What’s up?
It’s Emile Ennis Jr. here with Clevver News and while we all know that Kourtney Kardashian
is taking a step back from Keeping Up With The Kardashians, news just broke that Rob
Kardashian will be making his return to the show.
If you’re a Kardashian fan, you know that Kourtney announced she will be limiting her
time on the reality show going forward.
“For now I’m just going to take control of my schedule back.
I just want to feel fulfilled and happy life is too short.”
Kourt also spoke to Vogue Arabia saying quote, “I have been filming the show non-stop for
14 years…
I was feeling unfulfilled and it became a toxic environment for me to continue to have
it occupy as much of my life as it was.
Privacy is something I have come to value and finding that balance of private moments
with being on a reality show is hard.
People have this misconception that I don’t want to work, which isn’t true.
I am following my happiness and putting my energy into that which makes me happy.”
And while some fans were bummed that Kourtney won’t be on the show as much in future episodes,
Khloe Kardashian just made a big KUWTK announcement on SiriusXM’s show The Morning Mash Up.
She revealed that their brother Rob Kardashian is coming back to the show next season.
Khloe said quote, “My brother's coming back around, like he's feeling more confident and
comfortable, I think, you know, he just started a new season.”
As longtime Keeping Up fans know, Rob used to be on the show a lot, often providing some
comedic relief from the drama with Scott Disick and the sisters.
But by season seven Rob became a very minor player in Kris’ reality TV game.
He still made some appearances on the show and in 2016 he even got his own spinoff, Rob
& Chyna, with then fiancé Blac Chyna with whom he shares their daughter Dream.
Unfortunately though, Rob had a messy split with Blac Chyna that led to him getting into
trouble with the law after he shared revenge nude photos of Blac Chyna on Instagram.
There has also been a long custody battle over Dream and amid all of this legal drama,
Rob stepped back from filming KUWTK altogether.
During this time, Rob not only stopped filming the show, but he stopped making public appearances
with his family.
He took some time away from the spotlight, and according to The Daily Mail, his family
members have said that he was dedicating himself to a healthier lifestyle that included partying
less and exercising more while also watching his diet.
In March Rob dropped a hint on Twitter that he was returning to the show when he said,
“My sisters forgot we were filming #KUWTK and thought it was bad girls club.”
The fact that he used the word “we” made many fans think he was back on set of the
reality show and filming again.
Then in June, Rob was spotted at Khloe's birthday party which definitely could’ve been filmed
for the upcoming episodes of Keeping Up.
Now after Khloe’s official confirmation of Rob’s return, fans are taking to Twitter
to share their thoughts on Rob coming back to the show.
One person wrote quote, “The hero we didn’t know we needed”
This person added “Is it bad i kinda wanna tune in now since he’s back ?”
And this fan said “I'm here for Rob coming back to #KUWTK now that he's happier and healthier.
I feel like he will be more fun than Kourtney on the show anyways.
nooo shade tho!”
But others questioned if Rob was just coming back for the paycheck.
I guess we'll just have to wait and see how involved Rob is on the show and what his story
line will be.
But regardless, we’re just glad he’s in a good enough place to want to start filming
again.
Khloe didn’t just talk about Rob’s return in her radio interview.
She also answered the question that is on many fans’ minds... is their reality show
going to go on forever?
Khloe explained that at the end of every season they feel like everything is covered and there
is nothing more to film, but then something crazy happens and they end up having more
to cover.
She said quote, “We always say when it becomes un-fun and we are dreading doing something
then we will give it up.
It's not going to last forever, we know that, we're so OK with that.”
All good things must come to an end eventually I guess, but it doesn’t seem like that’s
going to happen any time soon for Keeping Up With The Kardashians as she show is set
to return in September.
