A lot can change in a few months.
These days, Scott Disick is dating Amelia Hamlin, and insiders say the relationship is getting quite serious.
But back when the current (and final) season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians was being filmed, he w…
Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick have been broken up for several years.
They’ve each had multiple partners since going their separate ways, and they’re both currently in relationships that appear to be serious.
But despite all of that, much has been made about what appears to be a lingering sexual tension between the exes.
Scott and Kourtney have three kids together, of course, so it makes sense that they would still be in regular contact.
But as a new preview clip of this week’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians reminds us, Disick and Kardashian’s conversations are not the kind one typically hears among co-parents.
It’s important to note that the scene was filmed before Kourtney started dating Travis Barker.
And at that point, Scott had not yet entered a relationship with Amelia Hamlin.
So when this conversation occurred, there was a chance that the former couple might attempt a reconciliation.
That never happened, of course, but the scene is all the more interesting because of the fact that we know how the future unfolded.
It’s almost as if Scott can’t bring himself to say what he really wants from Kourtney, because he knows how another go-round will end.
“It’s my insecurity, I feel like, I don’t like seeing you with another guy or a guy,” he explains.
“It hurt me when you were with somebody else and waking up to like looking at pictures of you with this guy you were dating. It was unhealthy and it made me upset and sad.”
Disick goes on to explain that his mind is only at ease during the times when Kourtney is not in a relationship.
“Now I wake up with no real problems, I’m carefree in the sense that I don’t have that, which used to take up a lot of space in my mind all day,” he continues.
“The big fear is, if you start dating again, it goes back to that, I have to feel a different way again and it’s just hard. It sucks.”
“It’s difficult,” Scott continued in a confessional segment.
“Kourtney and I basically spend 90% of our lives together, travel together, do everything together, see each other every day and the only difference is at the end of the night we part ways and go sleep in separate houses,” he goes on.
Clearly, Scott is not happy with the present state of affairs, but he seems uncertain of what he can do about them.
“This whole limbo state isn’t that cool anymore,” he admits.
And I surely don’t want us both to wake up at 50 years old and doing the same thing.”
Well, on the bright side, it seems there’s very little risk of Scott and Kourtney re-entering the holding pattern that has defined so much of their lives in recent years.
But on the down side, if Scott was secretly hoping for a reconciliation, that seems more unlikely than ever these days.
Insiders say Kourtney is head over heels for Travis, a partner who possesses the maturity that Scott always lacked.
And if Kourt ever doubts that she made the right call, we’re sure Scott’s constant pursuit of teenage girls serves as a sufficient reminder that he’s still not husband material.
There was a time when the friendship between Kourtney Kardashian and Addison Rae was the subject of some pretty heavy scrutiny.
Specifically, many outsiders assumed that Kourtney was palling around with the young influencer in order to send a message to her baby daddy, Scott Disick.
And that message was: You’re not the only one who can hookup with hot young models.
But was it all for show — or were Kourtney and Addison actually hooking up?
Or was it all much more innocent than it seemed, and this was just a case of two kindred spirits enjoying a connection?
These are the mysteries that Kourtney’s family wanted to get to the bottom of on Thursday night’s episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
“Me and Addison made a workout video together and we’ve been working out ever since. She just basically never left,” Kourtney said in a confessional segment.
“It’s just nice to have good, positive energy around. I think sometimes you just connect with certain people and we just love hanging out with each other.”
However, Kim and Khloe suspected that the situation was not quite that simple.
“Kourtney and Addison’s dynamic is just a little interesting,” Khloe told the cameras.
“Kourt’s not interested in what I’m saying but as soon as Addison would say something, she would like, listen.”
The Kard clan decided to confront the situation head-on by inviting Addison to lunch … without Kourtney.
“What the f— did you do to Kourtney to make her so happy?” Khloe asked.
“Honestly, at the beginning, we were like wait, are they…hooking up? If it was that kind of relationship,” she added, prompting Scott to chime in:
“I’m still thinking that. That was the elephant in the room…It’s OK if you are.”
“No, we’re not,” Addison replied, clearly a bit uncomfortable with the question (this is, after all, a 20-year-old woman being grilled by a family of celebrities).
“No, but it’s just very weird that that’s what the impression was.”
Later in the episode, Kourtney angrily confronted her sisters, demanding to know why they insisted on interrogating her friend.
“The people you choose, when you choose to hang out with someone, it’s like your energies align,” Kourtney explained.
“I feel like I have a young heart and old soul. I feel like we all have such a good circle of people around us, everyone is different ages, I don’t think it’s about the age, I think it’s about people’s energies and vibes.”
Kourtney elaborated in a second confessional segment:
“People seem to focus on the age gap between Addison and I but I don’t think every person needs to understand my relationships with each of my friends.”
She closed out the storyline with some kind words about the up-and-coming TikTok star:
“She’s honestly an incredible girl,” Kourtney added, “I really do like her and enjoy spending time with her.”
Well, that makes sense — but it remains to be seen if that explanation will be enough for Kourtney’s family!
On this week’s episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Khloe was dealing with social media fallout.
Specifically, Scott Disick had publicly butted into her love life.
This led to conflict between her and Tristan.
The notorious cheater confronted Khloe about why she wants to hide him like a dirty secret.
As we mentioned, it was Scott that got the ball rolling on the conversation.
He left a very public comment on Khloe’s Instagram, writing: “Tristan is a lucky man.”
As a result, Khloe received a barrage of clown emojis (mocking her for once again getting back with the cheater).
The world saw this as confirmation that Khloe and Tristan were once again boning.
Khloe felt cranky about the replies, so she deleted Scott’s comment.
And Tristan did not love the way that this looked — like she was hiding him as some shameful secret.
Scott did meet up with Tristan to apologize … after Khloe chewed him out for meddling.
“I feel bad about that comment I made on Instagram …” Scott confessed.
He explained himself: “I was just trying to make a comment I thought was nice.”
Scott admitted: “I didn’t even think twice about it. I’m always oblivious.”
That’s believable. He once posted the step-by-step instructions for an Instagram endorsement to his IG captions, by accident.
Tristan told Scott that he felt that the comment was “dope,” admitting that it felt nice to not feel like a “secret” in Khloe’s life.
“I get that she’s scared and people look at her like she’s some pushover, but she’s not,” Scott emphasized.
“If people only knew how difficult and how much you had to work,” he suggested.
Scott continued: “He paid his dues, he’s in the dog house, he worked as hard as he could.”
“I understand what she’s going through, I put her in this position,” Tristan insisted.
He clearly wanted viewers to believe: “I have to understand that, I accept that.”
“If we are gonna be back together, you’re not letting nobody down that matters,” Tristan stated.
“Everyone that matters to you wants us to be happy and together,” Tristan stressed.
“Why would you want to make another kid with someone that you don’t see yourself being with?” he reasoned.
Tristan continued: “We literally hang out the whole time like a couple … sleep in the same bed, we’re adults and we’re basically a couple.”
After conferring with Kim, Tristan approached Khloe on the subject.
“It was kind of weird for me because I understand what I’ve done to you,” he told her.
Tristan continued: “I know what I’ve done to you and there’s a lot of trauma and a lot of people talk bad about you.”
“And,” Tristan characterized, “you’re the type of person where you want people to love you and care.”
“But I feel like our bond and how far we’ve come is stronger than letting that hold us up,” he told her.
Khloe in turn said that she wants to keep aspects of her life “more private” in the future.
Khloe does not want to “overexpose certain areas” of her life in the future as she has in the past.
To the camera, Khloe claimed that she was “still pretty guarded” when it came to her romance with Tristan.
It is unclear if she meant that or if she was simply hoping that fans wouldn’t see her as a fool.
“I think you deleting that, it didn’t feel like private, it feels like you’re trying to keep a secret,” Tristan expressed.
No stranger to keeping secrets himself, he told her: “I’m not a side [censored].”
“I didn’t want to hurt your feelings and I didn’t think of it from how you would feel,” Khloe responded.
“I didn’t mind what Scott said, it was more the aftermath of it all,” Khloe assured him.
“It’s not just with you,” she added.
“My soul is at a breaking point from how much I can handle,” Khloe expressed.
She feels overtaxed “in regards to the public thinking they’re allowed to talk about my weight, my face, my personal life.”
Khloe declared that “actually I don’t want to hear that anymore.”
“My intention is not to hurt anyone’s feelings, especially yours,” Khloe stressed, “and I am really sorry about that.”
“I will try to be more aware,” Khloe vowed.
She added: “but I also have to protect my mental health.”
Parts of that seem very reasonable, at least.
For the last time, Keeping Up With The Kardashians is back.
On Thursday night, Season 20 premiered, with Scott Disick giving plenty of relationship updates.
Ultimately, he revealed that he and Sofia Richie had broken up.
The reason? Because she wanted him to make a choice, and he did: he chose Kourtney.
Earlier in the episode, Scott explained to Khloe why Sofia had moved out of his house.
He said that the COVID-19 pandemic had brought some issues to light for them and they wanted time apart.
Scott emphasized that this was not uncommon — many relationships struggled over the past year.
Scott praised Sofia as a “trooper” during all of this.
He also acknowledged that it’s difficult to date someone in his position, since he and Kourt will always be co-parents.
Later in the episode, as you can see in this clip, his tune changed somewhat.
Scott spoke to Khloe and to Kim about how he had tried to consciously prioritize Sofia.
“Even when doing that, I feel like she just started wanting to like push Kourtney out,” he expressed.
Scott related: “And I said like, ‘That’s the most important thing to me, is my kids and that’s my family and the only family I have.’”
“Including you guys along with it,” Scott added to his children’s aunts.
He continued: “And she was like, ‘I don’t want to share you as a boyfriend with Kourtney.’”
“And then,” Scott narrated, “she literally said with an ultimatum, ‘You have to choose me or Kourtney.’”
Scott emphasized to Sofia that he understood her feelings … at least, that’s how he explains it.
But he told Khloe and Kim that Kourtney will always be part of his family “unit.”
“I said, ‘How could you even want that for me?’” Scott detailed.
“It just became like, an impossible relationship to keep carrying on with,” Scott expressed.
He strongly affirmed: “I’m never going to give up my relationship with Kourtney and the co-parenting we have.”
“Nothing in a million years will be worth what we have,” Scott told the confessional camera.
“And I truthfully believe if the right person were to even come along into Kourtney’s life or my life,” Scott stated.
He added: “Us having children and having this amazing relationship would only be a plus to the outsider.”
Such an outsider could certainly exist! But clearly, Sofia is not that outsider.
“Life gets really weird when you’re living with someone,” Scott explained earlier in the episode.
“And then,” he continued, “your world just gets so small and you’re spending 24 hours a day with people.”
Scott related to Khloe: “I mean, you can look at the news and see that people are getting divorced left and right.”
“And I definitely think it did create a problem between Sofia and I,” Scott confessed at that time.
“And,” he continued, “I think we kind of saw some things in each other that weren’t us being on the same page, I guess.”
That much became increasingly clear as the episode progressed. Well, Sofia had wasted enough time dating the much, much older man.
Keeping Up With The Kardashians‘ final season is nearly here, and Kim isn’t the only one in tears.
In a new sneak peek clip, Kris Jenner is speaking to two very famous friends: Kyle Richards and Faye Resnick.
The conversation takes a turn for the worst, and Kris Jenner breaks down into tears.
It’s always difficult to say goodbye.
At the beginning of the clip, Kris sits down with Kyle and Faye.
She tells them that she’s trying to be “out here a little bit, because it’s just so relaxing.”
Despite being “so sick and tired of everything going on in L.A.,” Kris said that she “needed her girls” that night.
This is when Corey breaks into the conversation to get to the root of the problem.
He tells Kyle and Faye that Kris has been feeling “down.”
The reason? Her show is ending, and he hopes that the two of them can talk to her about it.
Kyle invites Kris to express exactly how she is feeling about everything.
This is when the legendary momager begins to break down into tears.
“It’s hard,” Kris confesses while wiping away the tears that have fallen.
Kris laments: “It’s just hard to think about the end.”
She dabs her tears with a cloth.
Fortunately, she is surrounded by friends.
At this point, Faye asks Kris “why would you stop” after all that the show has been.
Kris is the first to admit that this wasn’t an easy choice.
“It is complicated,” she admits.
“It’s all these different personalities,” Kris describes of the family, friends, and crew.
“And,” she continues, “people and kids and grandkids and everybody.”
Kris says that they’ve all been asking “thinking, ‘What’s the right thing for everybody?’ and ‘When’s the right moment?'”
“It’s been incredibly challenging,” Kris affirms to her friends.
She describes this decision to end things after 20 seasons as “incredibly hard.”
And Kris acknowledges that this is not just about her.
Kris claims that it’s difficult to say goodbye to the crew.
She correctly notes that they have all been around her since the landmark reality series premiered in 2007.
Of course, that hasn’t stopped reports that Kris treated some producers like lesser beings unfit to sit on her furniture, but that’s neither here no there.
“Everybody in this room is my family,” Kris insists to her friends.
“They’re day one, season one,” she notes.
Kris describes: “Every single thing we’ve done, we’ve done together.”
Kris lists: “Whether it’s a vacation, a birth, a marriage, a divorce.”
She explains that “everything has been so public. It’s part of our life. This is our life.”
“Telling the crew was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my whole life,” Kris alleges.
“We love each other so much,” Kris claims.
With a tinge of regret, she says: “You don’t appreciate what’s right in front of you all the time.”
Kris even breaks the fourth wall to turn to the crew and say: “I appreciate all you guys, just for the record.”
As for the decision to end it, Kris says that it was the right one.
“It’s about everybody deciding at the same time that maybe this is the moment,” she explains.
Kris says that this is the moment “where you take a minute and stop Keeping Up with the Kardashians.”
Kris continues: “but it’s been the most amazing chapter of my life.”
“We are going to have more fun,” Kris adds.
“We’re going to have more time for one another,” she concludes. “But wow, it’s been such a ride.”
The final season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians is promising a lot.
Khloe and Tristan prepare for surrogacy. Kendall has baby fever. Scott wants to propose to Kourtney.
But amidst so many happy transitions, Kim looks absolutely miserable.
Fans can conclude only one thing: we’re seeing her break down over divorcing Kanye.
Kim Kardashian has cried on camera before.
The mother-of-four has been widely memed for her tears.
This time, she has a line that goes with it.
“I feel like a f–king loser!” Kim loudly laments through her tears.
That might sound like the complaint that would come from an embarrassed teen girl.
But Kim’s situation is a little more adult and her embarrassment more public than a popular girl dumped just before prom.
On this, the final season of the landmark reality series, Kim is likely only referring to one thing.
She has to be talking about the end of her relationship with Kanye West.
After six years of marriage and four children, Kimye is over.
This teaser seems to suggest that their marriage will unravel before our very eyes.
Obviously, we all know the highlights — Kanye’s very public nonsense that drove a knife into the heart of their union.
But Kim’s private reactions? We’ve never seen those before.
Kanye’s obvious mental health struggles have been painfully apparent for years.
His lack of a filter or impulse control and his grandiose delusions are how many first heard of him.
(Particularly those who would not have found themselves listening to his music voluntarily)
Things became worse when Kanye began to be outspoken about his support for Donald Trump.
Obviously, support for the disgraced former president is not a symptom of mental illness. That stems from Kanye being a bad person.
His mental illness only made him speak of their shared “dragon energy” in such an alarming way.
Kanye’s obsession with his personal religious journey and with politics eventually spiraled into Kim’s worst nightmare.
Her husband, the father of her four children, decided to run for office.
This wasn’t a run for mayor or state legislator or even for Congress. Kanye decided to run for the presidency.
This was absurd. It was a farce.
The over-the-top ridiculousness of Kanye’s choice was highlighted by his self-named political party: the “Birthday Party.”
Kanye opted for that name because of his fixation upon opposing abortion.
Kanye lamented that children who never exist in the first place will never have birthdays.
This of course led to one of his worst moments on his mockery of a campaign trail.
Yes, even worse than his bizarre claim that Harriet Tubman never actually freed any slaves.
Kanye decided to blurt out, while weeping, that Kim had considered having an abortion when she was pregnant with North.
That’s a normal thing to consider, particularly given how early this was in their relationship.
Kim and Kanye only married in 2014, the year that North turned 1. There was a lot to contemplate.
But that consideration was Kim’s business and literally only Kim’s business.
Kanye should not have blurted that out to the crowd.
This was just one of so many incidents where Kim was humiliated and her children’s lives made worse.
While some of Kanye’s behavior is the result of his mental illness, Kim is not divorcing him because he’s bipolar.
There are countless bipolar people who do not get up to any of his clownery. Mental illness is only part of the equation.
It will be interesting to see what was filmed (and what Kim allowed to air) of her divorce process. We’ll start finding out on March 18.
One of the most-teased moment of KUWTK’s final season is becoming clearer.
Earlier trailers showed Scott Disick ready to marry Kourtney Kardashian.
Obviously, that hasn’t happened in real life … not yet.
But in this clip, it becomes clear that it could, as soon as Kourt’s konditions are met.
You know when you want to nudge your friends and sometimes you don’t have the patience to be manipulative so you just come right out and say it?
Well, that was Kim in this sneak peek for Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ final season.
Viewers want to see Kourt and Scott back together … but not as much as Kim does.
Kim straight-up asks Scott and Kourtney when they’re getting back together, despite several years since their split.
Scott allows the awkward silence to settle in before he responds.
“Wherever Kourt stands, I stand with her,” Scott proclaims. “Forever.”
“Obviously,” Khloe announces.
This is when Kourtney issues her reply.
She simply says: “That’s nice.”
Kim doesn’t falter, continuing to push the two … this time, for them to walk down the aisle.
“Can we just have a Kourtney-Scott wedding?” Kim asks.
Then, as if it would be a fun weekend afternoon, she comments: “That would be epic!”
Kim may have described a wedding like some people would describe an afternoon with friends, but others seem to agree.
“Scott, if you could just bring it within yourself to go over there and get on one knee, propose,” Kris suggests.
She then promises: “We’ll have the wedding.”
“It’ll be amazing,” Kris raves.
She then asks the father of three of her grandchildren to “Make my daughter respectable.”
Kris is obviously joking, using old-fashioned language to play off of the situation.
To hear him tell it, Scott is totally down.
“Well, I love you and I’m ready to marry you,” he tells Kourtney, as teased last month.
Scott continues, telling the mother of his children: “Right here, right now.”
Kourtney looks bemused in this awkward situation while Scott speaks.
Addressing the group, he says: “Kourtney knows that eventually we’ll get married and live a good life.”
Eventually … but not before he jumps through a few hoops, it seems.
“…Or when you wanna work on yourself,” Kourtney replies with a playful smile.
Scott asks her, seemingly in earnest: “What else do I have to do?”
That’s a fair question. In Kourt’s shoes, many would say go three years without nutting in a teenager.
But Khloe, who has always had a close bond with Scott, turns to Kourt.
She expresses her astonishment that she’s giving Scott an “ultimatum” in this moment.
Khloe asks Kourtney to reveal the details of what she wants — to list her demands, so to speak.
Scott wants that, too.
“I’d love to know what I can do,” Scott replies.
Given that the two of them aren’t married, we’re guessing that these weren’t immediately attainable goals. That’s no surprise.
Scott and Kourtney share Mason, Penelope, and Reign. They will always have that bond.
But they also have a lot of baggage. Even when things were good, they never married.
We’ll find out where this conversation is heading when the 20th and final season premieres on March 18.
After 14 years and 20 seasons, Keeping Up With The Kardashians is coming to an end.
The landmark reality series begins its final season on March 18.
In a new teaser, one month before the beginning of the end, we see Scott and Kourtney have a very real talk.
Scott tells her that he’d marry her … but we sense a “but” coming on.
A previous sneak peek revealed to the world that Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick were spotted snuggling.
That’s nothing new by itself — how else did they have three kids together?
But in the context of exes and co-parents seeming to invent reasons to spend time alone together … that’s grabbing people’s attention.
In this sneak peek, most of it’s just the usual antics combined with waxing nostalgic and marveling at their own success.
“We didn’t even think we’d get to season 2,” Kim confesses. Kris does her “party mom” act one last time.
Elsewhere, Khloe demands that everyone do that awkward performative cheering that everyone on the planet hates doing.
But in one moment, it looks like Scott gets real with Kourtney.
He tells her “I would marry you right now” during what appears to be a heavy conversation.
Obviously, the sentence structure implies some sort of conditional or explanation of why he doesn’t … but we don’t know the context.
We do of course know that gorgeous Kourtney has recently begun dating Travis Barker.
Meanwhile, Scott is entangled with the 19-year-old knockout Amelia Gray Hamlin.
Obviously, they did not get married. What fans want to see is why.
We don’t know precisely when this conversation was filmed.
But since Kim shared a tearful look at their final day of KUWTK back in early January.
This scene has the potential to hurt some feelings … depending upon how it plays out.
Of course, also contingent upon how it all goes down, the only feelings involved could be disappointment from fans.
Odds seem pretty good that this conversation will be important and heavy, but change nothing about their dynamic in any real way.
We already know about Scott and Kourtney’s current dating lives. That quells the hype.
We have to face the music and acknowledge that there are reasons that the series doesn’t have the spark that it once did.
Only one of those reasons is what every single one of Kris’ children except for Kendall is now a parent.
Life just feels different when you have a child.
Another huge factor is that fans know so much of what’s going to play out on the show, thanks to intense reporting and social media.
Obviously, the show has leaned into that, teasing that viewers will see major newsworthy events all play out … but it’s not the same.
But even Real Housewives are better at saving major surprises for when they air. Fans of the Kardashians know what’s coming.
Some fans believe that one problem is that the Kardashians are too powerful.
Housewives, 90 Day Fiance stars, Teen Moms — none of these reality stars have unchecked veto power over their own footage.
The result is that embarrassing, hurtful moments that they never wanted to play out on TV are filmed and aired.
So, no, Scott and Kourtney aren’t going to suddenly opt to get married a whopping all these years later.
And if they do, it didn’t happen last year or in January — not with Amelia Hamlin snapping thirst trap selfies at Scott’s house.
That said … there are a lot of emotions about this show, and even people who’ve checked out for years are going to want to tune in for the finale.
It is, officially, the beginning of the end for Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
Several weeks ago, the polarzing family announced that this upcoming season of the long-running reality show would mark the final run on E! for Kim and company.
We didn’t wanna believe it back then.
But now the network has released the first extended trailer for this concluding run of episodes — and it’s true, you guys.
This will be it.
The footage featured here is set to Harry Styles’ “Sign of the Times” and it’s easy to tell early on that emotions are running high.
And so are hormones, for at least one cast member.
“I just feel like it’s now time to have another kid,” Khloe Kardashian tells a stunned Tristan Thompson at one point, seemingly verifying that the couple is back together.
Before we see any more of this conversation, however, we cut to Kim… who can be seen spying on Kourtney and Scott Disick taking a nap together — and later telling her sisters all about it.
“They’re definitely made for each other,” Kendall Jenner says. “They’re supposed to be together.”
Maybe? Someday?
Except these episodes were filmed last year and Kourtney is now dating Travis Barker.
Elsewhere, Kris Jenner breaks down while telling the show’s camera crew that the program is coming to an end, while Kim has trouble controlling her waterworks, too.
Also of note? Rob Kardashian appearing in one scene, actually laughing with Corey Gamble.
“Did we make the right decision by walking away?” Kris asks in her confessional about wrapping things up.
Kim, meanwhile, can’t stop bawling while talking to the crew.
“I just want you to know that we really appreciate you guys, each and every one of you,” she says between sobs.
No word here on whether or not Kim’s likely divorce from Kanye West will be included as a storyline when the show returns in March.
“It is with heavy hearts that we’ve made the difficult decision as a family to say goodbye to Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” the KKW Beauty founder said in September.
“After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spinoff shows, we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years…
“Through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children.
“We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way.”
Don’t cry too hard for this family, of course.
They recently signed a massive deal to move their content over to Hulu.
No Kardashian or Jenner will be going broke, or leaving the spotlight, any time soon.
Far from it, in fact.
Keeping Up With the Kardashians premieres on on Thursday, March 18 at 8/7c on E!.
Watch the promo now!
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are totally getting divorced.
This is far closer to a reality at this point than a rumor.
Which is why it makes sense that the details and the drama would play out on television’s best-known reality show, right?
…
Is Kim Kardashian now highlighting that her marriage to Kanye West is on?! Last we reported, it was looking like splitsville, with a divorce destined for the couple because the relationship was apparently so torn it was hurt beyond repair. Today, however, the KUWTK star posted a a bunch of pics on Instagram and in […]
The post Is Kim Kardashian NOTICEABLY Flaunting Her Wedding Band On Instagram?! appeared first on Perez Hilton.
It is the end of an era.
First, multiple credible reports say that Kim Kardashian is preparing to divorce Kanye West for some very good reasons.
Also, Keeping Up With The Kardashians is coming to an end.
Kim has just given longtime fans a sneak peek of her emotional final day of filming for the landmark reality series.
On Friday, January 8, Kim Kardashian took to her Instagram Stories to share two videos.
“Last filming day of Keeping Up With the Kardashians EVER!” she wrote alongside a pair of tearful emojis.
We have combined the two videos here for your convenience.
First and foremost, Kim showed off her personalized microphone pack.
We also saw one microphone pack for each of her famous family members.
Kim went on to give a shout-out to all of the hardworking producers, camera operators, and crew behind the scenes.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry,” Kim reasured one of the audio techs, who has been working on the show for fourteen years.
Kim was being set up for her “last miking ever,” and there were a lot of emotions running high.
You don’t film 20 seasons of a reality series without a lot of sentiment, some positive and some negative, behind it.
“After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spin-off shows,” Kim began her dramatic announcement back in September.
The message continued: “we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years.”
The Kardashian stateement added: “through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children.”
“We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way,” Kim expressed.
The family statement also thanked “everyone who played a role in shaping our careers and changing our lives forever.”
However, they had decided to end the long-running, landmark reality series with 20 seasons.
Of course, all of this comes amidst reports — some of them extremely credible from some of the most consistently accurate publications on the planet — of a Kimye divorce.
Yes, there have been rumors for years.
But now, it appears that Kim and Kanye’s marriage of seven years is on its deathbed … and many fans of Kim feel that this is long overdue.
As it turns out, the tipping point in Kim’s marriage — according to multiple sources — was Kanye’s absolutely inexplicable presidential campaign.
It was dangerous for the country, thought thankfully essentially no one even remembered that Kanye was running.
President-Elect Joe Biden won by seven million votes. But what if the voting margin had been smaller? What if Kanye had actually appealed to people and gotten more votes? Like we said, dangerous.
More significant to Kim, of course, was some of his erratic statements.
In addition to claiming that Harriet Tubman didn’t really free any slaves, Kanye also made painful, personal comments about his family.
He announced to the world that Kim had considered having an abortion when she got pregnant with North.
That was only the worst part of Kanye’s uncontrolled rambling in very public spaces.
He called his mother-in-law Kris Jong-Un, claiming that she and Kim had teamed up to try to get him locked away.
Kanye also said that he had been trying to divorce Kim for years. Those are hurtful statements.
Kanye’s off-the-deep-end remarks on the campaign trail (okay, imaginary campaign trail) were not isolated to his family.
He announced to everyone that he is running on the ticket of his own political party.
Kanye calls it … and we are sadly not making this up … the “Birthday Party,” because he is sad that abortion means fewer people get to have birthday parties.
Kanye had been making alarming statements for years, of course, after eschewing medication for his bipolar disorder.
He even claimed in one interview that psychiatric medications were given to him to “silence” him and to make him “fat on purpose.”
While these delusions are likely the result of his mental illness, ultimately … Kim has to do what is best for herself and for her four children.
This nasty feud between Kendall and Kylie Jenner kept the sisters from even speaking to each other for weeks.
But as you can see in this clip from this week’s episode, Kendall’s efforts to reach out and make peace finally paid off.
So, a couple of episodes ago, Kylie and Kendall got into a heated fight.
The sisterly spat was absurd and seemed to arise out of nothing.
Corey Gamble was there, but that didn’t prevent the Jenner sisters from physically brawling with each other.
On this week’s episode, Kendall confessed to her family that she and Kylie didn’t speak for ages.
“It’s been a really long time and I haven’t heard from her,” Kendall shared.
“It’s really weird,” she admitted, “we’ve never gone this long without speaking.”
We also learned that attempts to make peace between the two did not go over well.
“I sent her a text and I did say, ‘So how long are you not gonna speak to Kendall for?’ and she kind of snapped at me,'” Khloe shared.
Kim had also felt her baby sister’s wrath, chiming in with: “Me too! I said it on the phone and she just yelled at me.”
Kendall insisted that, despite Kylie’s claim, she “didn’t hit her first,” adding “It wouldn’t matter because that’s not the point.
Kris, who wants everyone to just get along and make her more money, called the silent treatment “very, very upsetting.”
Khloe, still struggling with COVID, gave the sisters a life-is-short spiel and suggested that Kendall just apologize for her part so that they can heal.
For more than a month, the sisters continued to not interact … with the exception of a brief back and forth over Instagram.
Why? Because Kylie shared a photo of the two of them. She didn’t share it to make peace with Kendall, though.
As she explained in a public comment, “my titties are sitting nice in this pic.”
Kendall called Kylie, but Kylie did not answer. Only later did she call her older sister back.
“I just wanted to say that I think that the other night just got completely out of control,” Kylie expressed.
“And,” she expressed, “I just feel like I was just confused on my part.”
Kylie explained that she was confused “because we never spoke about me taking you home until it was the very last minute.”
“So,” she characterized, “I think it was just like, miscommunication,” Kylie told her sister.
“Obviously I would never do anything to hurt you and it was just crazy and it just shouldn’t have ever gotten to that point,” Kylie said.
“Yeah, I mean, I agree,” Kendall echoed. “For me, I was just kind of more in shock that all of that even just happened.”
“Kylie and I have never gone this long without speaking,” she told the camera.
Kendall added in her confessional: “Usually we talk every day, so now I’m just ready for it to be over.”
Kendall continued: “Sisters are sisters. We can fight all we want and say crazy things to each other.”
“But at the end of the day,” she affirmed, “we’re family and we love each other so much.”
“She is my partner in crime, always has been my entire life, and that will never change,” Kendall declared.
Kendall expressed: “So her not being in my life for a month and a half was not ideal because I love talking to her.”
Kylie felt similarly, saying: “I am very happy that Kendall and I could put this silly fight behind us.”
“It got way out of hand and I love my sister,” she acknowledged. “There’s no need to ever not talk for that long.”
Khloe Kardashian has found a way to distract folks from the fact that her sister hosted an enormous party amid the coronavirus pandemic this week.
How so?
By coming down with the coronavirus!
In a sneak peek at Thursday’s episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner express worry over their loved one’s health, theorizing that she has likely contracted COVID-19.
“We are just anxiously awaiting the results for Khloé to see if she has it or not,” Kim explains in a confessional, as you can see on this page.
“I mean, my gut says she does just because she is so sick.
“That really scares me for her because I can tell that she’s now getting scared and she’s really nervous about it.”
An equally anxious Jenner goes on to reveal that she’s “jumped on the phone with every doctor who would take [her] call.”
“I guess we’ll just wait and find out,” Kim adds.
Cut to Khloe, who is clearly under the proverbial weather while filming herself under the sheets in bed.
She then confirms that she tested positive for the virus that has, thus far, killed over 225,000 Americans, while also shutting down schools and businesses everywhere.
“Just found out I do have corona,” the mom of one says into the camera. “I have been in my room, it’s going to be fine, but it was really bad for a couple days.”
Khloe, of course, has since recovered from this diagnosis.
We assume, at least.
We don’t know if she has any long-term medical repercussions from the ordeal.
The Revenge Body star went on to detail her symptoms on the episode:
“Vomiting and shaking and hot and then cold. I suffer from migraines, but this was the craziest headache, I wouldn’t say it was a migraine.
“The coughing in my chest would burn … and my throat is still not fully recovered, clearly.”
The installment was filmed many months ago, of course.
In the time since, the issue of wearing masks in public has somehow been made political, while President Donald Trump is going around, saying COVID-19 is basically just a media-created hoax.
In this clip, though, Khloe makes it evident where she stands.
“Let me tell you, that s— is real,” she says.
“But we’re all going to get through this. Praying if we follow orders and listen we’re all going to be okay. May god bless us all.”
Keeping Up with the Kardashians airs Thursday at 8/7c on E!

These days, Kim Kardashian gets more attention when she’s getting brutally memed for being out of touch than for KUWTK.
But while she is happy to put her family’s show behind her, one member of the family isn’t ready to quit.
Keeping Up With The Kardashians is coming to an end after 20 seasons.
While that series finale is still a ways off, the Kardashians were quick to control the narrative, insisting that it was a family decision.
But some members of the family are offering up a dissenting opinion … quietly.
According to what an inside source tells Us Weekly, Scott Disick wanted to keep kicking the ol’ dead horse as long as it kept spitting out money.
“Scott was especially upset about the show ending,” the insider characterizes.
While stars like Kim and Kylie have vastly eclipsed the show in terms of fame, some of the secondary and tertiary stars are better recognized from TV. Scott is one of them.
Of course, the same report includes a reminder that the end of the series could not have come at a more natural time.
“20” is a nice, round number, even if this nightmare of a year has made it more than a little ominous.
But KUWTK has been renewed in multi-season chunks for years, and this was a natural place to say “that’s enough.”
“The show ended because their contract was up,” the source explains.
“So,” the insider continues, “they either needed to re-sign or call it.”
The source says that they talked it over “and it just seemed perfect timing to do it at season 20.”
In September, Kim was the one who broke the news.
The show’s 20th season will be its last, though of course the series finale will air in 2021.
Kim acknowledged that it was a “difficult decision” but one made by the family, as they had concluded that it was time.
Reports say that the stars were fatigued with the extensive hours of filming that a reality show entails.
Many do not realize this, but even just one day of filming can go on for a dozen hours or more.
Two of Kris’ daughters are now in their forties. All of Kris’ children except for the ever-relatable Kendall are parents.
They have better things to do, in other words, than film for cameras when their show’s ratings have been in general decline for years.
What’s more is that there is less incentive to film now.
The Kardashian fortunes have been mounting for the past dozen years, but they have reached a point at which even the show’s massive payday is no longer worth it.
As Kim has noted, she can make more money from a single Instagram post than she can from a season of the show.
Social media advertising pays big because people see it and pay attention.
In contrast … when was the last time that you saw a commercial on an actual television? Maybe it was recently. For me, it was in August of 2019.
So, understandably, a single Kardashian getting paid for a Twitter endorsement means a bigger payday than E! paying them from commercial revenue.
That’s great for Kim and Kylie and likely for Khloe, Kourtney (who was done with the show anyway), and Kendall.
But for the Corey Gambles of the show, it’s probably a lot less convenient. That may be what Scott is feeling.
Now, Scott is a major DILF and a genuine celebrity, but we can understand how he would be less enthused to turn to Instagram for money.
Remember just a few years ago when he accidentallly just copy/pasted the word-for-word instructions for an advertisement into his Instagram captions?
That embarrassing moment is hard to forget, and people think of it every time that he tries to sell them something.
