Rob Kardashian has reportedly landed himself a $2 million paycheck for his return to Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

The reality star, who infamously quit the show following his weight gain battle, has now made his return for Season 12, reportedly being the highest-paid family member on the program seeing all of the attention that has surrounded him and his fiancée, Blac Chyna, lately.

According to reports, producers of KUWTK couldn’t start filming scenes for the latest season without Rob Kardashian being part of it. So much that network execs paid Rob an astounding $2 million to make his anticipated return to the program, an insider confirmed.

A source for Life & Style stresses, “Previously, Rob had been paid $500,000 per season to be on the show,” which was still impressive considering that the sock designer would barely make appearances on the show to begin with.

The network thinks “his drastic weight loss and sudden engagement to Blac Chyna would be ratings gold for the E! network,” adding that Chyna will allegedly join her soon-to-be husband on the program in the hopes of helping boost the show’s ratings.

KUWTK has remained rather popular throughout the years, but with the media attention surrounding Blac Chyna, her feud with Kylie Jenner, and the fact that she is planning to tie the knot with Rob later this year, the show would miss out on a huge storyline if the 29-year-old decided not to make his comeback to reality television.

As far as Blac Chyna is concerned, momager Kris Jenner reportedly helped the former stripper land herself an impressive deal of her own with the network that will see her making appearances on KUWTK for a whopping $750,000 per season.

“Kris played hardball with the network and got Blac a $750,000 check, even though she isn’t her manager. Blac was so thankful for the gesture she gave Kris a ten percent cut of the check.”

On top of that, Chyna and Rob are also expected to make up to $10 million if they choose to document their wedding for reality TV alongside magazine exclusives and sponsorships.

All in all, Rob Kardashian has made a drastic change in his life, starting with his health and evidently progressing over to his net worth status. If the socialite does decide to film his wedding to Chyna for the reported price of $10 million, Rob will have made the most money from reality television in just a matter of months.

From what KUWTK fans have already seen in the show’s premiere episode, Rob and his sisters have not been getting along over his sudden decision to propose to Blac Chyna, who was fuming when her ex-boyfriend Tyga left her for Kylie Jenner last year.

The storyline will continue to play out on the show as the program progresses in its current season.

Rob Kardashian has yet to announce whether or not he will document his wedding to Blac Chyna this summer. The couple is believed to have already started planning for their big day, and Rob’s sisters have been informed that they are all invited to his big day, having finally squashed their feud and accepted that Blac isn’t going anywhere.

Do you think Rob Kardashian will end up tying the knot with Blac Chyna, or is their romance just all for show?
