Whether the Kardashians like it or not, Blac Chyna is sticking with Rob Kardashian and helping him in a way none of the Kardashians could do. While Rob struggles to come to terms with weight gain, diabetes, and the ongoing Keeping Up with the Kardashians drama, the Kardashian family have repeatedly tried to reach him and give their only brother the support he so desperately needs, but nothing has worked. Now, Blac Chyna’s helped Rob break through his depression and Blac is making a difference to Rob.

It seems that the only Kardashian son had a lot of pressure to live up to the reputation his father, Robert Kardashian, established. Robert senior was a high-powered lawyer who was part of O.J. Simpson’s defense team. That whole period was especially hard on the Kardashians, because Kris Jenner (formerly Kris Kardashian) was “still grieving the loss of her best friend,” Nicole Simpson, and looked on O.J. as a big brother. Kris described some of her feelings to People in a recent interview.

“It was horrible. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that she had been killed in such a horrific, violent way.”

Robert senior was a powerful, confident man and didn’t make it easy for his only son to fill his shoes. Blac Chyna, 27, plans to help Rob, 28, overcome his insecurities and get powerful in his own way. Blac has Rob “eating healthy and losing weight,” as he works out regularly in her home gym and follows the special diet that Chyna’s own nutritionist created for him. Blac’s got another tool in her Rob Kardashian toolkit though. She’s helping him look to Robert as an inspiration for his own life. A source close to Blac and Rob spoke to Hollywood Life to explain that in a family with “so many powerful women,” it can be very difficult for the men “to shine.”

“Blac is determined to make Rob the man his father wanted him to be. She’s working hard to “[get] him back on track with his life.”

It’s true that Rob is often “the forgotten Kardashian” in a family of extroverted, confident women who love being in the public eye. Sisters like Kim Kardashian, 35, and Kylie Jenner, 18, certainly take up a lot of the picture, and it’s been easier for Rob to hide away than to fight for his own space in the public eye. As he starts to look better and feel better about himself, he’s also more willing to be seen, and it’s all part of Blac’s “master plan.”

“Blac is focusing on helping Rob with his self-esteem, they are exercising, eating healthier at home, no more fast food and she is finally getting him off the couch and out of the house.”

Rob’s been spotted more than once recently as he makes forays into public with Blac. He’s not exactly emulating his powerful father Robert, but one step at a time!

“It is Blac’s slow way of getting Rob, little by little, back in the public eye. She is helping build his confidence again.”

Part of Chyna’s master plan came to light on January 28, when Chyna and Rob drove together to Kris Jenner’s house. It was unexpected, to say the least. With Rob in the Kardashian family’s black books for dating “Kylie Jenner’s bitter enemy,” Tyga’s ex, no one thought that he’d go out in public for a visit to the family home. It was more likely he’d want to avoid going anywhere near his feuding family. But Chyna knew better.

“[She] knew the photographers were there today and she knew they would get photos. Blac took Rob to the safest place they could go, Kris Jenner’s. The next step will be for him to step out of the car and be seen entirely. Blac is letting the pressure off of him a little at a time.”

Now fans are waiting to see just how much Rob is like his father, Robert, and hoping that Rob Kardashian 2016 is a whole different man from the 2015 version.
