Kim Kardashian Is Being Praised For Shutting Down Kendall Jenner’s “Disrespectful” Reaction To Kourtney Kardashian And Travis Barker’s Engagement
“How dare Kendall do this to her sister on the day she gets engaged? That's really messed up.”

When Keeping Up With the Kardashians first launched in 2007, there was just one sister’s romantic relationship that dominated the show.

But despite Scott being so established within Kourtney’s inner circle, their relationship was incredibly tumultuous and blighted by Scott’s drug and alcohol use, as well as him cheating on her.

After almost 10 years, Kourtney ended things for good in 2015 after she gave him one last chance to improve his behavior, to no avail.

Following the split, the pair remained amicable and were able to establish a healthy co-parenting relationship for their children. Kourtney’s family also continued to embrace Scott as one of their own, and he remained on their reality show.

Younes had shared screenshots of the messages to his Instagram story, and it was recently revealed that Scott sent Kourtney a groveling apology after the leak.

And now the behind-the-scenes aftermath of the proposal has been revealed in Kourtney and company’s new Hulu reality series, The Kardashians.

This week’s episode centered on the engagement and was — of course — packed full of drama.

In fact, Kourtney was seen fighting back tears after her daughter, Penelope, sobbed on the phone when she learned about the proposal. Kourtney also went on to criticize her mom Kris Jenner’s decision to not include her children at the surprise celebration party.

Unbeknownst to Kourtney, her entire family and Travis’s children were waiting for them in their Santa Barbara hotel suite after she said “yes.”

Kris told Kourtney’s sisters, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, that she thought Kourtney’s children were too young to attend as it was on a Sunday evening. Penelope had also been unwell, and Kris believed it would have been hard to explain to Scott why he couldn’t have the kids that day.

Kim followed Kourtney and was trying to comfort her when the rest of their sisters joined them, and Kendall Jenner’s behavior in the emotional scene has sparked fierce backlash online.

While Kourtney tried to get hold of her oldest child, Mason, Kendall asked Khloé what Scott had said to her about the engagement after she revealed that he’d already heard about it.

Whispering as they sat just inches away from Kourtney, Khloé relayed to Kendall that Scott had said, “You guys are gonna kick me out now. I’m not involved in the family.” Khloé also said that Scott had asked why his kids weren’t there and he was told that it was because “they were too young.”

After Kourtney said that she did, Kendall snapped: “Because it doesn’t feel like you do, just as an outsider.”

Kim then pointed out: “He’s also had five, six years to get over this.” But Kendall argued: “Of course, but it’s always going to sting.”

Kim went on to defend her older sister as she told the rest of the group: “Guys, are we so fucking crazy that we are talking about it [now]? Can we talk about this tomorrow and let them enjoy their night out there?”

Hulu

Speaking in a confessional, Kourtney said of the situation: “I’m sensitive to [Scott] and his feelings and I communicate with him about the kids and I make sure that he’s good, but beyond that I just got engaged and I want to be happy and be in the moment, and I just don’t think that this moment is about Scott.”

Hulu

And this was a sentiment that the majority of viewers agreed with, with many fans taking to social media to criticize Kendall’s “attitude” toward her sister on such a special night.

Writing on a Reddit forum, one person said: “This was so wrong of Kendall. Kourtney was with Scott for almost ten years, and he was the one who destroyed their relationship. He cries and wails over Kourtney but doesn’t give up drugs/alcohol to get her back. Kourtney and Scott agreed that they would get back together if he cleaned up his lifestyle, and he still refused. So after 15 or so years, [Kourtney] moved on. Scott will always be family, but he is the one who ruined that relationship.”

“Kendall stfu, Scott treated Kourtney horribly and you’re guilt tripping her on one of the happiest days of her life. Shame on you!” someone else tweeted. Another added: “Maybe Kendall’s not on the show very much because she’s a bad sister lmao. Kourtney got engaged 5 seconds ago.”

“Sorry but Kendall is not a good sister, like how are you gonna bring up my baby daddy (who i broke up with 5 yrs ago, and who was a terrible partner to me for 7yrs) minutes after I got engaged. thank god Kim jumped in, n shut the convo down for Kourtney,” someone echoed.

Hulu

However, he then expressed his “relief” that “somebody else is taking care of her,” and described Kourtney as being “a lot of work” to put up with.

E!

He said to Khloé: “I kind of in a selfish way feel like a lot has been kinda lifted off of me. I think in the end it’s kind of a good thing. I couldn’t do the job of being with her. So I salute Travis. Like, he’s in for a lot of work, Kourtney is not the simplest when it comes to… Everything.”

While Scott is visibly struggling with Kourtney moving on, Kourtney is noticeably happier than ever in her new relationship and fans have expressed their joy at seeing such a huge, positive shift in her in recent months.

Hulu

One person summarized: “How Kourtney has been acting with Travis is so unlike anything I’ve ever seen from her. It’s almost uncomfortable looking back at old scenes because she was clearly very angry and bitter because of Scott. Now she’s happy, fun, and smiling. That’s an upgrade.”

And we can only hope that Scott is able to find his own happily ever after soon.
