In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past week, some serious drama has gone down in the Kardashian/Jenner empire. For those unattached to their phones 24/7, here’s the rundown.
Flashback to 2013: Kylie Jenner (pre-lip fillers) and Jordyn Woods, a then-aspiring Instagram model, who, to be honest, still is one – became fast friends. Flash forward- multiple babies and baby daddies later, Woods has become acclimated to the Kardashian/Jenners by living off, I mean with, Kylie Jenner and helping her raise her baby Stormi (Travis Scott, the actual father, is on tour).
On the Kardashian side, Khloé boo’d up with NBA player Tristan Thompson. They got pregnant and lived happily ever after. Just kidding. When Khloé was nine months pregnant, reports came out that Thompson cheated on Khloé with a club employee. As if that wasn’t enough, Khloé went into labor with her daughter, True, hours after reports surfaced. They apparently reconciled in order to make their nuclear family work, something which the Kardashians are not known for. All seemed well in the land.
Early last week, reports came out that Thompson cheated again, but this time with Jordyn Woods. That’s right, Kylie’s supposed “best friend” hooked up with her sisters’ boyfriend/baby daddy. Even a week later, the tea is scalding.
Sources claim that no one in the family really believed the reports initially because honestly that’s a whole new level of messed up that even the Kardashians haven’t stooped to.
A media frenzy ensued, memes were made, rumors swirled and savage comments were left on social media. Case in point: Khloé commented on a Hollywood Unlocked Instagram post regarding the scandal with the “shouting emoji” and Malika (Khloé’s ride or die) commented “STRONG FACTS” on the same page. This more or less confirmed the rumors for every “celebrity news” site that had been watching the drama unfold.
And to put the icing on top of the hookup cake, Kylie Cosmetics slashed the price of the “Jordy” lip kit in half. If passive aggression was an art form, I would expect to see Kylie in the MOMA.
While all this is juicy – and honestly, I’m living for the drama – it should be noted that all the blame should not be placed on Jordyn (even if her name is spelled stupidly). Yes, it takes two to tango, but this is an apparent pattern of Thompson’s, who has repeatedly cheated on Khloé as well as a previous pregnant girlfriend. Although Jordyn should own up to it, it seems as though Thompson has a way of getting what he wants, even if it means jeopardizing his family. And in this situation, I think he should be looked at more critically than Jordyn.
Apparently Jordyn has had enough time to collect her thoughts because now she is going to make her first talk show appearance since the scandal broke. She’ll be appearing on Jada Pinkett-Smiths’ Facebook Watch show “Red Table Talk” (Let’s just say it won’t be a Jussie Smollett “Good Morning America” interview). The interview should be pretty interesting given the fact that Jordyn signed an iron-clad NDA with the Kardashian/Jenner clan. Talking about the cheating scandal without mentioning the Kardashians should make for a very entertaining interview.
It has also now come to light that Jordyn confided in her friends that she also hooked up with Khloé’s ex-boyfriend, James Harden. Apparently, Jordyn’s replacements for Kylie are two-faced since one of them probably told the media, which is why I, and the rest of Twitter, now know this information. Not gonna lie, Jordyn is looking shadier by the second. Why is she going after all of Khloé’s boyfriends (past and present)? Honey, just no.
Throughout the last week, so much has been uncovered, but I bet you my dining dollars that more is yet to come. You know whoever said, “truth is stranger than fiction,” well, they never met the Kardashians.
