Kourtney Kardashian Barker's recent acknowledgment of her Aunt Karen Houghton's passing comes nearly a month after the tragic event.
Despite her usual discretion regarding extended family matters, the 45-year-old reality star took to her Instagram story to share a precious childhood photo of herself being cradled by 'Auntie Karen,' accompanied by heartfelt emojis of hearts and angel wings.
Aunt Karen, a part-time nurse who battled Type 2 diabetes and bipolar disorder, passed away on March 18 in San Marcos, CA, succumbing to cardiac arrest and sudden cardiac arrhythmia. Coincidentally, the same day witnessed Kourtney's presence at the launch event of Lemme, a vitamin and botanical supplement company she co-founded with publicist Simon Huck in 2022.

In a show of familial solidarity, Kourtney's sister Kim also commemorated Aunt Karen's memory on March 21, sharing cherished snapshots of their shared past and labeling them with affectionate captions. Kim, the 43-year-old co-founder of SKIMS, expressed her love and admiration for Aunt Karen through an Instagram tribute slideshow, underscoring the profound impact she had on their lives.
Karen's significance extended beyond her immediate family circle; Kris Jenner, the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch, penned a touching tribute to her on Instagram, highlighting Karen's warmth and kindness. The loss served as a poignant reminder for Kris of life's fleeting nature and the importance of cherishing loved ones.
Despite occasional familial tensions, particularly between Aunt Karen and the Kardashian clan, her passing evoked expressions of sorrow and remembrance. Kourtney and her renowned family are preparing for the upcoming season of their reality show, "The Kardashians," slated to premiere on Hulu in May. This venture follows their recent accolades at award ceremonies, marking continued success in the entertainment industry.
