We always enjoy getting glimpses into celebrity lives, especially when they have supercute kids. We love families and seeing how much joy some of our favorite stars take in being parents. That said, though, sometimes it feels deeply weird to look at a picture of a 4-year-old on Instagram and realize they are wearing an outfit that costs more than we make in a month. Honestly, who even knew that Balenciaga and Fendi made baby clothes. (There is a Fendi infant playsuit that retails for $1,100 because apparently rich kids don't have diaper blowouts?!)
It's hard not to feel a little judgmental about how much money celebrities spend on their kids. Maybe we're old-fashioned, but it seems important for kids to hear the word "no" sometimes and to know the value of hard work. Can a person learn the value of a dollar if they've never flown on a commercial flight (because maybe their Aunt Kylie has a private jet) or if they're gifted diamond necklaces before they even know how to spell the word "diamond"?
Or maybe we are just a little bit jealous because our first car cost $600 and we never got horseback-riding lessons, let alone a herd of horses for our 7th birthday. Yes, that is a real thing, and yes, we are going to be covering that below.
North West's Herd of Horses
Look, it's a high probability that the Kardashian/Jenner crew is going to show up more than once on this list. They are so publicly extravagant with their kids, including Kim buying 7-year-old North a Friesian horse. Friesian horses, which are so beautiful, cost as much as $30,000 each. Yep, animals that cost as much as a car are a thing!
Cardi B's Kids Get the Jewels
Cardi B has been very clear that she's not holding back on spoiling her children. She clapped back at critics who called her out for getting her kids expensive bags and six-figure necklaces. "And if I'm fly and Daddy's fly, then so is the kid. If I'm wearing Cha-nay-nay, my kid's having the same same. It's not up to what the kids like. If it was the kids, they would be outside in diapers. No. 'Cause if I was looking like a bad bitch, expensive bitch, and I have my kid looking like a bum bum, then y'all would be talking s—," she tweeted in 2020.
Stormi Webster's Pricey Pony
This gorgeous white pony, named Frozen, was a gift from Kylie Jenner to her daughter, Stormi, who was 2 at the time. The horse — shown here in a photo with the breeder, who tagged Kylie in the caption — was shipped over from the Netherlands and cost more than $200,000. Wow.
Tyrese & His Daughter's Island
In 2015, actor and singer Tyrese revealed to Entertainment Tonight that he bought his then 8-year-old daughter Shayla a very expensive Christmas gift: a private island. He told the show, "Well, I just bought my daughter an island. Can't say where. She knows all about it, and the island is called Love Island." That's a hard one to top!
True's Birthday Bling
In a recent episode of The Kardashians that showcased True Thompson's over-the-top 4th birthday party (because over-the-top is the only kind of party the Kardashians ever throw), Khloé revealed that True's dad, NBA player and serial cheater Tristan Thompson, bought his daughter a diamond necklace, rumored to be worth more than $25,000.
Blue Ivy Carter's Expensive Wardrobe
Beyoncé is a fashion icon, so there was very little chance that her firstborn was going to be gracing any red carpets wearing something from the mall. Blue Ivy Carter has rocked many designer labels, including this Mischka Aoki dress that cost more than $10,000.
Harper Beckham's Artwork
There's no doubt that Harper Beckham, the only daughter of David and Victoria Beckham, is a lucky girl. Not only does she have an amazing wardrobe and get to travel the world, but she even owns a piece of art valued at more than $100,000. The painting, commissioned by her parents and made by English artist Damien Hirst, was a gift for her 1st birthday.
Penelope Disick's Fancy Coat
While Kourtney Kardashian might not be quite as flashy as her sisters when it comes to buying stuff (she is one of the Kardashians who doesn't have a private plane, poor thing), that doesn't mean her kids are lacking in fancy stuff. For example, the designer coat that her daughter, Penelope Disick, is wearing in this picture costs more than $1,200.
Justin Combs' Expensive Ride
In 2010, Sean Combs (aka P-Diddy or Puffy or Love) gave his son Justin a wildly expensive 16th birthday present: a $320,000 Maybach. We can't even begin to imagine how much the insurance alone would cost to insure a luxury car for a kid who's new to driving.
Scott Disick's Modern Playhouse
Scott Disick is known for loving several things: much younger women, flipping properties, and his kids (hopefully not in that order). He combined two of those loves when he made a dreamy modern playhouse for daughter Penelope and sons Mason and Reign that is frankly nicer than some apartments we've lived in.
Louis Bullock Starts an Art Collection
Move over, Harper Beckham. There's another celebrity kid with some fancy art on our list. In 2011, Sandra Bullock bought her son, Louis (then age 1), a $14,000 Andy Warhol print during an auction for AIDS research, but at least the auction price went to a good cause.
Coco Austin's Mini-Me
Coco Austin and Ice-T are parents to 6-year-old daughter Chanel and are all about giving her the glam life. They've shared shots of her wearing Versace, sitting front row at fashion shows, getting manicures, and generally living her best life as her mom's little mini-me — in matching designer outfits.
Reginae Carter Got Two Cars?
Rapper Li'l Wayne reportedly dropped more than $500,000 on his daughter Reginae's 16th birthday, which was covered on MTV's My Super Sweet 16 show. Not only did he have Nicki Minaj perform, he gave the girl two cars. Because, sure, a 16-year-old needs a white Ferrari and a red BMW, right?
King Cairo Gets Treated Like a … King
King Cairo is the son of two Kardashian-adjacent celebs: Blac Chyna (Rob's ex) and Tyga (Kylie's ex), and he's getting everything he wants. Tyga creepily told E! News that the then 4-year-old King "likes everything that I like: cars, women, jewelry." Yikes. Tyga further explained that he was working on trying to give his son less because King was already "very, very spoiled."
DJ Khaled's Over-the-Top Gifts
DJ Khaled has two sons, and he's very, very generous with them. For his oldest son's 1st birthday, he gave the boy his first watch — not just any watch, but one that cost more than $100,000 and was rumored to have at least 600 small diamonds on it. A very expensive choking hazard for a toddler!
