Emma, 43, and KoKo partnered to launch denim brand Good American back in October 2016, which made a staggering $1million in its first day.
But fast forward ten years, and while Khloe remains an owner of the fashion line today, she’s since expressed she no longer feels the need to be as involved.

“Good American is doing so well, and Good American is strong enough and stable enough to sustain on its own,” she explained during a recent episode of her podcast Khloe in Wonderland.
With Khloe and Emma now spending less time working together their friendship has essentially dissolved, The Sun understands.

A well-placed insider tells us: “Over time, Khloe just wasn’t as involved – she started cancelling events and not promoting the brand.
“She has a lot on in her personal life, as fans know, but Emma is a businesswoman first and foremost and that just didn’t wash with her.
“Khloe has so much going on and it just wasn’t a priority in her life. In theory, Khloe is still the founder of Good American but it’s Emma who does the hard work behind the scenes. I don’t think Khloe & Emma are on speaking terms now.”
Earlier this year, Khloe dropped the biggest hint yet she was ‘consciously uncoupling’ from her friendship with Emma when she unfollowed her on Instagram.
Our source adds: “They are both smart women who realised it was time to part ways professionally, and they had to navigate it carefully so the brand wasn’t damaged as they are both heavily involved.”
After setting up Good American with Khloe, Emma later teamed up with Kim, 45, to work on her shapewear line SKIMS which debuted in 2019.
And she also joined forces with Kylie Jenner, 29, in 2023 to launch her fashion brand KHY.
But in recent years Emma’s own star has been on the rise. She joined Dragon’s Den in 2024 and she’s been a recurring guest investor on the American version Shark Tank since 2021.
She launched her podcast Aspire in 2025 and earlier this year released her book Start With Yourself: A New Vision for Work & Life.
The Sun understands that, while she was initially happy to fade into the background on projects with the Kardashians, Emma is keen for her hard work to be seen these days.

“As her profile has grown over the last few years, Emma wants her own hard work recognised,” an insider said. “Good American was Emma’s brain child, but it was Khloe’s investment and her profile that made it happen.
“The fall out with Khloe didn’t affect Emma’s relationship with Kim or the rest of the family, they’ve compartmentalised that off, but it’s very much a business-only relationship.
“Emma is still very involved with Skims, and despite Kim being a mum of four, she’s still extremely hands on and promotes the brand all the time.”
Fans were left convinced that Emma was taking a swipe at Khloe during an interview with Cardi B on her podcast earlier this year.
Rapper Cardi, 33, said: “Oh my God, please y’all – if you ever want to build something, please choose good partners.
“Not everybody with money [is a] good partner. I’m telling you.”
Sparking speculation that she was taking aim at Khloe, Emma was quick to quip loudly: “Oh yeah, say that again…”
Our source added: “Going their separate ways professionally has not been easy and it has affected Emma and Khloe’s friendship, because it’s hard to move past ending a working partnership and there are grievances on both sides.”
The Sun has reached out to representatives for Khloe and Emma for comment.
KHLOE Kardashian paid tribute to her younger sister Kylie Jenner with a series of throwback snaps – and fans couldn’t help but comment on her changing features.
TV star Khloe posted the range of retro pics online alongside her little sister Kylie for her 29th birthday – while followers drew comparison with her visage pre-surgery.

A second stated: “Khloe looks sooo different on the 5th pic. I’m shocked she shared that with people!”

A third mused: “Seeing pictures of them as kids makes my heart so sad for the little girls they used to be.”
The model and mum-of-two penned a heartfelt essay to Kylie on her big day and wrote: “Happy birthday to my world class poker player baby sister.
“Kylie, I swear in another lifetime I was your mother. I don’t care how old you are, you will forever be my baby.
“I know I’ve loved you long before this life and I’ll love you long after it.

“My sister by blood, my best friend by choice, and one of the greatest loves of my life.
“I know in every lifetime, every reality, every realm, we will always find one another.”

She continued: “Watching you become the woman you are makes me so incredibly proud and emotional.
“The mother, friend, sister, daughter, businesswoman you are inspires me endlessly.
“You light up spaces you aren’t even in by the mention of your name.
“You’re hysterical, gentle, loving, lighthearted, patient and so much fun and yes, obviously the most gorgeous but your heart will forever be the most beautiful thing about you.”
She concluded: “I know how rare of a bond all of ours is, and I’ll never take it for granted.
“What a blessing that I get to do life with you the way that we do.
“My forever baby. My forever bestie. My forever soulmate. My forever.
Last year, she revealed she has had a nose job, laser hair for the “hairline and everywhere else”, Botox and sculptra “where my face tumor was removed in my cheek”.

Khloe added that she had also undergone soft wave laser for skin tightening, and “filler in the past but not any over the last few years (I hear it never goes away, so I’m sure it’s still there but calmed down)”.
She added: “Collagen baby threads underneath my chin and neck.
“Salmon sperm facials/regular facials, peptides, vitamins and daily skin care.”
Kylie turned 29 on Monday 10th, but threw herself a party at home last Friday evening.
Her sisters Kim and Khloe were in attendance as well as Hailey Bieber and husband Justin Bieber.
TOMMY Fury is not impressed with Kim Kardashian’s parenting style.
The boxer – who shares two children with Molly-Mae Hague – expressed his thoughts about Kim’s need for “10 nannies”, after The Sun exclusively revealed that the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star uses a “24 hour rotation system” to monitor her four kids.

On his What The Fury podcast with his dad John, Tommy read out “10 nannies and mannies raising Kim Kardashian’s kids.”
“If you can’t look after these kids yourself, don’t have them,” John declared, and while Tommy said they “don’t know the full story, he went on to say: “I don’t understand people who just dump the kids with nannies and mannies all day…”

Branding it “ridiculous”, John added: “In my family, there was a lot of us and my mother looked after us all by herself.”
John explained that his mother couldn’t afford the extra help when he was young,

Tommy then admitted he and Molly-Mae have a nanny to help with children Bambi, three, and Midas who was born in June.
He said: “I’m all for having some help on board and help you out – me and Molly, we have help.
“But we’re with Bambi every day, all day; it’s only if I’ve got to go on a call or Molly’s on a call or we’ve got to shoot out.
“The baby’s looked after all the time.”
This prompted fans to brand Tommy a “hypocrite” with many taking issue at the two men judging Kim as a mother.
“Leave the woman alone. I can do with 15 nannies as a busy working mother. Not easy. We need and can do with the help . Men judging a hard working business woman,” one scolded.
Another pointed out the irony, writing: “A man with a full time nanny judging a woman with a full time nanny!”
Another penned: “Men. Mansplaining what they have no clue about.”
While someone else wrote: “[Tommy and Molly] have someone on call 24/7 so his argument is completely invalid. Honestly, these people are deluded!”
Last year, The Sun revealed Kim, 44, has a squad of dedicated men and women who help raise the children she shares with ex husband Kanye West – North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm – with Kim heading up the military-style operation.
Insiders revealed that each nanny is assigned a brief on her child’s needs and Kim is staffed seven days a week – night and day.
There’s a strict regime in place for her little ones, so they never go without support while she juggles her billion-dollar empire.
A night nanny arranges everything for the mornings such as school supplies and football kits, and is on call in case anyone wakes up in the night.
Then the other nannies start at 6am on the dot and work 12-hour shifts.
The Wound is Where the Light Enters: A Memoir of Resilience
By Chris Young Little, Brown and Company: 336 pages, $35

Chris Young grew up in Clarksville, Tenn., in the direst imaginable circumstances — unimaginable, in fact, to many of us.
He never knew his father. His mother was a crack addict with a habit of stabbing her romantic partners. While his mom was in prison, Young and his older brother, Robert, mostly fended for themselves, often in a home that lacked electricity and running water. Young, tormented by sickle-cell disease, saw many of those closest to him die by homicide or suicide.
The two boys weren’t totally bereft. They had a grandfather, cousins, friends and a stepfather. A neighbor provided showers, until his water bill got too high; another supplied hot meals. A woman known as Big Mama offered shelter and tough love. But it wasn’t nearly enough. Desperate for money, the teenage Young — smart, entrepreneurial, dreaming of a rap career — became a gun-toting drug dealer.
Young’s searing memoir, “The Wound Is Where the Light Enters,” chronicles this bitter childhood and its devastating consequences. The evocative title is a quotation from the 13th century Persian poet Rumi.
Unlike some prison memoirs, this isn’t an innocence story. But it is no less an indictment of the U.S. justice system — its laws, its courts and its brutal prisons. “The constant state of heightened agitation and awareness that it takes to survive a single day in a federal penitentiary is enough to drive a man insane,” Young writes. “At every turn, the system is designed to crush your humanity. You’re an animal in there and are expected to act like one.”
But not everyone does. “The Wound Is Where the Light Enters” not only reveals the system’s horrors, but also celebrates the redemptive power of hope, intellect and community.
By the time Young was swept up in a federal drug investigation, he already had two felony drug convictions. His involvement in the federal conspiracy case, as he tells it, was marginal. He was no kingpin and had never met most of the people being charged.
But he faced a zealous prosecutor, with only court-appointed attorneys at his side. Worse yet, he was up against a harsh “three-strikes” law that replaced judicial discretion with mandatory minimum sentences.
Young’s own pride and sense of justice also came into play. He could have pleaded guilty, perhaps even cooperated, and received a finite (though still hefty) prison sentence. Instead, determined to argue his case, he opted for a trial at which conviction was all but certain. Then, against advice, he presented a meticulously crafted and rehearsed speech at his sentencing hearing.
The 26-year-old Young, who’d already spent four years behind bars, had used that time productively. A former straight-A student who had dropped out of high school, he had embarked on a program of self-education, reading deeply in African American history, Greek philosophy, finance and other subjects. “Every day,” he writes, “I left the library with new language to put to my thoughts.”
Young told the court about his chaotic upbringing and his recent scholarly pursuits. “He spoke of the things he could do if he did not have to die in prison. He told me of the possibilities that would never be,” the trial judge, Kevin H. Sharp, writes in the book’s foreword. “It was impossible to listen to someone so full of compassion, intelligence, and, above all, promise, and not question the system that had not just allowed this to happen but required it.”
Sharp sentenced Young to life without the possibility of parole, as the law mandated. But two years later, he stepped down from the bench and joined Young’s defense team.
Young describes his childhood mostly from the perspective of a boy — alternately bewildered, hurting, depressed and “mad all the time.” His account of his incarceration, with its mind-numbing routines, gang hegemony and intermittent violence, is equally gripping.
At McCreary, the tense high-security federal prison in Kentucky known as Misery Mountain, Young meditated, adhered to a workout routine, read prodigiously, taught GED classes to fellow inmates and maintained ties to his few surviving loved ones. And he kept hoping. “The system’s control over my body was absolute,” Young writes. “Its control over my mind was not.”
In 2015, the sickle cell-related disintegration of his hips prompted Young’s transfer to a low-security prison, Federal Medical Center Lexington. Here the surroundings are less bleak, the library better, the prisoners friendlier. Young teaches himself to code and envisions an app that will focus on mental health and suicide prevention. Yet he still must fight to obtain the hip replacement surgery he so desperately needs.
By now, his case has attracted sympathetic press attention and more effective lawyers. Even so, his story takes a dark turn. From Lexington, he is sent to his most terrifying prison yet, known as Bloody Beaumont, where COVID-19 adds another layer of threat. A judge reduces his sentence, but, for reasons never entirely clear, he is suddenly thrown into the prison’s “hole,” its barbarous solitary confinement cells.
It is from that hell that Young, more than a decade after his arrest, emerges to freedom — earning a degree in economics and public policy from Southern Methodist University, pursuing a consulting career and writing this indelible book. For his 2021 grant of executive clemency, he has his lawyers and reality-TV star Kim Kardashian to thank — as well as President Trump.

Kim, 45, was wearing huge sunglasses and a floor-length coat on a night out in Beverly Hills, California, as she debuted the blonde revamp.
It was a marked change from the US star’s last public outing — cheering on Brit boyfriend Sir Lewis Hamilton, 41, at the Monaco Grand Prix two weeks ago.
Kim has been hilariously mocked by F1 ace Kimi Antonelli after stealing his towel at the Monaco Grand Prix.
This sparked fury online, with Kim seemingly unaware that the towel was for the driver as she used it to wipe her sunglasses while walking through the paddock.
But now, 19-year-old Kimi has made light of the misunderstanding in a hilarious TikTok video, which was shared to the official Mercedes page.
In the clip, Kimi is seen asking around for his towel, before washing his hands and having nowhere to dry them.
“Hey, have you seen my towel?” the sportsman asks the camera.

Kim Kardashian appeared in Lewis Hamilton’s photo dump from the star-studded Monaco Grand Prix weekend attended by a host of celebrities and sporting icons.
Kim looked glamorous as ever, and many were quick to point out that it was the first time Lewis had shared a photo featuring Kim on his social media.
In the snap, Kim was seen holding Lewis’ racing helmet.
The reality star opted for a daring black sheer top, adding to the glamour of the Monaco Grand Prix weekend.
The stylish photo immediately caught fans’ attention.
One commented: “Great pics Lewis and a fab weekend well done ❤️ And welcome to the family Kim kardashian ❤️”
Another added: “In his boyfriend era”.
A third penned: “YES!!!!!! Kim on the grid!”
A fourth said: “Omgggggg kimmmmmm😍”
A fifth wrote: “Omg Kim !! U guys are so cute”.

Kim made her F1 trackside debut to support her Ferrari driver boyfriend.
She arrived with her sister Khloe Kardashian as well as a huge entourage.
Kim wore a stunning cream one-shoulder maxi dress, while Khloe opted for a satin plunge midi dress also in cream.
Kim watched the race and Lewis narrowly miss out on winning.
Kimi Antonelli became the youngest winner at 19 years old.
Despite the loss, Lewis appeared in high spirits as he blew Kim a kiss and sprayed her with champagne as he celebrated on the podium.

Kim and Lewis have been friends for over a decade.
They were first spotted getting cosy on New Year’s Eve in Aspen.
They went public with their romance at the Super Bowl in February.
Just last week, they took a huge step in their relationship as he was seen with her four children for the first time.
A source previously said that the couple have an “intense” relationship and Kardashian’s family absolutely “adores” him.
IT was meant to be the Lewis Hamilton show as the F1 veteran celebrated after a record-equalling eighth podium finish at the glitzy Monaco Grand Prix.
But girlfriend Kim Kardashian, in a figure-hugging, backless Gucci cream dress, put that all in a spin as it was her bolshy disregard for trackside etiquette that made headlines.
Kim K’s figure-hugging dress was not the only way she stood out at the weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix as she turned up with sister KhloeCredit: SplashKim K has riled fellow drivers’ Wags, sparking calls for her to be banned from the exclusive paddockCredit: PA
After seven-time world champ Lewis, 41, had rung back the years to claim a surprise second-place finish, Kim then turned spoilsport as she ducked under a brolly to avoid being splashed with celebratory champagne.
Oh, and she whipped the towel laid out for the race winner, Italian teen Kimi Antonelli, to dry himself with.
Our source trackside said: “Kim’s behaviour might pass in LA but the Europeans see it differently. The day should have been about the drivers, but it became the Kim K circus.
“People were watching in horror as she failed to embrace any of the F1 traditions. Snubbing Martin Brundle is one thing, but hiding from the champagne spray with an umbrella was a step too far for many — and the fact she just pushed Holly and Michael McIntyre out of the way was mind-blowing.
“Some of the other Wags were horrified and Alexandra Leclerc, the wife of Lewis’s Ferrari teammate Charles, was clearly unimpressed by her new trackside companion.
“Kim’s body language towards her as they watched the race was verging on rude. It was very uncomfortable to see.”
The Sun revealed earlier this year how Kim and Lewis had begun dating — but last weekend was the first time she has turned up to watch him race, joined by sister Khloe, 41.
Her dress was also a talking point because last month it was announced Gucci had become the first luxury fashion house to partner with an F1 team — launching Gucci Racing Alpine.
Our insider said: “The timing of Kim wearing Gucci can’t have been a coincidence. In fact she’s been wearing the brand a lot since she started dating Lewis.”
But as the Kardashian circus rolled into town, everyone and their VIP card was expected to make way, including former This Morning presenter Holly and TV funnyman Michael.
The moment was caught on film — with Holly and Michael left gobsmacked as their interview was disrupted and shouts of “mind out!” could be heard ringing out while Kim’s minders stormed past with her hidden away in their midst.
Michael could, at least, see the funny side as he reacted in his signature excitable tone, quipping: “It’s the Kardashians . . . I’m joining them!”

He also could not resist a cheeky reference to Kim’s famously mighty toosh — joking: “My back’s gone! I think something belonging to Kim, I’m not mentioning anything, may have struck me in my lower back area, and I’ve got to tell you that it hurt.”
But others were far from amused by the unwelcome Kardashian chaos.
Another source said: “Some of the other Wags thought Kim totally took over Monaco. It’s like the circus came to town — even the F1 Instagram account was posting about her. Many of the drivers’ wives and girlfriends are influencers, and races are their opportunity to shine. But all anyone spoke about was Kim.”
Race-goers also noted that after Kim barged her way into centre stage, no one was talking to her, as she was moved swiftly from one place to another by her huge team.
The Hollywood hoopla was in full swing but Kim had clearly failed to do her homework on paddock and grid dos and don’ts, and she had those in the sport’s inner circle blowing gaskets left, right and centre.
Cocking a snook at veteran Sky Sports interviewer and former F1 driver Martin Brundle got her off to the worst possible start before the race had begun.
In clips that have since gone viral, the Kardashians star can be seen briefly waving at 67-year-old Martin before then stone-cold blanking the ex-Benetton driver of Eighties and Nineties race fame.
When it came to the uncorking of champagne after the race, Kim went down about as well as a flat tyre as she recoiled in horror at the prospect of champagne spray detracting from her queen bee look.

To add insult to injury, she then grabbed the towel traditionally set out for the race winner and used it to wipe down her sunglasses before walking off with it.
A fan watching aghast as these antics unfolded, blasted: “What is Kim Kardashian doing on the F1 grid? She is making the moment all about her — it is one of the most bizarre things I have ever seen. Ban celebrities from the grid.”
Another equally revved-up onlooker demanded: “Can we please ban these disrespectful ingrates like Kim Kardashian from F1? If you won’t show the people who make the sport what it is the respect they deserve, then you have no place in our world.”
Liv Blankson, a creator of online content for Formula 1, who has been following the sport since childhood and is a huge fan of Lewis Hamilton, was also baffled by Kim’s carrying on.
She told us: “There is an F1 etiquette and when someone takes a step wrong, it’s very obvious. I have no issue with her being there, but do worry that she will overshadow the racing, which is what us fans are actually there for.
“If you’re on the grid just before the race, you have to expect to be spoken to, it’s just what happens.
“You have to be prepared. The fact she didn’t talk to Martin could be seen as disrespectful. He was a well-known racing driver and I hate it when he gets blanked.
“That was my main gripe with Kim being there. If you are going to be there, then please do some research. Celebrity culture in F1 is getting bigger and will grow even more now that Kim is on the scene, but us fans like it when they make the effort to get to know racing, the drivers, the teams and all the people that make it happen.
“Lewis just seems happy and relaxed and he did well, so maybe she is good luck.
“We’ll have to wait and see.”

Indeed, Lewis certainly seemed oblivious to the drama around his biggest and brashest new fan.
On the contrary, he even blew her a kiss from the podium as he gushed: “It’s amazing to have good people around you and good people supporting you.
“She does that for me every day. With my friends, incredible turnout just overall with people. I don’t really know what else to say.”
Thanking Kim again, he added: “It’s amazing to have her come this weekend and have the support.” A source said of the pair’s romance,
“They are in a serious, committed relationship” — and this latest public display of affection only sends the story into turbo-drive.
Lewis failed to take the winner’s spoils on race day as 19-year-old Mercedes wonderkid Antonelli, who replaced him on that team last year, beat him to the chequered flag and became the youngest ever winner of the Monaco Grand Prix.
But it was still a fine day for Lewis who matched the late, great Brazilian Ayrton Senna for Monaco podium finishes.
He moved up into second in this season’s drivers’ championship, leapfrogging his old Mercedes teammate George Russell and showing he has plenty left in the tank after a difficult season.
There have been rumblings that Lewis, now one of the oldest on the F1 circuit, may soon be on the home straight of his superstar career — but more results like the one this weekend will likely put such talk on hold.
And Kim may yet prove an asset.
Our insider said: “Lewis and Kim have the potential to be the next Posh and Becks of the racing world.
“Kim is a career mastermind and will no doubt be laying the groundwork.”
Next weekend, Lewis competes in the Spanish Grand Prix — but will Kim be along for the ride? Or consigned to the pits?
It is certainly too early to declare her his lucky charm, despite the weekend’s podium finish — but she sure knows how to command pole position.

Holly shared a collection of videos from the star-studded event on Instagram, including several behind-the-scenes candid moments from the famous race.
Michael said: “It’s a wave! It’s the Kardashians! I’m joining them!”
He followed them, leaving Holly behind. But then he returned, joking that he sustained an injury, saying: “We’ve got a live update. I’ve just been hit by like a wave.
“You know when you’re on holiday and a wave hits you and it’s like “that’s actually quite dangerous”. We’ve been Kardashian waved.”
Holly added: “That was ridiculous.”
Michael added: “My back’s gone. I think something belonging to Kim, I’m not mentioning anything, may have struck me in my lower back earlier. And I gotta tell you, it hurt!”

Kim, who was married to Kanye West, 48, from 2014 to 2022, said last October she could not imagine herself dating another famous man.
She told a podcast that the person “would have to be someone super- special” for her to start another relationship.
Kim explained: “I don’t know if I have the energy or whether I’ve met the right person that I would want to blend my family with.”
On whether she might date another musician or athlete, she added: “Neither. We’re going, like, lawyers and longevity scientists who would give me all their secrets.”
After splitting from Kanye, she dated comedian Pete Davidson and then NFL player Odell Beckham Jr until things fizzled out in April 2024.
While Lewis has not had a serious relationship since he split from Pussycat Dolls singerNicole Scherzingerin 2015 after almost eight years.
KIM Kardashian is flogging her rare designer clobber on her fashion website — but you’ll need a 19-inch waist to wear it.
The reality star, 45, is selling items from her Disney+ series All’s Fair, including a 1995 John Galliano top and jacket for £43,000, and a £1,265 Thierry Mugler suit.

Kim has cinched her 24-26in waist to 19ins for red carpet events such as Met Galas.
And with her reported 43-inch bum many clothes are specially tailored for her shape.
Most items from her All’s Fair wardrobe are marked with a warning to buyers, with one assistant writing next to the Mugler suit: “Pants were altered to fit Kim’s body.”
A dress by the late French designer was also adjusted for the superstar.
The John Galliano skirt was tweaked to fit her shapely derrière, along with a £1,300 three-piece suit from Patou.
A Christian Dior silk coat was also tailored to fit Kim’s waist — going from a UK size 18 to size six.
Kim’s family have been using the “Kardashian Kloset” website to flog used clothes since 2019.
It’s unknown if money from sales go into the family’s pockets or to charity.

Kim keeps every outfit she’s worn in storage — including her Met Gala designs and even the bridesmaids dress she wore to sister Khloe’s wedding to Lamar Odom in 2009.
She said of her archive: “This is its own time capsule.
“I have every look, every dress, every event.
“I love it, it’s like going down memory lane.”

She is not the only one turning heartbreak into a big-brand deal.
From multi-million-pound ads to career switches designed to overshadow an ex, the new rule of uncoupling is success.
Celebrity publicist Emma Bunning says: “We’re seeing stars turn break-ups into business opportunities, launching new ventures, signing major partnerships and embarking on career blitzes just as their personal lives hit the headlines.
“It’s savvy PR because it shifts the narrative from heartbreak to success.”
The presenter’s deal with the sexy-yet-sophisticated brand is bound to bolster her bank balance even further.
Her career move comes hot on the heels of fronting the new Love Island series, which kicked off last night, and her upcoming gig on Celebrity Traitors – together bolstering her net worth of £2million.
