Kourtney Kardashian put all the marital drama aside with her younger sister Kim Kardashian on Saturday to wish the Skims mogul a happy 43rd birthday.
Travis Barker’s wife shared a throwback photo of herself with Kim on her Instagram Stories and wished her ‘first’ sister a happy birthday.
“Thank you for all the years of being in control and really listening to all my crazy ideas,” Kourtney wrote at the beginning of the photo’s caption.
The eldest Kardashian sister joked about the ongoing feud between the siblings chronicled in seasons three and four of The Kardashians on Hulu, writing, “People think the fights they’ve seen on TV are bad if only they got to witness of pulling the hair, nailing the hair’ digging up from early high school.’
With an extra dose of humor, she added, “The joys of sisterhood. I love you very much, forever and ever. May God bless this year with love, happiness and abundant joy.”

Although the mother of three (soon to be four) was noticeably absent from Kim’s star-studded 43rd birthday party at Funke in Los Angeles, she shared several throwback snaps of her and Kim in her Stories following her loving birthday message.
The fight Kourtney alluded to started in the third season of The Kardashians, after Kim signed on as creative director for a Dolce & Gabbana fashion show in Milan… shortly after iconic Italian designers personally styled Kourtney and Travis for their glamorous wedding in Portofino.
During a confessional on a season three episode of The Kardashians, the Poosh founder opened up about why she got hurt, explaining, “It feels terrible that my sister used my wedding as a business opportunity.”
Kourtney accused her sister – who is just 18 months younger than her – of choosing “money over me.” “That’s why she never really asked me. It’s not like she forgot to ask me or thought I didn’t care. It’s that she wouldn’t have known what to do if my answer was no.”
Kim defended herself to Kourtney’s face and also got confused during one of her confessionals – a rant that quickly went viral.
In it, Kanye West’s ex-wife said: ‘I got married in Italy. Do I mean you copied me by getting married in Italy? Who performed at my wedding? Andrea Bocelli. Who performed at Kourtney’s wedding? Andrea Bocelli. You stole my damn wedding country and my wedding artist. Andrea Bocelli is my favorite male singer of all time, but I’m copying her la dolce vita lifestyle? OK.’
The feuding sisters continued the drama in the season opener of their hit Hulu series, with Kim claiming Kourtney’s friends had joined her in a secret ‘Not Kourtney’ group chat on WhatsApp.
The heated phone conversation ended with Kourtney calling Kim a “selfish narcissist” and stating, “You’re just a witch and I hate you.”
Before sharing Kim’s birthday snaps on Instagram, Kourtney uploaded a cryptic post on Friday with a drawing of a girl with the caption “walking alone.”

Despite their seemingly never-ending feud, Kourtney sent Kim a peace offer in season four, episode three of The Kardashians, aptly titled A Step In The Right Direction.
After Kourtney turned down an offer from her sibling to take a girls’ trip to Milan, the heavily pregnant Kardashian sibling sent Kim a photo of their father, Robert Kardashian, who was in college.
“So… Kourtney is texting me and I feel like it’s a step in the right direction and a step towards moving past all the drama,” Kim said after seeing the family photo.
Kourtney admitted in her own confessional during the episode, “I think we’ve both said things that we’re not proud of, but anyone who has sisters or siblings knows the dynamic. You can have a crazy argument and then you know you can send each other a funny text and everything will be fine.”
