The reality TV star and her BFF, Stassie Karanikolaou, wore similar leather jackets and posed for a series of IG photos.

Step aside, Travis Scott. Kylie Jenner knows that best friend love beats all other types of love.

The reality TV star shared a series of photos with Anastasia (Stassie) Karanikolaou for Valentine’s Day. The two posed on an outdoor basketball and tennis court wearing leather jackets and dark blue jeans. Jenner wore a black crop top underneath and left her long black locks loose, while Karanikolaou slicked her hair back into a bun and sported a gray shirt.

“forever valentine ♾️,” the 25-year-old captioned her Feb. 14 post that was shared with her 380 million followers.

“forever & then some 🌹,” Karanikolaou responded.

In the first pic, the mom of two leaned over and whispered something in her friend’s ear. The second snap showed the two as they covered their mouths with one finger and looked at each other as if they were keeping a secret. They hugged in the third photo as Jenner kissed Karanikolaou’s cheek and they pecked each other on the lips in the fourth snap. The final slide was an adorable candid photo of the two laughing.

“besties forever 🤍you two 😍😍,” Maguire Amundsen gushed in the comments.

“if y’all don’t kiss ur best friends are you really best friends,” one fan quipped.

Jenner’s Valentine’s Day post caused fans to further speculate about the status of her relationship with rapper Scott, with whom she shares her two kids, Stormi and Aire. Scott is known to go all-out for the holiday, and Jenner is always a fan of sharing subtle snippets of her romantic life on social media—which she didn’t do this year, and it certainly didn’t go unnoticed.

The duo have been friends for ages, and the Kylie Cosmetics founder launched a collab called the “Stassie X Kylie” mini collection with Karanikolaou in June 2002.

Karanikolaou, also a model and influencer, recently went Instagram official with her boyfriend, musician Jaden Hossler.
