Karen also claimed to the outlet that her sister would not return her calls. She said at the time,

“If you think your sister would call you back, she doesn’t,” 

“And it hurts me. I don’t care how much money you have or who you are, you’re my sister. I’m not afraid of her. … I can’t get to her anymore. But I guess it’s the money.”

At the time, she also described her sister as  “not warm and fuzzy,” adding, “She’s very serious.”

While it’s not sure whether the two sisters’ bond was mended before Karen’s death, they came together with other family members in a pic shared via Instagram Stories at Christmas of 2019.
