Kris Jenner’s assistant Matthew worked for Real Housewives star before reality TV icon Fri 1 December 2023 08:16 Celine Byford

Matthew Ryan is Kris Jenner’s assistant. He has held the title of Executive Assistant to Kris Jenner since April 2016, but having a high-profile, glamorous client is nothing new to Matthew. He actually left Kris for a while, having been stolen by a famous interior designer, but couldn’t stay away for long.

He’s been name-dropped on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but he’s often kept away from the glitz and glam. Matthew Ryan has worked for Kris Jenner for years. Before he became a proud employee of Jenner Communications though, he worked for The Real Housewives of Orange County star.

Who is Kris Jenner’s assistant Matthew?

Kris Jenner’s assistant is Matthew Ryan. Of course, the Jenner Communications employee is followed by The Kardashians star herself and graduated from Pepperdine University – but not before working for Kris.

He has been by the momager’s side for the last seven years, though he initially started working for her while he was still in college. The Los Angeles resident has been name-dropped by Kris a few times!

Apart from appearing on seasons 8 and 9 of Bravo’s Flipping Out, Matthew is credited as a content producer on Dash Dolls and Total Divas on E!, Oxygen’s Bad Girls Club, and MTV’s The Real World.

Matthew Ryan worked for Housewives star

Matthew worked as Taylor Armstrong’s personal assistant during her last year as a series regular on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, before she moved franchises to RHOC.

After they parted ways in December 2012, Matthew got a job at Jenner Communications, where he stayed for the next two years. He worked under Taylor for eight months from May 2012 to December 2012.

He got the job in Los Angeles while studying for his Bachelor’s Degree in business administration. Matthew later became a project manager for Jeff Lewis from 2014 to 2016.

He was stolen by interior designer

In November 2014, interior designer and Flipping Out star Jeff Lewis poached Matthew from Kris, a move he confessed to in an interview with Adweek. “We recently stole one of her assistants,” he confessed.

“And I don’t think she’s happy,” he continued to tell the publication in June 2015. But luckily for Kris, Matthew couldn’t stay away from her glamor for long and later returned to work for her.

“But he is so good. I mean, the way she’s training those guys over there! If I have to stand outside Jenner Communications and make offers on the spot, I will,” Jeff Lewis revealed.

Jeff said on his Bravo series: “Matt says, ‘I’m leaving,’ and it’s just tears. Tears and hysteria.” Matthew decided to return to Kris in April 2016, and Jeff’s business partner Gage was left crying.
