Rob Kardashian, Blac Chyna Have No Co-Parenting Issues Amid Child Support War
Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna might be duking it out in court over money to care for their daughter — but turns out there’s a measure of peace behind the scenes. Sources connected to both parents tell us Rob and BC are a well-oiled co-parenting…
Rob Kardashian: I"m Broke! I Should Be Getting Child Support!
A couple years ago, Rob Kardashian used his pelvis muscles to thrust himself into Blac Chyna.
As a result, the former lovers now have a baby daughter together.
And, as it relates to that baby daughter, Rob Kardashian has now thrust himself back into the spotlight.
According to legal documents obtained by The Blast, Rob is alleging that he can no longer afford to pay the $ 20,000 per month in child support that he’s been forking over to his ex for the care of little Dream.
In an ironic twist, Rob and his attorneys argue that Rob doesn’t really have the money to meet this high demand specifically due to a previous action taken by Chyna herself.
Back in July of 2017, Chyna took out a restraining order against Kardashian.
She claimed at the time that Rob beat her — and, even though Rob has disputed this account, he says in these new papers that he’s been forced to lay low due to the scrutiny associated with this claim.
He no longer appears on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which had been Rob’s main source of income.
“I have not participated in the filming of any episodes since this summer when [Chyna] filed a request for a restraining order against me,” Rob says.
“Her request was widely publicized and I was scrutinized by the media.”
Adds Rob in this filing:
“It has been an extraordinarily difficult time for me emotionally and I have no desire to continue participating in the reality show.
“I would like to maintain my privacy, try to recover from the emotional damage of the past several months, and explore other business ventures.”
Based on this report, Rob had been making $ 1 million per year for his participation on the E! juggernaut.
It was on this figure that a judge declared Rob could and should pay Chyna $ 20,000 per month in child support.
HOWEVER, Rob was only paid in 2018 for Keeping Up with the Kardashians episodes in which he actually appeared; at $ 50,000 per episode.
Conversely, Rob argues, Chyna is now a “model and entrepreneur.” (And a rapper!)
He explains that she has used their romance to enhance her public persona and profile and “has appeared in the press and on social media to discuss both cases at every opportunity.”
Based on financial records, Chyna is allegedly worth over $ 1.4 million right now.
Roles have apparently switched in the past year or so, as Kardashian claims he was making around $ 100,000 per month at the time of the couple’s split… to less than $ 10,000 now.
Chyna, however, rakes in about $ 60,000 per month.
Therefore, what the heck, right?!? She should be the one paying him child support!
Rob is actually seeking to reverse their entire arrangement.
His lawyers approximate that, based on what Chyna earns, Kardashian should collect $ 2,864 each month for his 50/50 custody of Dream.
Will he actually win that argument?
Stay tuned.
Chyna’s team says Rob is “manipulating” these numbers and is not presenting a full, clear picture to the court.
A hearing to discuss this matter further has been scheduled for December.

Kate Upton Gives Birth to First Child!
The woman who many consider to be the world’s most perfect looking human just gave birth to an absolute perfect baby.
Indeed, congratulations are in order for Kate Upton:
The supermodel just gave birth to her very first child!
The 26-year old shared the blessed news on Saturday evening, alerting Instagram followers to the name and the gender of her and husband Justin Verlander’s precious offspring.
We’ll let Upton take it from here…
“Genevieve Upton Verlander. 11.7.18,” Kate simply wrote, confirming that the newborn came into official existence this past Wednesday.
She included with this message a gorgeous black-and-white snapshot of little Genevieve…
… and here it is!
Well done, Kate and Justin.
Verlander, who works as one of the best starting pitchers in all of Major League Baseball, posted a photo of the couple holding their little one’s hand.
He wrote as a caption:
“Welcome to the world Genevieve Upton Verlander. You stole my [heart] the first second I met you!!! 11.7.2018.”
Verlander also penned a sweet message to Upton after the couple confirmed her pregnancy in July.
“You’re going to be the most amazing Mom!! I can’t wait to start this new journey with you!” he gushed on Instagram at the time, adding:
“You’re the most thoughtful, loving, caring, and strong woman I’ve ever met! I’m so proud that our little one is going to be raised in this world by a woman like you! I love you so much.”
Upton and Verlander got married the knot in Tuscany, Italy, in November of 2017, mere days after the pitcher and the Houston Astros won the 2017 World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
During the baseball season that recently concluded, Verlander credited Upton for turning both his career and his life around.
Speaking to Bleacher Report about his outlook after going through multiple injuries, Verlander said the following a few months ago:
“Who knows if I’m even here if it wasn’t for her?
“I really thought it was the end. … She was instrumental in me not … like, jumping off a bridge.”
Wow, huh?
And now she’s also been also rather instrumental in Verlander becoming a dad.
We send these two our very best wishes.
