As far as moms go, Kathy Hilton is pretty much as cool as they come. In true maternal fashion, she’s selflessly played a supporting role as her daughters Paris and Nicky have dominated the spotlight since the early 2000s, and as her half-sisters made headlines on Real Housewives. (And as husband Rick did typical global business tycoon stuff). But after joining the last season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Hilton’s charm and humor made her an instant fan favorite, giving Kathy a spotlight of her very own—and a bright one at that. Beloved for her pranks and authenticity, the world is bound to see a whole lot more of the tastemaker, philanthropist, and expert party hostess. Ahead of this Mother’s Day, the mom and grandmother shared some of her top gifting picks for the holiday.
