Mary Jo Campbell, Kris Jenner’s Mother, Passes Away at 91

Mary Jo Campbell, affectionately known as Mommy MJ, died Thursday at the age of 91. Her daughter, reality‑TV mogul Kris Jenner, announced the sad news on social media, stating “Today, we said goodbye to my beautiful Mommy MJ.”

The cause of death has not yet been released. Campbell appeared throughout the Kardashian‑Jenner saga, beginning with the 2007 premiere of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, where she served both as a supportive presence and an occasional on‑screen cameo.

Kris reflected on her mother’s legacy, saying, "She taught us that family is everything. She showed us how to love unconditionally and how to find joy in the little moments. She showed me how to face life’s challenges with resilience and faith."

The Kardashian‑Jenner family has often highlighted the importance of familial bonds in their brand, with Mary’s influence echoing in both the public moments of the show and the private decision‑making of its stars.
