If you’ve been anywhere near a wi-fi signal in the past 24 hours, you’ve no doubt heard that Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian are engaged.
Blac confirmed the engagement yesterday afternoon, but even as it went from “rumor” to “real deal,” the ladies of the Kard clan remained radio silent on social media.
In fact, there are reports that Kris planned a “surprise” getaway so that the family wouldn’t be in LA when the news that Rob had put a ring on it went public.
Now, sources are saying Kris has weighed her options and decided that the best course of action is for her to try and get on Blac’s good side.
“Kris has done a total U-turn on this romance now that it’s a possibility she could profit from it,” says one insider.
“She called Blac up and gave her a groveling apology for resisting the relationship at first, but Kris buttered her up by telling her she now sees what a good influence she is on her son.”
In fairness to Blac, she really has been a good influence on Rob, who’s appeared much happier (and slimmer) in recent weeks.
Of course, this is Kris Jenner we’re talking about, so not surprisingly, the main reason she’s had a change of heart about Blac has to do with the bottom line.
“Kris sees these two as a major money-making asset for the family brand and she’s wheeling and dealing all kinds of projects for them, including their own six-part reality show and exclusives for a massive summer wedding,” the source tells Radar Online.
Another Kardashian televised wedding? What could go wrong?!
