THE KARDASHIANS have experienced several Easter-related controversies in recent years, including backlash over “wasteful,” wealth-flaunting parties to criticism about snubbed Easter baskets.
And with Easter being celebrated this weekend, now seems like an appropriate time to revisit the reality TV stars’ holiday-related mishaps.

Because whether it’s forgotten baskets or forgotten guests, Kardashian critics will be sure to make their opinions heard on the matter.
EASTER EXTRAVAGANZA
Last year, Kris Jenner, 67, hosted the family’s lavish Easter party, which included an over-the-top food and dessert spread as well as an art station for her grandchildren.
The festivities, which began on Saturday, continued on Sunday for the actual holiday with more food spreads, an egg hunt, and gifts for the kids.
It was that last part that fans seemed to take issue with, with the famous family flaunting their substantial wealth by giving out quite a few presents.
To start, the seat placements at the dining table were designated by giant chocolate eggs with a name on each for Kris’ grandkids.
The list of grandchildren included: Stormi, five, True, four; North, nine, and Chicago, also five.

Also included were Saint, seven; Psalm, three, Mason, 13, Penelope, 10, Reign, six, and Dream, five.
Kris’s daughter Kim Kardashian, 42, showed off the massive gift baskets that were individually wrapped for each of the little ones on social media.
The Skims founder stated: “A basket for each kid,” before rhetorically asking, “How amazing is my mom?”
Next to the containers sat even more presents.

Kim provided a look at the huge pink, purple, and teal gumball machines given to each of the kids as well as their brand-new bikes.
The Hulu star told her followers, along with the video: “Look at this, this is insane.”
Fans on Reddit were quick to agree, calling all of it “really excessive.”
Kylie Jenner, 25, shared a photo of the candy machines where she admitted that she “had to get these for my girls.”
FAN REACTION
Fans didn’t think it was necessary though, with one sarcastically writing: “Because why teach these kids to share.”
Another Redditor stated: “It’s so over the top. I’m over these ostentatious displays of wealth.”

A third commented: “This is completely obscene.”
Others called it “so extra” and “unnecessary,” as it was all about flaunting their “privilege and excess.”
Along with the abundance of gifts, fans thought the entire party was too extravagant, as well, saying that it seemed “so wasteful.”
Mainly, they took issue with the momager’s large dessert table, filled with bunny cookies of various colors, a giant bunny cake, a massive Easter egg cake, and cupcakes – with eggs, peeps, and bunny ears as decorations.
One Reddit user said: “Really, really pretty. But I always wonder how much of that stuff actually gets eaten and how much lands in the bin.”
A second agreed and wrote: “I hope they let the staff get the leftovers or they donate them,” before adding “The Kardashians aren’t known for being generous or giving back so who knows?”
‘SO BEAUTIFUL’
Kim and Khloe Kardashian, 38, provided an inside look at the Easter event with stunning photos and videos the day before.
Kim shared that her mother went all out for the occasion, making sure everything was set up beautifully and was on theme.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum star posted a clip on Instagram of the main table, which featured Easter egg plates with bunny clasps keeping napkins folded together on top of them.
The dinner settings sat atop bright yellow placemats across the long, dark wood table.
In the middle, glass jars were filled with eggs and bouquets of pink and white flowers, while bundles of carrots were placed all around them.
Kim gushed: “How cute is my mom?
“This is how she sets up her table. How cute?”
The TV personality then went over to show off the table that was set up for all the kids.
The children all got green paper plates with bunnies on them, paper carrot decorations for their silverware to sit atop, and pink and yellow flowers as their centerpieces.
The 42-year-old continued: “How cute is the kids’ table?”
As she moved to showcase what the Kardashian clan would be nibbling on, she scanned the whole of the charcuterie table.
The set-up was filled with veggies, fruits, an assortment of bread, crackers, and cheeses of all kinds.
Kris had even made sure to use a knife with a bunny on it for the cheese.
“This situation is so amazing,” Kim said. “It just looks so beautiful.”
LEFT-OVERS?
While Kris went all out for the family’s holiday party, the former E! star faced criticism for her Easter gift to Kourtney Kardashian’s future stepdaughter after spoiling her grandkids with numerous presents.
Kourtney, 43, and her then-fiancé-now-husband, Travis Barker, 47, brought their combined six children to the Sunday feast.

Travis’ son Landon, 18, brought along his buddy Carl Dawson and the rocker invited his step-daughter, Atiana De La Hoya.
One fan screenshotted Carl’s story from the day, a photo of Atiana opening her Easter basket filled with gold eggs and chocolate.
They also snapped a photo of Carl’s basket, outfitted with a brand-new pair of Bottega Veneta boots.
The user shared the post to Reddit, captioned: “Now why did Kris Jenner stuff Atiana’s Easter basket with the same Skims top in 8 different colors but gave Landon’s best friend a pair of Bottega Veneta boots?”
Others raced to the comments to rip Kris for the uneven gift-giving to her young guests.
“Am I supposed to feel bad about what the future stepkids are getting at the world’s most extravagant easter? Pass,” one ranted.
“It’s just whatever freebies that have that they don’t want or use,” a second speculated.
A third guessed: “I’m sure they all got the same stuff. But they have to show all the kids opening different stuff so they can ‘thank’ and tag the brands that sent all this free swag over to Kris Jenner.”
“That would make me so sad. Maybe she got more stuff that wasn’t shown,” another hoped.
“Because boots were probably free just like Skims were,” a final commenter trolled.
CAN’T IGNORE A BARGAIN
Again last year, Kylie shocked fans in a good way with the price of an Easter pillow.
It seems even the Kardashian family isn’t above a good Home Goods holiday bargain.

Kylie posted a photo of an adorable Easter throw pillow on her story.
Four silhouetted bunny rabbits were embroidered onto a grey throw pillow with four white, fluffy pom-poms attached to the back as their tails.
As Kylie showed off the decorating detail inside of her $36M LA mansion, the brand of the item shocked most fans.
The makeup mogul has been under fire for “flaunting her wealth” by posting photos of pillows, blankets, and other decor items worth thousands of dollars.
However, Kylie seemed to have snagged this adorable item from Home Goods.
The throw pillow is listed on Home Goods’ website for $16.99 and was even marked down to $12.00, which is a huge price drop from Kylie flaunting a teddy bear worth $20K in her new son’s nursery.
SEA-YA LATER
Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-partner Scott Disick was snubbed by her family once again when he was left out of their Easter celebration.
The 39-year-old recently opened up about feeling excluded from all things Kardashian amid his baby mama’s then-engagement to Travis Barker.
Kourtney, along with her sisters Kim and Khloe, shared photos and videos from their family’s lavish Easter party on Saturday, but Scott was noticeably absent.
As mentioned, the affair, hosted by matriarch Kris, featured an elegant dining set-up, a large spread of bread and cheeses and veggies, a table filled with various desserts, and an art station.

While the whole Kardashian clan shared footage of their time together, Scott’s social media post of his day showed that he was far away from the others.
The father of three wasn’t even on land, as he shared a photo of himself in a speed boat out on the water.
The shot featured just the front of the boat, along with a bit of the cityscape in the background and bright, blue skies.
Scott simply captioned it: “Cig.”
The second photo he shared was a close-up of an engraved team logo.
It read: “World Champion Racing Team, CIGARETTE.”
Scott has often proved that he’s a fan of Cigarette boats, as he’s posted photos of them on his Instagram before.
TRUE’S EASTER BIRTHDAY
Khloe pulled out all the stops for daughter True Thompson’s second birthday bash.
The 38-year-old revealed she is organizing an Easter egg hunt for True, whose birthday fell on Easter Sunday, and while be doing other egg-related activities, including dyeing eggs.

Revealing True’s birthday plans during an Instagram Live, Khloe told Good American co-founder Emma Grede they’re going all out for the joint celebration.
She said: “She’s never had like an Easter egg hunt because she’s always been too young, so I’m going to do fun things that’s engaging and different for her.”
Although her famous aunts and cousins won’t be able to join, Khloe explained she’s organizing fun activities True’s “not used to” so it still feels like a special celebration.
She added: “It will be really fun for her”.
SUNNY EASTER
Easter celebrations with the Kardashian-Jenners were a mix of sweet treats, slime, and a bikini-clad trip to the beach.
Two years ago, Kylie gathered to celebrate with her mom Kris, alongside older sisters Kim and Khloe Kardashian.
Kylie shared a video of cupcakes covered in iced chicks, bunny ears, and chocolate eggs, as well as brightly colored cookies.
But when she set her eyes on two full-sized cakes, she said: “These are cute. You really went crazy today Mom – and it’s not even Easter yet.”
Kylie then praised her three-year-old daughter Stormi’s attempt at making glitter pink slime.
Khloe also shared similar pictures on her Instagram Stories, with her daughter True, getting her hands dirty at the slime station.
The action then quickly switched to the adults shedding their layers to hit the beach to catch some rays.
Kylie showed off her toned abs in a brown string bikini before sharing a laid-back snap of her with Kim laying on sun loungers.
