Khloe Kardashian will always be there for her sister.
After Kylie Jenner spoke out on the “pain” of losing her longtime hairstylist Jesus Guerrero—who passed away last week at the age of 34—the Good American founder showed support for her sibling with a touching message.
“I am so so sorry my sweet Kylie,” Khloe commented under her sister’s Feb. 25 tribute. “I know how devastated you are and have been.”
And while the 40-year-old shared that she wished she “could take the pain away from you,” she also emphasized that Kylie’s heartbreak had a bittersweet meaning.
“Grief is in a way, [a] form of love,” Khloe continued. “Know you both loved one another so so deeply. I love you so much.”
And several of Kylie’s close friends also made it clear that they would be a shoulder for her to lean on.
Pal Stassie Karanikolaou simply commented, “I love you,” while makeup guru James Charles noted that she wrote “such beautiful words” about Jesus and added, “sending my love.”
Jesus’ passing was announced on Feb. 23 by his sister Gris, who shared the tragic news on a GoFundMe page.
“It is with a heavy heart that we let the world know that Jesus Guerrero has gone to heaven,” she wrote at the time. “He is a son, a brother, an uncle, an artist, a friend, and so much more.”
Since the announcement, Kylie has been one of several stars to honor the late stylist—who, in addition to the Kylie Cosmetics founder, worked with stars such as Katy Perry, Dua Lipa, Rosalía, Jessica Alba, Demi Moore and Jennifer Lopez.
“Jesus was more than my friend—he was a light in my life, a source of laughter, comfort, love, and unwavering support,” Kylie wrote in her Feb. 25 Instagram, alongside a carousel of photos and videos of her and Jesus together over the years. “I don’t know how I would have made it through the last almost decade without him by my side.”
Noting that Jesus “had a way of making even the heaviest days feel lighter,” Kylie thanked the hair guru for “always being there for me, for lifting me up, for being my friend.”
“You were the best person, with a talent that was unmatched,” she added. “A true artist. You inspired so many, and you always will.”
