Sugar Ray Leonard | Khloe Kardashian & Kim Kardashian West – Robert Kardashian’s Daughters

It’s no secret that the Kardashian-Jenners have a slew of high-powered acquaintances. Though they are tight with a few celebrities, the reality stars consider only a few people in Hollywood to be part of their family to some degree. One individual, in particular, is such a close family friend that he has been called Kim and Khloé Kardashian’s godfather.

Leonard crossed paths with many prominent celebrities, including the Kardashians, since he was an accomplished boxer at the time. Although it’s unclear how he first encountered the Kardashians, a source claims Leonard became close friends with Robert Kardashian Sr., Kris Jenner, and Caitlyn Jenner in the early 1980s. Due to their close friendship, Robert Sr. and Kris asked Leonard to be the godfather of Kim and Khloé Kardashian, which he gladly accepted. Leonard has remained a close family friend of the Kardashian-Jenners ever since.
