Caitlyn Jenner celebrated her 75th birthday on Monday, October 28 with her closest friends and family members, which included one of her former famous stepdaughters.

The former reality TV star and athlete shared a selfie on Instagram from the celebration in Malibu, which included her son Brody Jenner, as well as former stepdaughter Kim Kardashian.

Kim, 44, took a selfie of the group capturing the lavish affair, and Caitlyn captioned it: "Last night bday dinner in Malibu was so special. I will post more later only a few people in these pics that were there." 

"Family is everything! So many kids and so many of the grandkids, all in one place, at one time. You all made my birthday evening so special…and your beyond thoughtful and generous gifts made the night all the more fun (WOW!)! I love you all so much."

Kim later shared a selfie with her former step-parent on Instagram as well, simply writing: "Happy 75th Birthday. I love you." Fans were mixed in their responses to the rare tribute, commenting on Caitlyn's controversial statements and the brief tribute.
