Summary: Blac Chyna is suing Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, and Rob Kardashian because her reality show was canceled.
Blac Chyna is not happy with the Kardashian-Jenner family. The reality star originally filed a lawsuit against each member of the glamorous clan (except for estranged Caitlyn Jenner), but this week, she filed a motion to remove Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kendall Jenner from the case. That means she is only suing her ex-boyfriend Rob Kardashian and his sister Kim Kardashian and their mother Kris Jenner.
Chyna, who is represented by Lisa Bloom, claims that the Kardashian-Jenner family used their power to get her reality show Rob & Chyna canceled. The show documented her 2016 relationship with Rob, but the originally happy concept soured when the two’s relationship fell apart.
Insiders stated that E! Network did not want to do a show about their troubled union, which has resulted in accusations of cheating and domestic violence. However, Chyna believes that the show could’ve got a second season if it weren’t for Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian, who Chyna said smeared her reputation and made a call to get the show off air.
“We recently filed an amended complaint to narrow the issues and parties in the case, which is about slut-shaming, revenge porn, and killing Chyna’s show after she broke up with Rob,” Bloom said in a statement to Us Weekly. “We will continue to aggressively fight for Chyna’s rights as the case proceeds.”
Chyna is also suing Rob Kardashian for battery. She claims that he had pushed her to the ground in front of her 5-year-old son that she shares with rapper Tyga, who also dated Rob’s sister Kylie Jenner.
Us Weekly stated that Rob has filed his own battery lawsuit against Chyna, who he has one child with. In his lawsuit, which was filed in September, he said that Chyna is trying to shake down his mega-wealthy family.
Chyna, real name Angela White, has already battled the Kardashian women in court and lost. Last April, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe successfully blocked Blac Chyna’s request to rename herself Angela Kardashian. Chyna and Rob have one child together, Dream, but they were never wed.
While it is unclear how much Chyna is suing for, the lawsuit is reportedly seeking millions.
“It’s not just she lost a lot of income by not getting season two or all the other seasons that would’ve followed, it’s the endorsement deals, it’s the appearances fees, promotion of her products,” Bloom said. “This is how reality shows can become very lucrative, and the Kardashian family knows well because they have exploited the economic benefits of reality TV better than anyone … and God bless them for it. I admire their business savvy in doing that, but they know very well how important it is to have a hit show so other things could flow from it. They knew what they were depriving Chyna of.”
