Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 12 Episode 7 saw Kris Jenner take her big, stressed-out family on a relaxing vacation to Vail, Colorado.
Sometimes, you just gotta decompress, are we right? Not if you’re the Kards … and especially not with the drama surrounding Rob.
Clearly, we all know the “surprise” trip was anything but, and Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 12 Episode 7 would be dramatic.
For that, we can all thank the MIA Robert Kardashian Jr.
His relationship with Blac Chyna cast a pall over this entire installment, even though – or because of the fact – that he wasn’t present.
Kourtney Kardashian told the E! cameras early on Sunday:
“I think that Rob has his happy life with Chyna. But I just hope that it gets to a place where he wants to hang out with his family again.”
Despite Kris’ invite, Rob decided to opt out of the family ski trip.
In part, he bailed because of the possibility that Tyga was going (awkward), but regardless of his true reasons, it hurt his mom’s feelings.
“Making [memories] without him breaks my heart,” Kris lamented.
“It would’ve been really great for him to connect with [us] again.”
As for Scott Disick, Kourtney feared that she’d have to “babysit” his ass if he joined the family, but The Lord promised to behave himself.
“I just want her to see that I am fine,” Disick said.
Also on hand? The infamous Todd Kraines – and Kanye West, who showed us all his softer side making snow angels with North West.
“Kanye has great family morals, how he wants us all together,” Khloe said to Kourt. “I love that. It’s not at all how I imagined he would be.”
Tyga also rolled through, but the topic on everybody’s mind, even in absentia, was the man, the myth, Kris Jenner’s only son Robert.
“It’s just a different dynamic when he isn’t around,” Kim Kardashian lamented to the cameras. “It’s just sad. We want memories with him.”
They’ll remember this trip because of him, though.
In Vail, the gang learned that Rob got engaged to Blac Chyna at a strip club. “He proposed in front of her whole family,” said Khloe.
“That’s so f–ked up. Rob is such a p—y.”
Ouch. Well then. Tell us how you really feel.
“I’m not going to cover for him anymore,” Khloe said, reading about the proposal online. “What am I covering for him anymore for?”
“I don’t care,” Kim added. “I truly could care less.”
Kourtney had a different take, however.
“Maybe he thinks that you guys are judgmental because clearly you are,” Kourtney said to her sisters, chastising them for their reaction.
Calling Kim a lunatic specifically, Kourtney defended Rob in the sense that she blames her siblings, at least in part, for pushing him away.
To say the least, Kim wasn’t having it.
“That’s exactly why he didn’t tell you, because you’re a bitch,” Kourtney told Kim, but her message fell upon deaf ears – then, anyway.
Khloe continued ranting about the engagement, admitting how she felt that “someone” was in Rob’s ear, forcing him to act this way.
“Instead of sharing this with his family,” she wondered, “is someone in his ear giving him this information that he should stay away from us?”
Let the conspiracy theories begin!
