Kendall Jenner, one of the world’s most recognisable models, has revealed that she wants to leave the runway behind. She wasnts to pursue a new creative path, home design.
After nearly 15 years in the modelling spotlight, the 29-year-old admits she craves a quieter, more grounded life.
KENDALL JENNER ON THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE
In a recent conversation with Vogue alongside fellow model Gigi Hadid, Jenner spoke openly about her dream.
“I swear to God, I’m going to stop everything and just design homes. I’m not kidding,” she said, according to India Times.
The reality star explained that her ideal day is simple. “I like getting up every morning and throwing on a bathing suit or sweatpants and no makeup and just being free with my day.”
This shift marks a surprising turn for the star, who built an empire on fashion runways and campaigns.
KENDALL JENNER’S WORTH
Kendall Jenner consistently ranks among the world’s highest-paid models, earning millions every year.
Based on Forbes rankings, her previous yearly earnings reached around USD 40 million, over R 728 million. Yet, she now suggests that financial success no longer drives her.
Instead, she values privacy and grounded experiences. Away from fashion weeks and brand shoots, Jenner competes in horse shows under a different name.
YOUNG PROFESSIONALS AND HIGH-POWERED CAREERS
Kendall Jenner also admitted she enjoys time at home, describing herself as a “homebody” who prefers to feel normal outside the spotlight. “I really love the simple life,” she said.
Many young professionals chase high-powered careers in Johannesburg, Durban, or Cape Town, only to find themselves longing for quieter escapes in the countryside or at the coast.
THE END OF AN ERA
Kendall Jenner’s story highlights the global shift towards prioritising mental well-being over relentless career pursuits.
Her departure from modelling, if it happens, could mark the end of an era.
But for Jenner, it may be the beginning of a more authentic chapter, one defined not by catwalks, but by cosy, carefully designed spaces.
