The 28-year-old supermodel, Kendall Jenner, shared in an interview with Forbes that she often forgets that Kris Jenner is her mom as well. The 818 Tequila founder spoke about how she differentiates her business and familial bonds. She said:
“My mom is my mom, but she’s also my manager. We have moments when we’re talking on the phone, and we’re talking about business, maybe having a heated conversation about something, and then all of a sudden, she’s like, ‘OK, I love you. How are you feeling today?’ and I’m like, ‘Oh my god, yeah, you’re my mom, too!’”

Tequila has a special place in Kendall’s heart. She attributes her love for it to her parents, who regularly consumed it while she was growing up. As an adult, her passion for it only grew stronger. During the pandemic, Kendall conducted blind taste tests for her family and friends. She would compare their favourite tequila brands against her new product. Kendall said:
“With modelling, I was a part of someone else’s vision. I was their character and whoever they wanted me to be at that moment. The shift into being a founder and owning my own business was a really cool way of getting to know myself again.”
The 68-year-old momager, Kris Jenner, an investor in her daughter’s tequila brand, praised Kendall’s business skills. The mother of six also commended Kendall's work with the brand. She said:
“Kendall has been very independent about this process and really shown me that she’s not only an amazing businesswoman, but super-smart, super-focused, [has an] amazing work ethic. She has every single part of what it takes to be in her position, and she’s nailing it.”
