They had Paris and Nicky Hilton, early 2000s socialites, during their decades-long marriage. Barron and Conrad were the couple’s two sons.

We’re on the phone, but you should know that I’m their mother. That thin line exists.” The four kids’ mother continued, “I am extremely rigid. I dial my daughter’s number and tell her to stop talking because I’ve had enough. You ought to stay at home.”

In an interview with TooFab in 2011, Kathy stated, “My kids weren’t overly spoiled. “Their beds needed to be made. Their shoes needed to be lined up.” She continued by stating that Paris and Nicky each paid for a portion of their vehicles, which they did not acquire until they were 19 and 20, respectively.

The Hiltons are expecting another grandchild in the coming months. Barron and Tessa, their son, are expecting their second child after the birth of their daughter Milou Alizée in 2020.
