For years, the Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve party was less a family gathering and more a large-scale production. What began as a modest tradition hosted by Kris Jenner in the late 1970s grew into an annual event that rivalled Hollywood premieres, complete with celebrity guest lists, themed décor and budgets that reportedly climbed as high as $1.3 million during its most elaborate years.

But in recent holiday seasons, something shifted. The celebration continued, without the elaborate production that once defined it. The reasons have less to do with money or fading relevance and more to do with logistics, timing and a family whose circumstances have changed.

At its peak, the Christmas Eve party required months of planning. Costs were typically split among the siblings, and each year came with pressure to outdo the last. The most expensive editions, widely reported during Kim Kardashian’s marriage to Kanye West, included artificial snow installations, custom-built sets, live performances and enough catering and security to support hundreds of guests.

That scale became harder to justify as the family’s lives grew more complex. Multiple Kardashian homes were undergoing major renovations at the same time, leaving no single residence fully equipped to host an event of that size. Hosting hundreds of guests is not simply about space; it requires finished kitchens, accessible layouts, parking logistics and strict security coordination. Without a suitable venue, the production model stopped making sense.

Timing also played a role. In recent years, the family has hosted several major celebrations outside the festive period, including milestone birthdays that demanded the same level of planning and expense once reserved for Christmas Eve. Staging two large-scale events within weeks of each other proved impractical, given the level of planning required.

There is also the issue of growth. As the Kardashian-Jenner children have got older, the guest list has expanded organically. What was once a controlled, invite-only gathering became harder to manage as children wanted to include friends and extended circles widened. The party was no longer just a family tradition; it had become an operational challenge.

Publicly, Kim Kardashian has described recent gatherings as smaller and more family-focused. She has been clear that the tradition itself has not ended, only the format. The emphasis has shifted from hosting the industry to hosting each other.

Recent coverage reflects that change. Instead of headline-driven guest lists, attention has centred on family attendance, outfits and scaled-back settings. The party still happens, but it no longer functions as a social checkpoint for the celebrity calendar.

What is notable is the absence of any formal announcement. There was no declaration that the party was over. It simply changed. The Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve celebration stopped trying to be an event and returned, to being a gathering.

The change reflects a reassessment of what the tradition needs to be.

David and Victoria Beckham have long been one of Britain’s most admired celebrity couples. Glamorous, successful, and highly visible, they have also kept their family life largely private. Recent reports, however, suggest tension within the family, particularly involving their eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham. Here’s a timeline of the publicly reported events.
Brooklyn Beckham married Nicola Peltz in Palm Beach in April 2022. Media outlets noted potential tension between Nicola and Victoria, including reports that Nicola did not wear a design by Victoria for the wedding. Both parties publicly denied any disagreement, but the coverage sparked early speculation about a possible rift.

Throughout 2023, the Beckhams appeared together at events, maintaining a united public image. However, some media outlets highlighted Brooklyn’s absence from certain family occasions. While nothing was confirmed, commentators began noting a pattern of selective participation in public events.
In 2025, Brooklyn and Nicola missed several family milestones, including David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations. Reports suggested these absences may have indicated private tensions, though neither side provided official confirmation.
In December 2025, media outlets reported that Brooklyn had blocked his parents and siblings on Instagram. This action was widely covered as a sign of strained communication. Cruz Beckham clarified that David and Victoria had not unfollowed Brooklyn; he had blocked them. Nicola Peltz shared images with her own family around the same time, which media interpreted as a show of support for Brooklyn.

Several potential causes have been cited in reporting. Coverage suggested friction over fashion choices and family dynamics during the 2022 wedding. Certain Instagram interactions reportedly contributed to misunderstandings. Absences from celebrations throughout 2025 drew attention from the media. None of these explanations have been confirmed by the Beckhams.
As of December 2025, Brooklyn has limited social media contact with his immediate family. Cruz Beckham publicly clarified the family’s social media situation. The Beckhams have not issued an official statement on private family matters. The publicly visible information is limited to media reports and selective social media posts.

David and Victoria Beckham are married since 1999 and have four children: Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. Public interest in their family remains high, making any perceived tension highly newsworthy. Even in well-managed celebrity households, private disagreements can become public quickly, especially when social media is involved. For now, the Beckhams’ reported feud remains largely private, with only fragments visible through media coverage and social media interactions.

On the evening of December 9, 2025, Taylor Swift and Este Haim stepped out for a low-key girls’ night at a private Manhattan club. Fans got a rare glimpse of the two stars away from cameras and stages, enjoying a quiet night together.

The venue was Chez Margaux, a members-only supper club in Manhattan. Taylor arrived in a black Louis Vuitton coat, paired with matching knee-high boots, a minimalist black bag, and sheer tights. Her hair was sleek, and her makeup simple but polished, combining warmth for the winter chill with a clear sense of style. Este Haim wore a navy coat over a black dress, finishing the outfit with gold heels. Both looked stylish without appearing overly styled, striking a balance between comfort and sophistication.

Swift and Haim’s friendship goes beyond casual camaraderie. Haim’s band opened for Taylor during her “1989” Tour, and the two have collaborated musically, most notably on the 2020 track No Body, No Crime. The dinner offered a moment for the two to reconnect after busy schedules, tours, and individual projects.

The timing of the night also aligned with a busy period for Swift, who is in New York ahead of upcoming projects including a docuseries and concert film. For Haim, maintaining the friendship demonstrates how their bond has endured over years of shared experiences, both on and off stage.

Media coverage focused on the styling choices and natural energy between the two. Outlets noted how Taylor’s all-black ensemble stood out for its clean lines and bold boots, while Este’s outfit highlighted her understated elegance. Fans and commentators alike were struck by the simplicity and authenticity of the night, noting that the evening felt genuine rather than performative.

What may have looked like just a casual dinner was, in reality, a subtle celebration of a long-standing friendship. There were no theatrics or unnecessary spectacle, just two artists enjoying each other’s company and a brief respite from the demands of fame.
