Kendall Jenner Shocks Fans With Plans to Leave Modeling Behind for a Humble New Career

Kendall Jenner is all about the simple life.

The supermodel, 29, has revealed plans to quit her high-powered modeling career and step out of the spotlight for good, instead shifting her focus to her true passion: home design.

The “Kardashians” star has grown up in the public eye, making her reality TV debut at just 11 years old on her family’s show, “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.”

Since then, the Kardashian-Jenner clan inked a lucrative deal with Hulu for the continuation of their reality series, though the runway star admits to Vogue Magazine that it’s not her “biggest cup of tea.”

“I swear to God, I’m going to stop everything and just design homes. I’m not kidding,” Jenner told the outlet in an interview Monday alongside fellow catwalk star Gigi Hadid.

“I love my space in LA, but I also really love the simple life. I like getting up every morning and throwing on a bathing suit or sweatpants and no makeup and just being free with my day.”

“I think about the future a lot, but I try not to overplan because you know I’m a planner,” she added.

Jenner explained that she’s a homebody, and said she loves “to feel normal” on days she’s not strutting down the runway for luxury brands.

“I love to go to the horse show dressed just like everybody else and have my helmet on and my sunglasses and my uniform, and I can compete under a completely different name,” she said.

The cover girl made her onscreen debut back in 2007, and went on to earn her stripes as the highest-paid model in the world in the years that followed.

During an appearance on influencer Emma Chamberlain’s “Anything Goes” podcast in Aug. 2024, the model spoke about the early days of her family’s fame.

“We went to school. We went to school as long as we could. I started home school, 11th and 12th grade,” she recalled.

“So even though we had a TV show at home, we were going to regular school all day and had our friends that we had from before the show started.”

“I think that Kylie and I, the one thing we had was a lot of stability, a lot of love and a really great support system and really great friends.”

“There’s also an aspect of us being really grateful that we had older siblings that we got to see do things before us and lead us in a way,” she added.
