So what did the Kardashians do for us?

As Keeping Up With The Kardashians prepares for its last ever season finale – after 20 series spanning 14 years – Closer takes a look at how the sisters have changed the face of celebrity

The cameras are set to stop rolling after 14 years of charting the highs and lows of the world’s most famous reality family, who went from wannabes to megastars thanks to their hit show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
