Kourtney Kardashian pays heartfelt tribute to her late father Robert Kardashian on what would have been his 80th birthday


The reality star has marked what would have been her father's 80th birthday with a sweet Instagram post.

After dating for three years, the Los Angeles native married his third wife, Ellen Pierson (née Markowitz), six weeks prior to his death. Robert had not only been one of the lawyers for Simpson during his widely publicized murder trial, he had also been his friend for many years before the court proceedings, which ended with an acquittal for the former football great. The reality star who opened up about her parents' divorce in the interview with GQ, said her father urged her to take care of her siblings before he passed away from esophageal cancer - two months after being diagnosed.
