Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian were all together.
The sisters were all dressed in black as they attended the fifth anniversary commemoration of the UCLA Robert G. Kardashian Center for Esophageal Health.
‘The occasion not only honored the legacy of the late Robert Kardashian but also celebrated the center’s remarkable achievements in esophageal health since its founding in 2019,’ said a press release sent to DailyMail.com.
Attendees included Johnese Spisso, president of UCLA Health and CEO of the UCLA Hospital System, as well as Eric Esrailian, MD, MPH, chief of the Vatche and Tamar Manoukian Division of Digestive Diseases, a pivotal figure in the center’s journey and a close friend of the Kardashian family.
‘Eric was one of the first people we called to figure out how we can really honor my father and what that would look like in a meaningful way,’ said Kim.

‘I’m glad that I can contribute to the conversation surrounding esophageal health, even if it’s just to bring awareness,’ Kardashian said
‘I have friends that I have referred to the Robert G. Kardashian Center, and it has saved their lives,’ added Kim.
‘It makes me proud to hear them be so grateful that they found a place that was dedicated to the one thing that would help them.
‘I’m glad that I can contribute to the conversation surrounding esophageal health, even if it’s just to bring awareness,’ Kardashian said.
‘Being a nurse or a doctor is the hardest job in the world and we respect them all so much and we’re so grateful to Eric for helping us make this a reality.’
The event took place at Lulu at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles.
‘The Kardashian Center is an exceptional example of the clinical innovation, broad-reaching education, and translational research successes that have helped make UCLA the number one public university and leading health system,’ Dr. Esrailian stated.
Further emphasizing the center’s impact, Dr. Esrailian added, ‘The Robert G. Kardashian Center for Esophageal Health is a part of a large wave of UCLA advancements, and I could not be more proud of the accomplishments and the developments that have brought us to this point.’

The collaborative spirit that Dr. Jeffrey Conklin, the center’s founding director who passed away in 2022, had instilled, was evident as Kevin Ghassemi, MD, medical director of the Kardashian Center, and Jane Yanagawa, MD, surgical director of the center, shared the platform to discuss the team’s collective advances in esophageal health.
Dr. Ghassemi reflected on the center’s progress: ‘Since its inception, we have made great strides in improving patient care in the treatment of esophageal cancer, both in the early and advanced stages through early detection. We’re seeing better outcomes for treatment of esophageal cancer and the prevention of precancerous changes.’
He highlighted the comprehensive care offered by the center.
‘We’re also providing amazing care for benign esophageal conditions such as acid reflux and swallowing disorders,’ he said. ‘We’re achieving this through state-of-the-art diagnostic tools as well as both endoscopic and surgical treatments.’
This comes after claims Kim is over the feud that Taylor Swift keeps recycling.
Swift alluded to Kim on her new album The Tortured Poets Department, but the reality star wishes she would have let it be.
The 34-year-old singer–songwriter’s fans speculated that she was gong after the 43-year-old reality TV icon when a second volume of her album was dropped just two hours after the first disc was released.
It featured a song titled Thank You Aimee — stylized as ‘thanK you aIMee,’ spelling out Kim in capital letter — which fans took to refer to Kardashian due to their previous feuding.
But a source told People on Tuesday that Kim had put the bad blood behind her — and she hopes that Taylor can learn to do the same.
‘She’s over it and thinks Taylor should move on,’ the source said, adding that Kim ‘doesn’t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it.’
Kim Kardashian, 43, is hoping Taylor Swift can move on from their years-long feud after fans think she reignited it with her new song Thank You Aimee, according to People; Taylor seen in February in Sydney, Australia

‘It’s been literally years,’ they emphasized.
However, their disagreements are allegedly still on Taylor’s mind, and certainly on the mind’s of the hitmakers fans.
After Kim appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday, Swift’s more overzealous fans took to social media to complain that the host hadn’t asked her about Thank You Aimee or their years-old feud.
‘Why not ask her about the Taylor Swift song that North will be singing!’ wrote one person on Instagram.
Another wrote: ‘Jimmy, I’m 100 percent sure you weren’t allowed to speak or ask questions about Taylor or TTPD but you could have least “slipped up” a couple of times and called her aIMee.’
One fan called the interview ‘cringe,’ presumably because Kim wasn’t asked about Taylor, though she did clear up other rumors about herself while chatting with the host.
In addition to the unsubtle title, fans believe Thank You Aimee is aimed at Kim thanks to its chorus: ‘All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F*** you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’/ But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.’
Elsewhere in the lyrics, Taylor sings about removing ‘defining clues’ about the person she’s singing about, and she added, ‘I changed your name,’ which instantly drew more listeners to the irregularly capitalized title.
The ongoing feud between Taylor and Kim appears to trace back to the 2016 release of Kanye West’s The Life Of Pablo.
In that album’s song Famous, Kim’s ex-husband raps: ‘I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b**** famous.’
‘It’s been literally years,’ the source emphasized. The feud goes back to 2016, when Kim’s ex Kanye West called Taylor a ‘b****’ and mused about the two having sex in his song Famous, from The Life Of Pablo; seen in 2016
Taylor denied giving permission for the line. Kim later leaked a version of the call in which she appeared to give permission, but a full version showed that the ‘b***’ line was never mentioned to Taylor; seen in 2015 in LA
