well as matching trousers.
Kylie and her older sibling Khloe also paused for a few memorable photos together during the lighthearted afternoon.
In a few pictures, the pair could be seen flashing cheerful smiles and also fell into an embrace as they shared a laugh.
Khloe also showed off her own personal sense of style in a fitted black dress with white floral details on the material.
She additionally slipped into a pair of black pumps and allowed her hair to cascade down in light waves.
Kylie better showcased her ensemble for the floral-themed party while taking a quick mirror selfie in the bathroom.
The star also included a short clip as MJ was sung happy birthday by her loved ones and other guests in attendance.
Kris could be seen standing next to her mother who was next to a circular cake that was topped with floral decorations as well as a gold '91' candle.
The Kylie Cosmetics founder offered her followers a closer look at the tasty cake that was also topped with a sugary, pastel yellow frosting.
The beauty — who is currently dating actor Timothée Chalamet — was accompanied by her mini-me daughter Stormi, seven, who also flaunted her own fashionable look for the camera.

Lastly, she also shared a picture to show the table setting which included specially crafted menus and clear vases filled with multi-colored roses.
The TV personality posed for another image as she sat at the table with her hand placed on the menu while sipping on a refreshing drink.
In the caption of the post, Kylie wrote: '91 years of MJ ♥️ the queeeeen we love you.'
Khloe - who was also joined by her daughter True, seven - shared an assortment of lighthearted selfies to her own Instagram page on Saturday.
She made funny faces towards the camera while sitting next to her daughter as they headed towards the party inside a vehicle.
True - whom she shares with ex Tristan Thompson as well as son Tatum, two - showed off a popular Labubu toy in her hand. She captioned the post by sweetly calling True her 'best friend.'

Khloe - who was also joined by her daughter True, seven - also shared an assortment of lighthearted selfies to her own Instagram page on Saturday
'Happy birthday to my mommy MJ!!!' the momager began. 'You are truly the heart and soul of our family... the most incredible mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother we could ever dream of.
'Your strength, elegance, wit, and wisdom have shaped who we all are, and I am endlessly grateful for every lesson, every laugh, and every memory we've shared together.'
Kris continued, 'You've taught me what it means to be a strong woman, to work hard, to be kind, generous, to lead with love, and to never lose your sense of humor no matter what life throws your way.
'Thank you for being my rock all of these years, through every moment. You have always been my biggest cheerleader and confidant…'
In conclusion, she added, 'You are forever my role model and I'm blessed beyond words to call you my mommy. We are ALL so blessed to be loved by you. I love you!!!'
One day earlier on Saturday, some of the Kardashian/Jenner clan were seen arriving to The Ivy shortly before the birthday bash began.
Kylie strolled hand-in-hand with Stormi while carrying a stylish black purse over her shoulder and sported a pair of black shades.
Khloe was soon also spotted arriving to the eatery alongside her daughter True who sported a pink dress that had 'Dior' printed on the front.
'Happy birthday to my mommy MJ!!!' the momager began. 'You are truly the heart and soul of our family... the most incredible mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother we could ever dream of,' she wrote
Later in the day, Kourtney was also seen at the venue while holding her baby boy Rocky - whom she shares with husband and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker.
She wore a cream-colored maxi dress that had floral-patterned embroidery to fit the theme of the party and layered the look with a black leather jacket for an edgy flare.
During an episode of The Kardashians which aired back in March, Kris emotionally reflected on her mom MJ getting older.
'I know my mom struggles with so much right now because she is 90 and she's frail,' she expressed during a confessional.
Kris's sister Karen Houghton passed away this year on March 18 at the age of 65 - with the cause of death revealed to be both cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac arrhythmia, per TMZ
'Ever since my sister passed away, she's been super sad, like we all have, and I know that I need to be there for her.'
Kris's sister Karen Houghton passed away this year on March 18 at the age of 65 - with the cause of death revealed to be both cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac arrhythmia, per TMZ. Type 2 diabetes had also been listed as an underlying cause.
The star later added, 'You never know when you're going to get a call like this, and you never know when somebody's going to need you.
'So I have to compartmentalize my emotions and my feelings and then pop over to my mom's and see what's happening.'

Celebrity super yacht holiday you could win for just £10 but you have to enter today
The rich and famous are proving that the ultimate way to holiday in 2025 is on a yacht—Jeff Bezos, Kylie Jenner, and Rihanna are all doing it, and it turns out you could do it too As we watched the stars arrive at the Cannes Film Festival and enjoy the Monaco Grand Prix from their eye-wateringly expensive superyachts, it was hard not to envy the luxury lifestyle. Although, this out-of-pocket raffle could just be the answer to the ultimate VIP treatment—the only catch is, there's just one day left to enter the first prize draw. Superyacht season is upon us, and celebrities from Rihanna to Kylie Jenner, Maya Jama, and, of course, billionaire businessman Jeff Bezos have all been gallivanting around Europe aboard their luxury boats. According to Forbes, Rihanna's sea escape for Cannes this year alone was breaking the bank at €350,000 per week, while Kylie Jenner's holiday was rumoured to cost half a million dollars. It proves this is a holiday made for the elite, and the elite only. Except, if luck is on your side, there's a chance you could live this luxury life for a week without the hefty price tag. A new charity raffle, following in the footsteps of the likes of Omaze, is now offering everyday people the chance to travel like money is no object but Time is running out for the first raffle, with final entries due by July 31. Anchord is hosting a raffle every single month that sees a lucky winner and five friends board an all-inclusive yacht for a week at sea, and tickets are a far cry away from the millions celebs are forking out. With online entries starting at just £10, this unique raffle has opened up a whole new world for the wanderlust. The experience includes flights, a week of sailing on the yacht, and a 24-hour crew waiting on your every beck and call. Not to mention, top-tier dining from a private chef and water activities, so you can get as adventurous as you like on the water. As the months go on, its winners will set sail in tune with the celebrity calendar, from the yachting season in the Mediterranean to the Caribbean for those dreamy winter escapes. This month's grand prize destination is Greece, specifically Athens, where turquoise waters and sun-drenched coastlines await. When you buy a ticket, you have the choice to buy a single entry for a mere £10, make a bulk purchase, or even get a subscription, opting you in for automatic entries each month. Offline, for future entries, there's also a free postal entry option available, with each entry helping to support Anchord's chosen charity. Through regular donations the Yacht raffle aims to support Naomi House & Jacksplace, a children's charity whose work supports life-limiting and threatening illnesses in both children and young adults. Anchord's website states: "Your entry helps guarantee a generous donation to Naomi House Hospice, where nursing and medical staff provide individualised nursing care that helps to enhance short lives and allows local families to make the most of their precious time with their children." Instead of scrolling Instagram with envy at the Kardashian superyacht vacations, it might bode well to bin off this week's lottery tickets and swap them for a raffle ticket like no other. For more information and to make your last-minute entry, visit or keep your eyes peeled for next month's surprise draw.

Sir Michael Palin, 82, confesses he is preparing for the end of his life and has finalised his will following the devastating death of his wife Helen, 80
Sir Michael Palin has revealed he is preparing for the end of his life after the death of his beloved wife left him contemplating his own mortality. The Monty Python star, 82, was married to Helen Gibbins for 57 years before her death two years ago from chronic kidney disease. Her passing has, he now says, helped the whole family to speak more openly about death and he has now finalised his will and handed over his passwords. Speaking on the On the Marie Curie Couch podcast he admitted: 'I do think about death and the family are rather wonderful about it: "Have you made a will? Can I be in your will?" 'I've made my will and all that. My family, my children, know where to find what they need to find should I die.' The actor, writer and broadcaster has three children with Helen, Thomas, 56, William, 54, and Rachel, 50 , and said he's passed on all his passwords to them 'in case I get run over by a bus. 'However fit you are, anything might happen. But I don't dwell on mortality. I dwell on life.' Michael and Helen met when they were just 16 on a summer holiday in Suffolk, and he said her death made him more aware of his own physical state. 'I'm 82 now, which is longer than any Palin male has lived for 200 years,' he said. 'I keep fit and I'm working, fortunately, and doing some quite difficult stuff, filming and all that. 'I kid myself that I'm going to be alright, and yet I know that I won't because you feel tired at certain times. You're slightly unsteady as you get out of bed, and you think, what's happening? Well, the old car's getting a bit rusty.' Michael underwent open heart surgery in 2019 to repair a valve, an experience that made him more conscious of the body's frailty. 'That saved my life, really,' he said. 'And so I've been through that, which I think is quite important - to know that your body is vulnerable. And the older you get, the more vulnerable it is.' He added that Helen's death had prompted the entire family to confront death more directly. 'I feel really glad that all my grandchildren were able to participate and see and understand right up to the last minute that this is what happens: you get ill, and eventually your body just stops working, and that's it. 'And they know about that, and they can ask any questions. I really encouraged this afterwards - if they wanted to know about her illness or about grandpa: "When will you die?" That sort of thing. And that's fine. Really good. I really enjoy having those conversations.' Michael added that following Helen's death, he struggled to imagine how he would survive. 'There was a time when I didn't think it was going to get better,' he said. 'I thought, gosh, it's just going to be poignant days. I'm going to break into tears every now and then. 'It does get better and it does adjust. And after two years now I feel I could think of Helen. I'm surrounded by her anyway. I've got photos. 'I haven't got rid of anything to do with her. The family embody what she was to them and that's all made it much, much easier. 'But… even in the most careful circumstances where you say, "I'm going to deal with that, I know what to do" - you don't at all. 'You absolutely don't know. It's absolutely a sucker punch. You just don't know what's going to happen or how you're going to feel or how you're going to react.' Asked how he'd like to be remembered, Michael replied: 'I don't want to feel that I've been exalted on any sort of pinnacle in any shape or form. 'Helen was very strong on that… She was obviously pleased that I had been successful at certain things, but didn't go on about it a lot. She was far more interested in whether I was going to be able to mend the tyre on the car.' He recalled one moment, while filming in Tibet, when he managed to reach her by phone from 12,000 feet up. 'I remember ringing up from the middle of the Tibetan Plateau. 'And I'm saying, "Guess where I am?" She says, "Well, I don't care where you are. Where's the plumber's number? The bathroom boiler's gone and it's making a terrible hissing noise." 'By the end of the phone call, I hadn't told her anything about the magnificent landscape… So there we are. That's sort of what life is, and I think that's what death is as well.'

'Her acid tongue is usually in her cheek': How Gwyneth Paltrow became a divisive, defiant icon
Her larger-than-life sensibility and scale of ambition have led to both admiration and criticism – and she seems to thrive in her own divisiveness. The author of new book Gwyneth: The Biography, tells the BBC what fascinates her about the star. Gwyneth Paltrow is hardly an enigma. From crystal "healing" eggs to vagina-themed candles, we might feel that we know the actress and businesswoman intimately. And yet, we really only know her through headlines – most recently, she starred in US tech firm Astronomer's "clever PR move". For more than 30 years, through stories about her boyfriends, her "conscious uncoupling" from Chris Martin, crying at the Oscars, narrowly escaping Harvey Weinstein's advances, and in the very public 2023 ski-crash trial, the public has come to both love and loathe her. Now a new book, Gwyneth: The Biography, explores Paltrow's life and divisive public persona. The woman who admits she "can't possibly pretend to be someone who makes $25,000 a year", and laments that an accident on the slopes she was (wrongly) blamed for caused her to lose a day of skiing, seems to thrive in her own divisiveness. Her acid tongue is usually in her cheek, we have to imagine, when she says these things. It's as if she's winking and nudging in an "if you know, you know" fashion. "Gwyneth has, to her extraordinary credit, found a way to be even more annoying," the Guardian wrote upon the launch of Goop in 2008. Paltrow's wellness empire catapulted her into a whole new stratosphere of celebrity. And experts in health have been scathing about some of the claims made by Goop and Paltrow. In January 2020, NHS chief Simon Stevens claimed that the Goop brand championed the views of "quacks, charlatans and cranks". His comments followed the Netflix airing of The Goop Lab, a behind-the-scenes view of Paltrow's business. In an interview Paltrow brushed off criticism with a blithe side swipe at naysayers. "I will never understand the level of fascination and projection. But we don't want to not change the conversation just to please everybody," she said, following up with the assertion that despite a lack of scientific basis for Goop products, unqualified health measures had been around for "thousands of years". And yet, Paltrow is fully aware of her saleability. Last week, following the drama in which a couple at a Coldplay concert – later revealed to be colleagues from AI company Astronomer – dived to get out of view of the camera, Paltrow was recruited to front a PR campaign for the organisation. SmartCompany labelled it "an iconic PR turnaround". In her clever, deadpan style (which she demonstrated in the ski court trial), Paltrow nails the butter-wouldn't-melt persona the ad calls for. Larger than life In the new book by journalist and author Amy Odell, Paltrow is described as "one of the most resented celebrities in the world". While Gwyneth herself didn't participate in the book, Odell interviewed more than 220 friends, colleagues and industry insiders to create a narrative of how this waifish blonde actress morphed from Brad Pitt's girlfriend to a single, unmistakable name. It follows Odell's last book, Anna: The Biography, which was published in 2022, about Vogue fashion doyenne Anna Wintour. There are parallels between the two women's lives and personas that are undeniable, both are ambitious, larger-than-life figures, and it's easy to see why Odell was transfixed by them. The scale of ambition displayed by both of these women is something that interested the author. "I think ambition is a great thing, and that's a trait I admire greatly in both of them," Odell tells the BBC. "Women's ambition is not always viewed positively, and I wondered if that's why Gwyneth downplayed her ambition early in her career," says Odell. "I also am interested in people who have had cultural impact, and ambition probably helps explain why both were able to accomplish things that truly did impact culture." And there's no denying the scale of Paltrow's goals, says the author. "With Gwyneth, we see her ambition in the breadth of Goop – she wanted Goop to do everything, and to execute it all perfectly. That's how Goop ended up as a newsletter, a publishing imprint, a live events business, a beauty line, a fashion line, and more." Paltrow may have been portrayed as an ice queen, however, her friends refute this. On an episode of Behind the Velvet Rope with David Yontef, Paltrow's friend Shaman Durek claimed the ice queen label was "all lies". He said, "She will give you the shirt off her back. She doesn't get angry. It takes her a lot to get angry. And even when she gets angry, she feels sad about being angry because she doesn't want to be angry." He added, "Gwyneth is the most loving person." She has also been underestimated. For all her acting talent, Paltrow's love life – and the famous men she has often been attached to – has inspired sensationalist tabloid speculation. Even leading up to the publication of this biography, tabloid magazines were hungrily republishing excerpts purely focused on former partners Brad Pitt, Ben Affleck and Chris Martin. Like father, like daughter? Some describe Paltrow as a "nepo baby". Her father, Bruce Paltrow, was an established producer (Hill Street Blues) and her mother Blythe Danner was, and is, a noted actress (in 2000's Meet the Parents, among many other films). She was attending theatres with her mother from infancy, but she worked for her gigs: auditioning, rehearsing and spending hours on set, determined to get the take. When she won an Oscar for Shakespeare in Love in 1999 at the age of 26, her teary acceptance speech made her the butt of relentless jokes. In the same year, The Guardian labelled her "Worst Actress" in its list of "Worst Winner's Speech Awards". In 2023, Paltrow told Variety that the "British press was so horrible to me". One of the focal points of Odell's book is the close father-daughter relationship between Bruce and Gwyneth. It was Paltrow's father, the book suggests, who engendered the sense of heightened privilege and lofty expectations his daughter became accustomed to from childhood. When working on films, Bruce would fly first class with Gwyneth and her brother, Jake, even when, it is claimed, their mother Blythe was flying economy. Odell's book recounts the time Gwyneth boarded a plane with her mother and said, "You mean instead of flying first class, we're flying no class?" "It's impossible to understand someone, as a biographer, if you don't take the time to research where a subject came from, and how their parents impacted them," Odell tells the BBC. "I always make a big effort to interview people who knew a subject's parents, and was fortunate to gain great insight into Gwyneth through those interviews. Gwyneth is a fascinating mix of both of her parents – she has her mother's extraordinary acting talent and her dad's polarising personality and excellent aesthetic taste."

Losing your father is a seismic event, says Odell. "Gwyneth lost Bruce when she was 30 years old. I lost my dad suddenly, too, when I was 27," she tells the BBC. "It was a huge, inexplicable tragedy for which I desperately wanted answers where there were none. Gwyneth went looking for answers after her dad was diagnosed with throat cancer – so I can understand the instinct to do that in a very personal way. I think Gwyneth found answers in wellness, and later started sharing her findings with the public through Goop, whether they were rooted in science or not." So, while attention on Paltrow has often centred on her famous partners, or her success attributed to her father's industry networking, to have built Goop into a multimillion-dollar lifestyle empire is to her credit. And despite the accusations of quackery, the fact that she has been derided for it perhaps tells us more about society's attitude to successful women than anything else. Readers will likely flock to Gwyneth: The Biography in search of gossip and insights into the charmed life of celebrities. What they'll get, in addition, is a reminder that ice queen Gwyneth is just as complicated and curious as we are. Soon after turning 50, Gwyneth said, "As a woman, you turn 50, and maybe we all give ourselves permission to be exactly who we are. And we stop trying to be what other people are expecting us to be, and you kind of exhale into this other thing." Ultimately, love her or hate her, Gwyneth is always going to exist in another sphere to 99.9% of us – and whatever we expect her to be, she will probably confound those expectations.
