Although she seems to have mysteriously appeared and taken center stage as Kylie Jenner’s new BFF, Stassie Karanikolaou and Jenner have been friends for over 10 years.
Granted, the tides turned after Jenner sent Jordyn Woods packing in February 2019 over allegations that Woods and Jenner’s half-sister, Kloe Kardashian’s then-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson, were kissing at a party.
Confused yet? Well, it is hard to keep up with the Kardashians. Just a brief backstory on the Woods/Thompson debacle, and we’ll launch into more about Karanikolaou.
Woods and Jenner apparently met in December of 2013 and became fast friends with Woods moving into Jenner’s Calabasas mansion in 2016. Fast forward to allegedly making out with Thompson while Kardashian was pregnant with his child, and well, you can see how the roof caved in on the Woods/Jenner friendship.
Enter Stassie Karanikolaou.
Who is Stassie Karanikolaou?
Anastasia (Stassie) Karanikolaou was born on June 9, 1997 in California. Little is known of her background other than she is of Greek descent and grew up in close proximity to the Kardashian/Jenners. She has been a good friend of Kylie Jenner and her sisters since Karanikolaou was 11 years old.
They ran in the same circles and share many of the same high-profile friends, such as Hailey Baldwin and Jaden Smith. Karanikolaou also has an older sister, Alexia.
On her right arm, she’s tattooed a heart with Alexia’s birthday in Roman numerals.

Karanikolaou posted how proud she was of Jenner on her Instagram in February 2018, shortly after Jenner gave birth to her daughter.
Since the fallout from the Woods/Thompson scandal, Karanikolaou’s stepped in to help Jenner through some tough times. In fact, Jenner threw her friend a “Stassie Baby” birthday bash in June of 2019, and she took the opportunity to thank her on Instagram for being such a great friend.
Of course, both have blown up their Instagram accounts with photographic documentation of their friendship.
Jenner’s been calling the Mediterranean home recently, but she certainly wasn’t alone on her birthday in August. She was joined by many of her family and friends, including mom, Kris, and Karanikolaou. They must have found plenty to enjoy aboard the rented $1.2 million yacht.
