And according to an E! News source,“Kendall was really engaged in the game.” She was so into it, “She would stand up and cheer every time Devin scored...it was so cute! She had her hands on her head at the end of the first quarter!” But that's not all—Kendall also “was jumping around so much and got hot and took off her jacket.”

And this time we have a straight-from-the-source reason as to why Kendall and Devin are keeping their relationship private! Kendalls hops on the KUWTK reunion and says that keeping her ’ships out of the public eye has “always worked better for me that way,” she says, adding, “No offense to my older sisters at all, but I think that Kylie [Jenner] and I specifically have had the opportunity to watch our older sisters go through marriages and relationships and breakups and do them pretty publicly. It was a personal preference from a really young age.…I think it makes my life a lot easier and our relationship a lot better, to be honest. I just feel like it’s a private matter and not for anybody else to judge or know.”

Us Weekly reports that Kendall and Devin are lowkey living together, with a source saying, “He’s practically moved in with her.”
“They really respect each other’s careers and give each other space to focus on her modeling or his basketball career,” the source adds. “That’s probably what makes their relationship work so well is that they have that work-life balance.”
In other words, Things! Are! Serious!

Don’t expect Devin to make any cameos in the new KUTWK that’s set to air on Hulu— KUWTK executive producer Farnaz Farjam told Bravo’s The Daily Dish podcast that Kendall has a strict no-boyfriend rule to make sure the dudes she’s with are staying with her for her and not television fame.
“Kendall’s always had this rule—she just felt like she had to be with someone for at least a year before she lets them be a part of the show, because she doesn’t always know what people’s intentions are,” Farjam explained, via Us Weekly. “So that’s why we kind of kept her personal life out of it, just because she had a rule.”

Kendall celebrates her and Devin’s one-year anniversary in the best way she knows how: by posting super-cute pics of her and Devin to her Instagram Stories, of course!

Kendall and Devin do what all helplessly rich couples in Los Angeles do—go to fancy dinners at Nobu. Around this time, paparazzi also catch them running errands together, and an E! News source has thoughts about it.
“It was a very casual outing, but it seems they are spending more time together for sure and getting closer,” the source says.

Welp, Kendall and Devin are spotted on a road trip together…in Sedona, Arizona…and TMZ has picture proof. Witnesses who spot Devin and Kendall say they certainly look like a couple during their little rest stop, but a source close to the two says that isn’t exactly the case.
“Kendall and friends have a small social circle amongst the group, who have been following the same social distancing and physical distancing guidelines. Devin is a friend and is part of the small group,” the source says, adding that “they took a road trip for some much-needed air.” Cool-cool-cool.
This same day, the internet is set ablaze with rumors of their possible romance. A very sexist Twitter user makes an unnecessary comment about Kendall’s private life after video of her and Devin’s outing makes the rounds, which she has the most iconic response to:
they act like i’m not in full control of where i throw this cooch https://t.co/DOCPKMdW6K
