Kylie Jenner's Exclusive Inner Circle, Explained

Put the phrases "Kylie Jenner" and "best friends" into a sentence and most people who hear it will likely think of Jordyn Woods. But if the beauty mogul's short-lived reality show The Life of Kylie taught us anything before its untimely end, it's that Kylie has a vast network of friends in her tight-knit circle.

Let's break down Kylie's best friends, glam squad members, and friends-of-friends you're likely to see at Kylie's next big party (hopefully not a Handmaid's Tale-themed shindig).

Heather Sanders

Relationship: Friend

Heather Sanders's name started circulating following the Jordyn-Tristan scandal as people began noticing that Kylie started spending a lot more time with her other best friend after the Jordyn fallout.

Kylie and Heather met at Kendall Jenner's 16th birthday celebration, where Tyga (Kylie's ex) was performing. Heather was dating King Trell, Tyga's friend.

Since the Jordyn-Kylie fallout, Anastasia "Stassie" Karanikolaou has also been more of a presence in Kylie's life (and Instagram feed). Earlier this year, Kylie threw Stassie a big birthday party, and the two even got matching tattoos in honor of baby Stormi.

I don’t think you will ever be able to comprehend the amount of Love and Respect that i have for you. Not only are you the most perfect, and beautiful canvas for my hands to create magic on, but you also happen to be the most Loving, Caring, Supportive, Loyal, Honest, and Warm hearted person with the biggest heart ever! I know i’ve mention this in the past, but your level of work ethic is unparalleled!! To see you dedicate so much of your time, energy and heart into Kylie Cosmetics is truly a blessing for me. Not many people get to see The behind the scenes. So let me let you all know why @kyliecosmetics @kyliejenner is really on the of Forbes Magazine. There are not many people who are willing to care as much about what’s being put out there for us to use! @kyliejenner Truly loves makeup! I think that is why we get along so well, we genuinely share the same passion for makeup. For this reason, there is not one product that goes out from @kyliecosmetics that this BOSS herself did not take her time developing and actually loves it. When you truly love something, and i mean really LOVE SOMETHING. When your are Passionate, Dedicated, and completely Invested into whatever it is the you truly love!! Magic happens and success is just bond to be yours. If there is one person I know that connects with everything I mentioned above, Its Kylie. I rarely ever talk so personally with all my followers about anything really. I’ve tried to keep my feelings/my private life separate from work. But I love this girl, she will forever hold a big place in my heart. Thank you for always being there for me, and supporting me! Honesty and Loyalty is Key in holding a good relationship and those are 2 things we dont Lack. Love you Alway!! @kyliejenner ❤️ #kyliejenner #makeupbyariel #dynamicduo

I’ve been sitting here for days trying to find the right words to say, but those words just don’t exist. I’m not looking for sympathy... All I am asking is for you to truly pay attention to what I’m about to say. I made this short film “Can Cowboys Cry”, (a film about learning to find the true meaning of love for yourself) I made it with the intention of surprising my Dad on his birthday, which is today. He loved western films and folk music, I do also because of him. Unfortunately, my dad passed away this week. I’m sitting here heartbroken; a piece of my soul has been ripped out of my chest forever. Fortunately my dad taught me everything I know, though I never knew what real pain was until he was gone, he taught me to always chase happiness no matter how fucking crazy it may be (like music)... he taught me unconditional love is the only thing that exists when you are no longer alive. To love anyone & anything no matter what, that family & friends are the only truths that matter in this life. He taught me to always give & help others because that’s the true purpose of life. I really don’t know what to do from here but to ask you all to tell everyone that means something to you that you love them with all of your heart... and mean it. This life is fucking short and it’s painful but there is beauty in that pain. I’d give everything I have in this world just to see my dads face one more time. I guess life doesn’t always work the way we want it.. I love you Dad so so much. We’re a team forever! You left behind a legacy & I’ll make sure to keep it alive. I lost my bestfriend, someone I love more than this world in this physical life but gained a guardian angel till the next life. Till we meet again. I hope I make you proud. Happy Birthday Pops 🌹 This Is For You. (If you could comment “we’re a team” to show support, it’s something he’d tell my brother & I every single night, I know he’d love that)
