Kendall and Kylie Jenner receive apology after being handed eviction notice at New York office

The company initially claimed that Kendall, 22, and Kylie, 20, owed more than $57,000 in unpaid rent, but the firm has now performed a U-turn, putting the error down to a "miscommunication".

In a statement, the leasing firm told TMZ: "There was a miscommunication due to a change in invoice procedures that led to this confusion.

"We apologise for any negative press the Kendall + Kylie brand has received."

In fact, the firm insisted that, contrary to their earlier claims, the celebrity duo have been perfectly good tenants.

The statement added: "They have always been respectful and in good standing tenants."

Meanwhile, Kris Jenner - Kendall and Kylie's mother - recently claimed that her youngest daughter was "born to have children".

The curvaceous star gave birth to her daughter Stormi Webster on February 1, and Kris revealed that Kylie is a natural with her baby.

She explained: "She's doing really, really great! The baby's happy and healthy! I think she was just born to have kids. I felt like I was the same way.

"I wanted to have a baby when I was 16 years old. I thought about how many kids I would have. So I think that some people are just ... when you know, you know."

Despite this, Kylie has been relying on Kris to help her adjust to life with a newborn.

A source said recently: "Kris has been spending a lot of time at Kylie's house since she came home with Stormi. Kylie has been a natural at being a mother.

"However, it has been overwhelming, and Kylie has relied on Kris during these first few days."
