According to People, Jenner's mother Mary Jo "MJ" Shannon was previously married to Robert Houghton with whom she welcomed the reality star at age 20 and Houghton shortly afterward. Shannon's marriage to Houghton was short-lived and the matriarch raised her two daughters as a single mom before she met and married her third husband Harry Shannon.

MJ and Harry's union lasted for 40 years, up until his death after a car crash in 2003.

Though he was her stepfather, Jenner revealed in a 2015 Haute Living profile that she considered Harry to be a father figure. She previously referred to him as "my dad" while acknowledging that his death "was so devastating for my family, " reported People.
