Kourtney Kardashian is an American socialite, television personality, model, retail and fashion industry partaker, and product endorser. She has appeared on the reality shows Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami, Kourtney and Kim Take New York, and The Kardashians. She has launched clothing collections and fragrances, and the website Poosh. She is also known as Kourtney Kardashian Barker.
Kourtney is the daughter of Robert Kardashian, an attorney who was one of O.J. Simpson’s lawyers at his murder trial, and Kris Jenner (born Kristen Mary Houghton), a socialite. Her siblings are Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, and Rob Kardashian, and her half-siblings are Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner. Through her ex-stepparent, Caitlyn Jenner, she was a stepsister of musician Brandon Jenner and socialite Brody Jenner.
Kourtney is married to musician Travis Barker. She has three children with her former partner, businessperson Scott Disick, including Penelope Disick; and a son with Travis. Kourtney’s niece is singer and actress North West. Her step-daughter is singer and social media personality Alabama Barker.
Her Armenian Orthodox baptismal name is Gayane.
Kourtney’s father was of Armenian descent. Kourtney’s mother is from a family that has lived in the United States for many generations, and has English, as well as Scottish, Irish, German, Dutch, Scots-Irish/Northern Irish, Welsh, and remote Jersey Channel Islander and Cornish, ancestry.
A 23andMe DNA test whose results were displayed on the show Keeping Up with the Kardashians (2018) stated that Kourtney’s and her sister Khloé’s genetic ancestry is:
*53%-58% European
——–*4.5% French
*41.6% Middle Eastern & North African
The test also evidently stated that the Kardashians have a fraction of Native American DNA, presumably under .4% in Khloé’s case, given her 58% European and 41.6% Middle Eastern results.

Vartanoosh was born in Erzurum, Erzurum, Turkey, of Armenian descent, the daughter of Hovhannes Miroyan and Luciag Chorbajian.

She Has Asian And Black Features. Google The Singer Named Amerie. She Looks Just Like Her. Amerie Is Half Black And Half Korean. All Three Of The Kardashian Sisters Look Like They Have Different Fathers. I Wouldn’t Be Surprised. Their Mother Is A Skank.
I agree, the main three all look a bit different from one another. I see the Armenian at all times, but ‘the other’ is always a guess.
Many Armenians have this kind of eye shape
CORRECTION:
Kourtney Kardashian is not white at all. Her mother is full-blooded Armenian, as is her father. It’s impossible to be turkish-Armenian and Russian-Armenian considering the fact that Armenia is its own country, not a type of people migrting around in eastern europe. It’s not even in europe, its in the middle-east- more in the asia/africa region.
No Armenia Is a European Country. Ignorance
Still not white.
@Jrose10,
No Armenia is a Eurasian Country. Ignorance
stop wanting to be european

Clearly she is not white.Brown skin and facial feactures of a Indian woman. She is what we called in Europe(South Asia race mixed). Indians are also consider Asians in Europe.
