Rob Kardashian was a staple on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, but he eventually chose to step back. When the show ended its run on E! and moved to Hulu, rebranded as The Kardashians, Rob was not an active part of it. He made rare appearances, but his mental health was too important to compromise with reality television. Now, it seems that his mother and master momager, Kris Jenner, has issued an ultimatum to her only son. Keep reading for more details.
Rob Kardashian Used To Pull His Weight
For many years, Rob Kardashian was an active part of the family, filming KUWTK and showing what his life was like. There was his relationship with Khloe Kardashian’s now-ex-husband, Lamar Odom, and his line of socks, Arthur George. He had highs and lows, falling in and out of love, and even having a baby, Dream, with Blac Chyna. This spawned his own spinoff, which did not do incredibly well, but faithful fans tuned in. Unfortunately, he began struggling with his weight and eventually chose to leave the spotlight.
When the KarJenners moved to Hulu for The Kardashians, Rob was not a part of the series. Fans missed seeing him and hoped that he was doing well. Now, he has started to get his life and health back on track. That being said, Kris Jenner feels it is time that he starts to show up and pull his own weight. Moreover, she believes Rob Kardashian is in a good enough place to film the show again. Per an insider:
“Kris is laying down the law. The free gravy train is over. They were all raised to value hard work, so the fact that Rob has essentially opted out of working does not sit well with any of them. For one thing, it’s unfair that they all have to work their butts off practically 24/7 and he just gets to coast.”
Everyone excused Rob while he got himself together, but Kris Jenner is allegedly adamant that he build his own brand again. Whether he wants to do that or not is up to him, but Kris could cut him loose if he does not want to step up.
Done With The Family
At this point, many followers and former fans are over the KarJenners. They believe that Kris Jenner has been the puppet master for her children for her personal gain. Regarding Rob Kardashian, if he does not want to step up, he should no longer profit from his family’s success:
- So they are paying him for not working? Otherwise it’s not their business what he does.
- They need to be done it’s time for some other people to make some money tired of hearing about the same people over and over.
- The family is vile inside and out and the mother is like a head mafia boss.
At the same time, others feel that The Kardashians is flopping in the ratings, and the only way to succeed is to bring Rob on.
