Top 13 Greatest Sibling Rivalries and Feuds Ever
It is often said that family is about love. However, anywhere, with anyone, there will be rivalries and feuds sometimes. And for celebrities, there is no exception. Sibling rivalries have dotted history in many shapes and forms. Some have gone into history and become symbolic.
Some sibling rivalries are purely competitive one-upmanship, whereas others involve money or defamation. Others pass their days in a frigid state of silence. Some famous sibling rivalries resulted in court battles, while others resulted in physical fights. Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, for example, famously got into an astounding brawl on "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."
These sibling groups not only clearly show that it is impossible to expect brothers and sisters to always get along, but they also prove that some siblings simply have it out for one another.

In 1942, the sisters were nominated for the same Oscar for best actress, which Joan won over Olivia. Following that, the latter allegedly refused to congratulate her sister on the award, resulting in snub number one. The second major gaffe occurred in 1975 when Joan accused Olivia of failing to notify her sister of their mother's death, to which Olivia responded that Joan would have been too busy to attend the funeral anyway.
For the next 40 years or so, until Joan's death in December 2013, the star sisters gave each other the silent treatment.
Britney Spears has criticized her family's role in the conservatorship, stating during her explosive June 2021 hearing that she intended to sue her family.
The book contains intimate details about Madonna's ex-husband, children, and career, among other things that annoyed the "Material Girl."
Madonna and Christopher did not speak for another five or six years but were reported "back to being brother and sister," according to Christopher, who told The Huffington Post in 2012.
However, the feud was reignited in 2017 when Christopher claimed Madonna had "blacklisted" him from Hollywood and called her "horrible."
Finally, Radar reports that the feud is now over.
The Harbaughs faced off against each other for the first time when their respective teams, the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers, advanced to the 2013 Super Bowl. The Ravens defeated the 49ers 34-31, and while Jim congratulated John on his victory, John reportedly stated that the situation after the game was very awkward.
Both brothers were fiercely competitive at first, but they quickly reconciled, and Jim stated in 2013 that their relationship is stronger than ever.
Eric Roberts had previously dealt with drug and alcohol abuse issues, and Julia supported his ex-wife, Kelly Cunningham, in their custody battle, even helping to pay her legal fees, according to E! News.
However, after Julia Roberts' twin daughters were born in 2004, the siblings reconciled.
According to People, Kelly clarified, "We don't talk." "We're just really different. I don't understand her, and she doesn't understand me."
Kim and Khloé Kardashian have long been critics of Kourtney's work ethic and "attitude," frequently accusing her of being less available for filming and not prioritizing the show.
The fight then became physical, with both sisters swinging their arms at each other. Despite the dramatic moment, the sisters appear to be on good terms now as the family prepares for the premiere of their new Hulu reality show, "The Kardashians."
The Jonas Brothers split up shortly after to follow their careers, threatening the future of their tenth album, "V." It wasn't the first time the guys separated; the band had a three-year hiatus before reuniting.
The Jonas Brothers released their first single in six years, the catchy hit "Sucker," in February 2019, along with a music video.
Phil Mahre is a more famous athlete than his brother, having finished in the top three in the World Cup overall standings for six consecutive seasons and winning the title three times.
The couple later relocated to California. They revealed the strain the split has put on Prince Harry's relationship with his brother in a shocking interview with Oprah Winfrey, which will air on March 7, 2021.
William told the press on March 11 that he hadn't spoken to Harry since the interview. Even though the brothers reunited at Prince Philip's funeral, their relationship appears to be strained ahead of the release of Prince Harry's memoir.
So it's odd that their success is overshadowed by a decades-long feud. Maxene once blamed their intense dislike for one another on too many years of working too closely together... though Patty joining another singing group in 1951 without telling her sisters may not have helped matters.
Despite their sweet trio image, Patty believed that their diehard fans were unconcerned about the feud.
All three Andrews Sisters have since died.
Serena has stated that she dislikes competing against her sister, telling Sports Illustrated in 2013 that "if I win, I'm not super excited, and if I lose, I'm really not excited."
Venus agreed in the interview, saying, "I believe we both want to win. I think we both have such high regard for each other's game that it makes it a little more difficult because you know you're not going to get an easy win."
