'Proud to be Armenian,' Khloe Kardashian says on Twitter

US-Armenian reality star Khloe Kardashian took to Twitter late on Thursday to share her pride of her ethnic background.

“Proud to be Armenian”, she said in her public message.

Khloe and her sister, Kim Kardashian-West, visited Armenia in the spring of 2015, just days before the country was preparing to commemorate the Genocide centennial. The popular Keeping Up with the Kardashians (KUTWK) stars visited also the memorial complex in Yerevan’s  Tsitsernakaberd park to pay respect to the big tragedy’s victims.

Kim is planning her second trip to the ancestral homeland next month to attend the 2019 World Congress on International Technologies (where she will be a keynote speaker).

The beauty mogul sisters’ father was Robert Kardashian, a respectable lawyer in the United States, who died in 2003 from cancer.
