Remembering MJ The matriarch and original businesswoman of the Jenner Kardashian family passes away
Paying tribute to Mary Jo MJ Campbell, the beloved guiding star of the Kardashian family
The Jenner-Kardashian family is mourning a profound loss following the passing of their beloved matriarch, Mary Jo "MJ" Campbell, mother to Kris Jenner. Longtime fans of Keeping Up with the Kardashians will remember MJ as a warm, prominent fixture on the show, accompanying her family on their journey to global superstardom.
Far more than a supportive grandmother, MJ was widely regarded as the "original mogul" and the creative force behind the family’s business-savvy mindset. Kris Jenner previously credited her mother who ran her own children's clothing brand with instilling a strong work ethic, a love for fashion, and the importance of self-presentation. Highly respected for her elegance and determination, MJ lived a remarkably full life, witnessing her children and grandchildren build a highly successful global empire before her passing.
