Rumor Patrol: 'I pay for everything': Kylie Jenner, 17, reveals her mother Kris 'cut her off financially' at age 14... and has been taking care of herself ever since


'My mum cut me off': The teen star admitted her mother Kris Jenner stopped paying for her for things three years ago
While most teenagers rely on their parents for financial help until they're slightly older, that hasn't been the case for Kylie Jenner.
The reality TV star, 17, has revealed that she has long been an independent young woman as far as money is concerned - from the age of 14, in fact.
Speaking to UK's InStyle magazine, the teen star opened up about taking care of herself in terms of money for the past three years, after her mum Kris Jenner 'cut her off'. 
'My mum cut me off financially three years ago so I pay for everything – my car, my gas and food as well as my clothes,' she revealed.

The news that Kylie has been paying for everything herself may come as a shock to those who assume she is still looked after by her famous parents Kris, and father Bruce, who recently underwent a gender transition and is now known as Caitlyn.
However, with the fun and responsibility of buying her own stuff, the young star has admitted that she regrets many of her choices, especially those in her wardrobe. 
She regaled: 'There are so many outfits I bought in the past that I just think now are NOT cute – but there's not very much I can do about it!' 
The youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, who found fame at the tender age of 10 on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, has clearly learned from her mistakes and is now a bona fide fashion star.
Adding to her litany of career triumphs at just 17, Kylie recently launched her Topshop fashion line along with her older sister Kendall, 19.
As well as the collection, Kylie has also worked with top brands including PacSun, OPI and Steve Madden, is the ambassador for skin care label Nip + Fab and has also dipped her toes in modelling over the years. 
It has been claimed that Kylie's net worth is an estimated $5m thus far, thanks to her years of working in the industry on TV and as well as her endorsements.
Kylie's comments about being 'cut off financially' from Kris, 59, come just weeks after she revealed her big sister Khloe Kardashian is more of a parental figure to her.
Speaking to Grazia magazine, she said: 'Khloe is more of a mum to me than my mum is sometimes. My mum is all about being friends'. 
And it seems being independent from a young age has had an effect on the star, as she recently revealed in an episode of KUWTK that she is already thinking about moving out and getting her own place when she turns 18 in August.
However, she does admit that she has been influenced by 'Momager' Kris in some ways, especially when it comes to her style.
'I think my style is a little bit darker thanks to my mom,' she said. 
'There are a lot of skulls around her house and the furniture is mostly black and white. She wears a lot of black too, I think that has definitely rubbed off on me.'
Also in the InStyle interview, Kylie - who is famed for sharing rather revealing snaps of her slim and curvy figure on Instagram - admitted that she doesn't actually have to exercise. 
'I haven't worked out in two and a half years. I'm living out my youth not doing any exercise and eating what I want, which is pretty bad,' she confessed.
'I'm into yellow rice – you just cook it for 15 minutes, it tastes so good.'
