Khloe Kardashian has been through a lot lately.

After calling it quits from Tristan Thompson after he cheated on her with Kylie Jenner’s best friend, Jordyn Woods, Kardashian has been leaning on those closest to her.

Not only does Khloe Kardashian have her family to help her get through this tough time, but the reality star also has a special person in her corner.

Malika Haqq has been Khloe Kardashian’s best friend for years and through all of the ups and down, she still remains by the reality star’s side.

So who exactly is Khloe Kardashian’s BFF/ most loyal comapanion Malika Haqq?

She’s an actress/model

Malika Haqq was born March 10,1983 and has always loved acting as well as modeling.

The LA native began acting in 2004 when she landed a role in the TV series Cinderella in Scrubs.

Since then, Haqq has acquired a few acting credits. Some of which many people might remember her for.

Her most notable roles to date have been playing Penny in the superhero comedy Sky High, Star in the film ATL, and Dilcy in the Sci-fi film 20 Years After.

Along with acting, Malika Haqq also has passion for modeling. Haqq has modeled for different fashion brands over the years and most recently, models for the online brand PrettyLittleThing.

She is also a brand ambassador for Khloe Kardashian’s clothing line Good American.

She is a twin

Any fans of Keeping Up With the Kardashians probably know that Malika Haqq has an identical twin sister.

Khadijah Haqq is also an actress and model. She acted alongside her sister in Sky High and ATL but gave up acting a few years back to focus on being a mother.

Haqq is currently married to retired NFL football player Bobby McCray. They have two children together.

Malika has been friends with Khloe for years

Malika Haqq and Khloe Kardashian’s friendship has gone through the test of time.

The two friends met back when they were 15 years old and instantly had a connection.

“Malika was dating one of my male best friends. He would always keep us apart because I am sure he knew we would just hit it off,” Khloe Kardashian shared on her blog. “One day we met and we did. Malika and Khadijah have been my best friends ever since.”

Ever since then, Kardashian and Haqq have been going strong and consider themselves more as sisters than best friends.

She was once Khloe’s assistant

Not only is Malika Haqq Khloe Kardashian’s closest friend, she was, at one point, her assistant.

Back in 2010 when Haqq was trying to back into modeling, she took on the role of Kardashian’s assistant for a short while.

Haqq was also seen running errands for her best friend and still does to this day.

There’s nothing wrong with being your extremely famous best friend’s assistant on the days your free!

Malika has collaborated with Khloe

In 2018, Malika Haqq and Khloe Kardashian decided to work together on something they both love — makeup.

The best friends partnered together to create a collection for the makeup brand, Becca Cosmetics.

The collection was released in December 2018 and marked the very first of possibly many collabs Haqq will work on with Kardashian.

Khloe cherishes her friendship with Malika

Being friends for almost 20 years, Malika Haqq and Khloe Kardashian have established a bond that is seemingly unbreakable at this point.

Both Haqq and Kardashian credit each other for helping them get through their toughest of times.

Khloe Kardashian has shared how much her friendship with Malika means to her and is certain they will remain in each other’s lives for years to come.

“But if it wasn’t for Malika then who knows where I would be emotionally. She’s been my BFF since we were children. Loyalty and love means more to me than anything else ever could. Fame is fleeting. Malika is not,” Kardashian wrote back to a fan who tried criticizing Haqq.

Malika Haqq has proven her loyalty to the reality star and is the first one to come to Khloe Kardashian’s defense when needed.
