Kourtney Kardashian seems to be the star of the 15th season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, what with the recent drama surrounding her assertion that she doesn't want to be part of America's most famous family anymore.
Certainly, while Kourtney is known to be the more laid back of the five sisters, she's braved her fair share of tabloid attention, especially when it comes to her (previously) on-again-off-again relationship with Scott Disick. And lately, it appears as if the Kardashian name has been bringing the mother-of-three more grief than joy.
Judging by the teaser for Sunday's episode, this purportedly has something to do with Kris Jenner, and the affair she had nearly 30 years ago.
The clip shows Khloé trying to resolve an argument between Kourtney and Kris, which stemmed from the 39-year-old's frustration at her mother's past. Previously, the "momager" revealed that her marriage to Rob Kardashian Sr. - father to Kourtney, Kim, Khloé and Rob - broke down in 1991 partly because of her affair with a man named Todd Waterman.
"You don't give mum the benefit of the doubt ever—from your childhood—and it's really unfair," Khloé told Kourtney. "You only remember with Todd or this or that."
Kourtney then denied that the affair has affected her relationship with her mother, saying "I don't sit there and dwell about Todd."
Kris attempted to compare her infidelity to Kourtney having a relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Younes Bendjima, while co-parenting her three children - Mason, Penelope and Reign - with her former partner, Scott Disick.
Naturally, this did not go down well with Kourtney. "I don't [have my own Todd.] I'm actually not married, and I'm not having an affair. You can't compare one to the other. That's absolutely not true," she responded.
Earlier in the series, Kourtney contentiously told Kim that she doesn't want to be a Kardashian anymore. Kim proceeded to inform Khloé, who responded by saying that her sister "can shove Kardashian up her f*cking vagina".
This remark most probably had something to do with the fact that Kim and Kourtney had an argument at the beginning of the episode - which culminated in Kim ordering her older sister to leave her Calabasas mansion.
In other Kardashian-related controversy, the sisters have reportedly cut ties with their longtime makeup artist and friend, Joyce Bonelli. Bonelli has been working with the Kardashians since before they were breaking the internet, and last year she asserted that they "text every other day", and "they're like my sisters". Now, however, a source has told US Weekly that not only has she not "worked for them for months" but that "the family doesn't speak to her anymore".
After doing a little snooping, it's apparent that the Kardashians don't even follow Bonelli on Instagram anymore, even though she still follows the family and posts about them occasionally.
But apparently, it's not quite what it seems. According to the US Weekly source, "They just stopped working with her because they didn’t see it as a right fit anymore."
Never an ordinary day in the Kardashian family, eh?
