- Lindsay co-founded Mayflower Entertainment and worked with brands like Gucci.
The reality star pays tribute to her late friend with a heartfelt Instagram post, reminiscing about their long-standing friendship and beloved traditions by the lake.
Kim Kardashian recently honored her childhood best friend, Lindsay May Palevsky, who sadly passed away in November 2024 after battling a rare form of cancer. The SKIMS founder took to Instagram to share a series of cherished memories, marking what would have been Lindsay’s birthday and highlighting the impact of her loss on their close circle of friends.
Kim fought for months to find the words that truly reflected her sorrow, ultimately posting a heartfelt message alongside a collection of nostalgic photos and videos.
In her post, Kim described the “Lifers” group chat—which has been a close-knit circle since their Beverly Hills school days—as feeling “quiet and empty” without Lindsay. She expressed:
“I put off posting this for so long because I just couldn’t find the right words. Nothing really captures how silent and empty our Lifers chat feels without you. I know you’d probably roll your eyes at me for posting anything—especially since you weren’t big on social media—but I couldn’t enjoy this lake trip without feeling your presence everywhere.”
The tribute featured throwback clips of Lindsay laughing during their annual lake getaway, a cherished tradition that continued this July despite her absence. Kim reminisced about how those trips were Lindsay’s “happy place,” where she felt her best.

Long before Kim became a reality TV star, she found strength in her close-knit sisterhood, which she has previously called her “therapy.”
The “Lifers” group—comprised of Allison Statter, Sarah Meyer Michaelson, Ashley Kassan, and Zoe Winkler—came together at Marymount High School and have remained tight for over three decades. Kim has often credited these friends as her emotional support, even joking that their encouragement often kept her from needing therapy.
Lindsay, who co-founded Mayflower Entertainment, played a significant behind-the-scenes role, collaborating with luxury brands like Gucci while keeping out of the limelight. Their recent lake trip, filled with sunsets and children playing, highlighted just how much she’s missed:
A Legacy of Laughter and Loyalty“We felt your absence in every sunset, every laugh, and every quiet moment. Looking back at these photos from last year fills me with gratitude for all the memories we created. We miss you so damn much, Lindz.”
Friend Simone Harouche recalled a bittersweet moment during the trip when they had a cake with Lindsay’s name misspelled—a mistake they knew would have made her laugh. Kim promised to keep their lake tradition alive, declaring,
“We’ll always have the lake—and in that, we’ll always have a bit of you.”
Fans flooded the comments section with support, commending Kim for valuing friendships that existed long before her rise to fame. One user wrote,
“Love that you cherish your friends from before you were famous… so sorry for your loss.”
