Rob Kardashian, Blac Chyna Paid Big Bucks To Appear On ‘KUWTK,’ Source Reports

A familiar face has made his way back to Keeping Up With the Kardashians this season, and it shouldn’t be a surprise that he’s brought his now-famous fiancée along with him — and they’re both making bank.

According to a recent report from Life & Style magazine, Rob Kardashian is being paid $2 million to appear on the current season of KUWTK. Previously, before Rob took a leave of absence from the show, he had been paid $500,000 for each season, according to reports.

Additionally, Rob’s finacée, Blac Chyna, is pulling in a $750,000 paycheck, sources claim. That’s not quite as much as the $1 million she initially demanded, but according to the Life & Style report, Blac was more than thrilled with the payout.

The Life & Style source went on to say that Blac Chyna’s hefty earnings are a result of hard work put in by Rob’s momager, Kris Jenner, despite the fact that Jenner is not actually Blac’s manager. Turns out, Chyna was appreciative of Kris’ help in the salary department.

“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.”

Of course, given the recent developments in the Rob Kardashian-Blac Chyna relationship, it’s understandable that both would receive big pay checks. Rob and Blac began dating in January, and their relationship has brought nothing but drama to the Kardashian-Jenner family ever since. Each of Rob’s famous sisters was reportedly upset with the relationship, and some went so far as to admonish Rob publicly. Khloe Kardashian, for example, tweeted about her disappointment about Rob’s decision before she eventually kicked him out of her home, and Kylie Jenner was reportedly “livid” about the hookup.

Of course, Kylie had the most valid reason for being upset. Blac Chyna previously dated Tyga and is the mother of Tyga’s 3-year-old son. Ever since Kylie and Tyga began dating, there has been serious friction between Kylie and Blac — largely because Blac claims that Kylie began dating Tyga before Tyga and Chyna had actually split!

Understandably, Kylie was reportedly devastated to hear the news that her half-brother had gotten engaged to her nemesis after only a few months of dating, but things may have changed since the engagement became public. In a recent Instagram post, it appeared as if Blac and Kylie had made up and called a truce. Sources reported that Kylie had come to terms with the relationship between Chyna and Rob, and knowing that she couldn’t change the situation, decided to accept it and move on.

Additionally, Rob could pull in ratings as fans follow his weight-loss journey and path back to a healthy lifestyle. After Rob left KUWTK, he reportedly struggled with depression as his weight ballooned and his health deteriorated. In December, Rob was rushed to the hospital and reportedly diagnosed with diabetes, but since he began dating Blac, he’s said to have lost more than 50 pounds. Blac Chyna is largely credited with helping Rob to turn his lifestyle around.

Already Rob and Blac’s relationship has been on display as the first episode of the current season saw Khloe discussing her decision to kick Rob and Blac out of her home. Additionally, Kendall Jenner and Rob Kardashian got into it after Kendall angrily accused Rob of regifting to Blac Chyna an iPad she’d given to her brother.

What do you think of the news that Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna were reportedly paid a combined $2.75 million to appear on the current season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians? Do Rob and Blac make you want to tune in? Why or why not?
