Rob Kardashian Moves in With Blac Chyna, Leaves Kardashian Family ‘Fuming’
The Kardashian-Jenners are never short on drama.
Days after it was revealed that Rob Kardashian was dating Blac Chyna, it appears the twosome are also shacking up together. Sources confirm to Yahoo Celebrity that Kris Jenner’s reclusive 28-year-old son is definitely staying at the model’s home in Thousand Oaks, California.
The new couple has not so coyly flaunted their relationship on Instagram and Snapchat. Chyna posted a video where you can clearly hear Rob’s voice in the background while they are working out together. Rob decided to be more blatant, sharing a shot of Chyna’s face and captioning it with a key emoji. (Key to my heart? I’ve got the keys to her place? She’s the key to my problems? So many possible meanings, so little time to speculate.)

Apparently, after Rob’s new romance was revealed, Khloé Kardashian gave her little brother the boot from her house where he had been residing. It’s no secret that there is no love lost between Blac Chyna, 27, and 18-year-old Kylie Jenner. Kylie has been dating Tyga, Chyna’s ex with whom she shares a 3-year-old son.
Chyna and Kylie haven’t spoken publicly about one another, but they have thrown plenty of shade each other’s way with various Instagram and social media digs. Chyna’s BFF (and Kanye West’s ex-girlfriend) Amber Rose called Kylie and Tyga out when they first started dating, saying, “[Kylie] needs to go to bed at 7 o'clock and relax. Tyga should be ashamed of himself.” That’s when Khloé Kardashian inserted herself into the situation attacking Rose … who to make matters more complicated and heated was spotted partying with Scott Disick last weekend. Did you keep up with all that? Clearly, there is a lot of history between the two groups.

“The [Kardashian-Jenner] girls are fuming,” a source close to the famous family tells Yahoo of their reaction to Rob’s gal pal. “No one is quite sure how seriously to take it. It obviously seems like it’s some sort of revenge plot on [Blac Chyna’s] end. And maybe a little bit on his end, too.”
Behind the scenes, Rob has had a tumultuous relationship with his family over the last couple of years. While battling depression and health issues — he was recently diagnosed with diabetes — Rob, 28, has butted heads with his mom and sisters over how he’s dealt (or hasn’t) with his problems.
“It’s not that mysterious, what’s happening with Rob,” Kim told Rolling Stone last summer. “He has gained weight. He feels uncomfortable being on the show, and that’s OK. Do I think he smokes weed, drinks beer, hangs out and plays video games with his friends all day long? Yes. [Not hookers and meth at the Ritz]… Or he’d be skinny.”
Apparently Rob and Kim — or the “b***h from Gone Girl” as he referred to her once on Instagram — didn’t speak for a while after that interview. Kim has also been vocally critical on Keeping Up With the Kardashians about how everyone in the family coddles her brother too much.
Khloé has certainly been the closest to Rob, but even she admitted earlier this month that he had “issues he had to deal with from the start that he just didn’t.”
“I don’t think he blames any of us. We talk about stuff all the time. I think Rob hit a dark place more so dealing with my dad’s death,” she told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live. “His wish was always for Rob to go to college. When Rob finished that, OK, what do I do next? He had no direction. I think he felt lost there. Then breakups and all this stuff happened, which I think added to other things in his life.”
Kris Jenner and other family members wanted to stage an intervention after Rob’s lack of action following his diabetes diagnosis.
“Rob has been lonely for so long, so of course it’s great for him to spend time with someone other than his sisters,” a source tells People of his new relationship. “Rob has also found an escape from his family nagging him about his heath. He has ignored their attempts to contact him.”

The magazine’s insider adds, “Rob likes [Blac Chyna] and seems to think it’s mutual. It’s just hard to take things seriously since obviously both share a lot of anger toward the [Kardashian-Jenner] girls. They have both had a lot of drama with Kim. Rob really seems to get a kick out of all the drama that he is causing.”

Blac Chyna and Kim used to be neighbors and were very close friends prior to Kylie’s relationship with Tyga. Clearly, the reality star chose to keep allegiance with her half-sister rather than her girlfriend … something Khloé is all about.

“Never go against THE Family,” she captioned a photo on Tuesday night.
Clearly, Rob has other plans.
