After 14 years of watching the iconic Kardashian-Jenner family and keeping up with their daily lives, “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” is coming to a close following its 20th season.

The reality show, which airs on E!, has been on television for over a decade and helped make the family a household name. The show began when the youngest sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, were just 11 and nine years old. After all these years of success on the hit television show, members of the Kardashian clan continue to be prominent in the public eye.

An article published by Variety.com titled, “‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ Ending After 20 Seasons on E!” noted a statement made by the family on the announcement of the series coming to a close. “After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and several spin-off shows, we’ve decided as a family to end this very special journey. We are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years…” the statement read.

To say the least, the series has undoubtedly been an entertaining one, with so many highs and lows within the family and drama filmed for the world to see. It is no surprise that the series has remained the most popular show featured on E!

Whether you love or hate them, the Kardashian family has found great success in a variety of outlets since the series began back in 2007. Not only have the sisters continued starring in the hit series, but they have also gone on to model and create businesses.

The matriarch of the family, Kris Jenner, is one of the most affluent entrepreneurs in the industry, managing her five daughters and making a name for the family. Kendall Jenner is one of the most successful models in the industry while Kylie Jenner has the highest net worth of all of the sisters, largely due to her prominent makeup line, Kylie Cosmetics. Kim Kardashian-West is also a business owner, creating KKW Beauty, along with having a popular app called Kim Kardashian: Hollywood. Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian have gone on to open their own businesses, each prosperous in their own right, with Kourtney launching her lifestyle website “Poosh” and Khloe opening several businesses, including Kardashian Glow and the Good American clothing line, whose mission is to emphasize curvier body types.

The series changed all the Kardashians’ lives forever and provided years of laughter and tears as we all, in one way or another, kept up with the Kardashians.
