To our amazing fans - It is with heavy hearts that we’ve made the difficult decision as a family to say goodbye to Keeping Up with the Kardashians. After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spin-off shows, we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years – through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children. We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way. Thank you to the thousands of individuals and businesses that have been a part of this experience and, most importantly, a very special thank you to Ryan Seacrest for believing in us, E! for being our partner, and our production team at Bunim/Murray, who’ve spent countless hours documenting our lives. Our last season will air early next year in 2021. Without Keeping Up with The Kardashians, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has watched and supported me and my family these past 14 incredible years. This show made us who we are and I will be forever in debt to everyone who played a role in shaping our careers and changing our lives forever. With Love and Gratitude, Kim

Khloé Kardashian also tweeted about the news, telling followers, "Change is tough but sometimes needed." 

The news comes after a tumultuous past few months for the show, which focused on the lives of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters Kim, Khloé, Kourtney, Kylie, and Kendall, as well as their mother, Kris. 

In April, it was revealed that ratings for "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" had fallen in recent weeks.

And in July, star Kourtney Kardashian famously left the show, saying she felt "unfulfilled" and that the reality program "became a toxic environment for me."

But recently, the Kardashian-Jenner siblings have moved away from their reality TV origins — the sisters also have their own successful brands and careers.

Kourtney has the lifestyle site Poosh while Khloe is the co-founder of Good American, a clothing company.

Kim is famously doing a law apprenticeship and advocating for prison reform in addition to promoting her brands SKIMS and KKW Beauty.

Earlier on Tuesday, Kim announced that she and her sisters Kourtney and Khloe had teamed up for another collaborative KKW Fragrance collection.

Kendall Jenner is a fashion model and sister Kylie owns her Kylie Cosmetics empire.
