Looks like the Kardashian Christmas Eve extravaganza will be one Kardashian short this year! Yes, Khloe Kardashian is taking a rain check, and the reason has everything to do with germ warfare (thanks, kids).
For those who don’t know, this Christmas Eve shindig isn’t just a party—it’s practically a national holiday in Kardashian-land. Since 1987, the family’s been decking halls, flaunting couture, and dropping jaws with their over-the-top festive soirées. Picture a winter wonderland, but with more diamonds and drama.
But alas, Khloe, 40, has announced she won’t be gracing this year’s event with her presence. Instead, she’s swapping champagne toasts for thermometer checks and Christmas carols for “Baby Shark.” Why, you ask? Because her tiny humans—Tatum, 2, and True, 6—have decided to celebrate the holidays with runny noses and a side of misery.
“Tatum was sick the entire weekend, and now my TuTu is sick,” Khloe spilled on her Instagram Story, adding a virtual sigh that we could all feel in our souls.
Then came the kicker: “For the first time in a long, long time, we will miss Christmas Eve,” she confessed, followed by, “I feel so terrible for my sick littles.” Awww. But also… ouch.
Khloe wrapped up her post with a little hope and a lot of desperation: “No fun, but I pray we are fine for Santa tomorrow!!!” Fingers crossed, Khloe. We can only imagine the stakes of a Kardashian Christmas morning—sparkly tree, perfectly wrapped gifts, and a sleigh-load of Santa-sized expectations.
So, while her sisters are probably posing next to ice sculptures of reindeer and sipping artisanal hot cocoa, Khloe will be home in sweatpants, probably with a bottle of disinfectant in one hand and a thermometer in the other. And let’s be real, isn’t that the real spirit of the holidays?
