Early Life & Family Dynamics
Born into Hollywood-adjacent fame, Brandon spent his childhood under the glare of the spotlight. His parents divorced in 1986, and Caitlyn’s 1991 marriage to Kris Jenner dramatically changed the family dynamics. Brandon and Brody spent much of their childhood in Malibu with their mother, Linda, while Caitlyn became increasingly involved with the Kardashian family. Brandon later said he felt estranged from Caitlyn during his youth, seeing them only sporadically between ages 8 and 25.
Education: Attended the arts-focused Crossroads School in Santa Monica. Initially drawn to sports, a motorcycle accident in his teens redirected his passion toward music, influenced by his mother’s industry connections.
