A lot of men have come and gone from the lives of the Kardashian women over the years.
But through all the hook-ups and breakups, Kris Jenner has been welcoming to newcomers and supportive of guys who have been kicked to the curb.
Say what you will about Kris, she’s sympathetic to Kardashian boyfriends and she seems to understand what the sudden fame boost that comes from dating a member of the Kard clan to do to a person’s psyche.
So it’s not surprising that when Rob Kardashian started dating Blac Chyna, many were interested to see if Kris would extend the same courtesies to her son’s new girlfriend that she’d offered to her daughters’ boyfriends.
It’s tough to say, as Kris is a master of keeping up appearances, but there’s reason to believe that the relationship between Blac and the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch is more than a little rocky.
According to Radar Online relations between the future in-laws have only gotten worse in the weeks since Blac welcomed Dream Kardashian into the world.
And no, it’s not because Kris objects to that dumb name.
Insiders say Kris likes to exercise complete control over every aspect of her empire, and that includes the people her sons and daughters date.
(So maybe it wasn’t kindness motivating her to keep people like Scott Dicick close, after all…)
Apparently, Blac isn’t so big on submitting to Kris’ will – or her ideas about how Dream should be raised – and her willfulness is creating some serious friction.
“Kris wants to control everything that goes on in her family and Rob is no exception,” a source close to the situation told Radar.
“So naturally she wants to control his baby AND his baby mama!”
Apparently, Kris has even gone so far as to insist that Rob, Blac, and Blac’s kids all move in with her.
“Kris wants everything in her family under one roof — her roof!” says the insider.
Not surprisingly, Blac is having none of that.
“Chyna does what Chyna wants. She is really stubborn,” the source told Radar. “She has made her own money for so long and she doesn’t want to give up her independence.”
Of course, Kris is a master marketer who helped turn her family of unknowns into some of the most famous people on the planet, and Blac is definitely interested in a similar career arc.
In other words, money talks, and it definitely speaks Chynese:
“Nobody tells Chyna what to do,” the insider insists, adding:
“[But] Kris has a lot of power in terms of how the family fortune can be increased and Chyna could definitely be influenced by her.”
So Blac is a strong woman who will put up a fight, but ultimately money and undeserved fame will win out.
It’s the 2016 election all over again!
