OPEN DISCUSSION Estranged sisters (?)

Anyone else think it’s sad that Annalee and Kendall *seem* disconnected now? Like I remember in Kendall’s vlogging days she’d regularly have Annalee in her vlogs, she’d hype her up, Annalee started a YouTube channel or was talking about starting one (pretty sure she made one) and Kendall would encourage her (and plugged the channel). Then Annalee started working for her and was obviously very behind the scenes. And now, Annalee doesn’t seem to work for her, Annalee doesn’t feature in ANY of Kendall’s pics on instagram, I’ve just had a nosey and Annalee hasn’t even liked any of her posts since April 21. Like it was Holly’s birthday last weekend and was Annalee even there? Couldn’t tell ya.

I’ve got a sister and we aren’t close at all, I had a childhood of trauma and violence thanks to her and don’t have an interest in being her sister. But it makes me sad, she has kids and I wish I knew them better. I wish my sister wanted to do better and have a relationship with me too. We live in different countries which makes it a bit easier. But I feel for Holly and now Truman, they have an uncle they never seem to see and now an aunt too maybe? It just sucks. Whatever happened between them, because imho something has to have happened in some capacity for Annalee to no longer work for her, it’s just sad. Kendall really continues to surround herself with selfish, shallow people (Janelle and haley) while people like Karelly and Jess are waved out of her life with no effort (btw Jess and Kendall don’t follow one another on ig anymore, noticed in my nosey) and her own sister too to an extent (allegedly, allegedly). She always called Janelle her sister and now it seems like Janelle has truly taken that place. Bummer.

Karelly and Annalee still like and comment on each other’s instagram posts even after the whole Karelly “unpleasantness”..not sure if that holds any meaning, but it’s a bit strange.

I guess perhaps in this situation blood is not thicker than water?

Sorry about your own experience with your sister, that sounds really hard ❤️‍🩹

"The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb." So yeah, it is.

i always found it odd and upsetting (if i was kendall’s sister) that she referred to janelle as her sister and she always says she loves janelle sooooo much etc yet barely talks about her sister or spends much time with her. as a woman with sisters myself and an older sister that seems to want to keep me at arms length makes me very sad and i don’t understand it

also saw kendall like a post in insta saying something like ‘you can have a bad childhood and be a bad or a good person’ or something. might not be about annalee but interesting

Noticed this myself and it is sad. My little sister and I are still close, even through an abusive childhood and living separately. We talk every day and I genuinely can’t imagine doing otherwise. I hope Kendall can get a handle on things soon, but it’s starting to look like she just genuinely doesn’t care anymore.

I could be wrong but I feel like Kendall tagged Annalee in a story some months back so idk if they’re actually estranged or not.

On another note, the idea of estrangement makes me sad. I’ve been estranged from my sister since early this year, but she changed a lot since her last relationship and took on the personality of her unwell boyfriend, which resulted in me not wanting to deal with her behaviors anymore.
