As longtime Keeping Up With The Kardashian fans know, Rob Kardashian previously dated Adrienne Bailon. He and the Cheetah Girls star were so in love, they even tattooed each other's names on their bodies. Unfortunately, the pair split in 2009 and Bailon has since gotten her tattoo removed. Now, Rob is dating Blac Chyna — and it's caused as much family drama as you'd expect. While he's seemingly taking a break from his famous fam, his sisters are spending time with his ex. Talk about shocking, huh? Kylie Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian posted pictures with Bailon on Sunday.
Kylie even included a Cheetah Girls quote in the caption, writing, "cause we are sistersss" along with a music note emoji. Meanwhile, Kourtney captioned her photo, "Reunited best friends lol." You know who's probably not LOL-ing? Rob. I can't imagine he loves the fact that he's not on the best terms with his family and they're reuniting with his ex-girlfriend. Then again, that must be similar to how Kylie may feel about him dating someone whose best friend previously dissed her. Jeez, so much potential drama! My head hurts just thinking about it.
Here are the photos of Bailon, Kourtney, and Kylie, acting like the best of friends.
Honestly, I would like to think that this wasn't out of spite and that they're actually close with Bailon. Considering she was around the family for such a long time, I do believe their bond is genuine. But let's not forget the Twitter drama that happened in 2014. In an interview with Latina, Bailon admitted she regrets being on KUWTK . She said,
To be stuck with that Kardashian label, that was so hurtful to me and to my career. I probably realized that too late—not that it would’ve affected my decisions in terms of who I dated, but it would’ve affected my decision to appear on the show. At the time, I didn’t think anyone would even care. To this day, people will still say, "You ruined Rob’s life!" and I’ll think, Damn, I was still playing with Barbie dolls when I met him.
Her reasoning really does make sense, but the famous sisters weren't having it. Kim wrote the following tweets in response:
Meanwhile, Khloé responded to a fan and defended her brother. She does say she thought they were cool though, so that could mean they really were legitimately close when Bailon dated Rob.
Kourt seemingly weighed in on the controversy too, but later deleted the tweet. The fans below had quoted the tweet beforehand, which was believed to be a diss.
So basically, I'm confused here. Does this mean they weren't cool with Bailon when she talked about their show, but now that they're not on great terms with Rob, she's back in the picture? I mean, there's no denying they really were close at one point. Here's the group posing at the DirectTV's Celebrity Beach Bowl in 2009.
And here's another throwback of them on the red carpet with Kim.
Admittedly, I'm a bit skeptical about what exactly is going on. But as long as this isn't a petty publicity scheme to get back at Rob, I think it's awesome they've buried the hatchet and can hang like old times. Because come on, who doesn't love the Cheetah Girls?
