Kylie Jenner swapped former best friend Jordyn Woods for Stassie Anastasia Karanikolaou. Who is ‘Stassie Baby’ behind the pics?
Kylie Jenner, like most little girls, was close to her family and young friends as she grew up. But as she blossomed into her teens, Jenner found one peer who she quickly turned into her best friend forever (BFF).
Jordyn Woods and Kylie seemed inseparable, vacationing together, doing projects together, living together. Woods became so close to the Keeping Up With The Kardashians clan that all the sisters joined in viewing her as sort of an unofficial relative.
And then came the scandal.
Why Kylie Jenner kicked ‘my girl’ BFF Jordyn Woods from her life
Kylie and Jordyn spent time together just before Woods and Khloe Kardashian boyfriend/baby daddy Tristan Thompson were seen canoodling together at a party, reported Us Weekly.
But it took only one viral cheating session to destroy the friendship that Jordyn and Jenner had enjoyed for years.
The two were so bonded that their vacations together seemed like the new generation of Kardashian-Jenner sisters’ girl trips, complete with baby.
As evidence, Kylie even referred to Jordyn and her daughter as “my girls” in an Instagram caption.

“Khloe is completely devastated,” a source told the publication. “This is out of character for Jordyn and no one expected this to happen.”
Kylie and Jordyn had been so close that even the Kardashians weren’t certain that Jenner would shun Woods. However, pressure from her sisters became too much for Kylie to handle, added the insider.
"At this point, the Kardashians aren’t 100 percent sure if Jordyn is going to be cut out of Kylie’s life. But they’re all looking at it as if she better be. It will be hard for Kylie to lose Jordyn because she’s her best friend. She doesn’t have a lot of friends and honestly can’t because of her lifestyle, so she has latched onto Jordyn."
But one canoodling session between Woods and Thompson caused the pressure from Camp Kardashian to be too much for Kylie to handle.
Khloe, in particular, and her own best friend, Malika Haqq, agreed that “Jordyn is disgusting and complete trash.”

Khloe Kardashian made her approval clear, writing in the comments section of the above photo, “Honestly I don’t even know what to say?! I can’t handle this much perfection in one photo.”
As for fans? Some seem upset by what they see as the woman getting blamed for what the man instigated. Others have taken the stance that while yes, Jordyn made a mistake, it wasn’t as significant as the Kardashians made it seem.
And some trolls seem focused on picking on the duo, accusing both of plastic surgery.
Who is Anastasia “Stassie” Karanikolaou?
Kylie and Stassie have been friends for about ten years, according to Us Weekly.
Known as a YouTube star, Stassie has gotten renewed attention from Jenner in the wake of Jordyn Woods’ scandal.
Kylie gave a birthday party for Stassi, and recently revealed in a throwback Instagram session that she told her new BFF about her pregnancy before it went public.
In addition to offering everything from fashion tips to makeup advice and food challenges on YouTube, Jenner’s new BFF collaborates with an online clothing boutique, Oh Polly. She adores animals (just like Jenner) and owns two horses and a dog.
And, yes, she’s become part of the family, posing for Khloe’s clothes brand Good American. Kylie also has found another BFF who enjoys sports.
