The KarJenners had QUITE the week!
When you’re one of the most famous families in the world, it doesn’t take long for BIG news to rack up.
Read ahead to get caught up on all the major news that’s happened over the past week with Kim, Kourtney, Khloé Kardashian, as well as Kylie, Kendall, and Kris Jenner!

On August 10, TMZ reported Kim’s Hidden Hills mansion was broken into over the weekend. Scary! Thankfully, the reality star and her four children, including North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, were not home at the time as they’re currently living elsewhere as the mansion undergoes renovations, but that doesn’t make things any less invasive!
According to the outlet, a 27-year-old man forced his way into the sprawling estate on Sunday, snooped around, took items from inside, and loaded them into a vehicle. Wild enough, the outlet reported the unnamed burglar took a car belonging to one of Kim’s staff members on a joyride around the neighborhood.
WTF?
Sources told the outlet a security guard clocked the vehicle and followed it back to Kim’s home before dialing 911. Cops later showed up and arrested the dude without incident.
According to cops, no one was injured, and no weapons were found on the suspect. Interestingly, a Kim source challenged some of the claims to the outlet, arguing the individual never was able to break into the mansion and does not have any of her belongings in his possession.
Over the second weekend in August, Kim took to Instagram to show off what she’s been up to this summer with her Formula 1 pro BF Lewis Hamilton — and it’s giving us all the feels! In a carousel with no caption, the SKIMS founder shared several loved-up snaps with Lewis, including selfies, elevator snaps, and some cuddling action. See (below):
Soooo cute!
During an interview with People published on August 12, Kim got candid about struggling with her psoriasis skin condition for the last decade — and all the many methods she’s tried in an effort to calm it:
“In the daytime, I would have to put on an ointment, and then wrap it in Saran Wrap at nighttime. So I used to have Saran Wrap by the side of my bed.”
She claimed the method helped by “really locking [the ointment] in,” but that it made her “sleep like crunchy Tin-Man.”
“If I got up, you would hear crunch, crunch, crunch. When I would walk, [it was] like a diaper.”
OMG! Poor Kimmy!
There’s currently no cure for the rashy skin condition, which Momager Kris Jenner also suffers from, and in Kim’s opinion, even steroids didn’t offer much of a long-term solution:
“As soon as you stop them, it’s coming right back.”
However, she now swears by Broc Shot. Made with sulforaphane derived from broccoli seed, it’s the “first supplement to be recognized by the National Psoriasis Foundation.” Watch her plug it (below):
According to documents filed on August 12 and seen by Us Weekly, an LA judge denied Ray J’s request to dismiss the defamation lawsuit Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner launched against him. For those unaware, Kim and Kris filed the suit last October after Ray J accused them of being investigated for racketeering in a case “worse than Diddy.”
The once-popular rapper has since tried to save face by claiming his statements, which he made during a Twitch livestream were “hypothetical.” He also claimed he believed he was making them “to himself, off camera.” The 45-year-old tried to claim the comments were not offensive, but the judge disagreed in a response:
“The statements of the Defendant can reasonably be interpreted as charging Plaintiffs with racketeering, which of course is a crime. A reasonable person would be offended by a false accusation that they had committed a crime. On this record, there is evidence sufficient to support a finding that Defendant’s statements were offensive to a reasonable person.”
The filing further stated:
“The Court DENIES the special motion to strike filed by Defendant Willie Ray Norwood, Jr. [Ray J].”
In response to the decision, Ray J’s lawyer told Us Weekly:
“We will promptly appeal the ruling which failed to recognize Ray J’s first amendment right to publish his opinion about the despicable behavior of Kim Kardashian. The appeal freezes the proceedings so it is unlikely there will be a trial anytime soon or ever.”
A trial date has been set for March 6, 2028.
On August 6, the official trailer for Travis’ new documentary Louder Than Fear dropped — and it offers an emotional look inside Blink-182, including footage of the late Taylor Hawkins. Watch (below):
You can stream the doc on Disney+ this Friday!
In an interview with People published on August 12, Travis opened up the one simple-yet-important rule he doesn’t compromise on while being married to the eldest KarJenner sister:
“We try not to ever fall asleep mad at each other. [We] try to resolve, even if it’s just like, ‘Hey, I thought you were going to meet me for lunch, and you didn’t text me back right away, so I didn’t know if we were meeting for lunch.’”
He added:
“Even if it’s just as simple as, like, ‘Oh babe, I take accountability. I’m sorry. I didn’t see your text right away.’ Just resolving anything so you don’t go to bed not feeling connected is really important.”
That’s such an underrated way to ALWAYS make sure he and Kourt both feel seen and heard!
The 50-year-old went on to reflect on being years-long “workout buddies” with the Poosh founder before finally taking their relationship in a romantic direction:
“It’s one of the main reasons we were so close. We would always work out together and run together before we were ever in a relationship. It’s amazing to be with someone that has the same love for wellness.”
Love that!
During a sit-down conversation with Jay Shetty for the On Purpose podcast on Tuesday, Travis revealed an eerie premonition his daughter Alabama had 18 years ago — RIGHT before his deadly plane crash. He recalled reluctantly going to put on a performance at the University of South Carolina one weekend in 2008:
“When Thursday came around I had said to my manager, ‘Is it too late to just pull out? I don’t really need to do this.’ I was just so content with being home with the kiddos. And he was like, ‘Bro, you can’t cancel this late.’”
So, he put on a brave face and went for it… but not before Alabama, now 20, gave him a chilling warning
“So I ended up flying out there, and I say bye to Bama — she’s young at the time, she’s 3 or 4 years old. She’s like, ‘Dad, don’t go,’ and she’s bawling, and she doesn’t usually do that. She’s like, ‘The roof’s gonna come off,’ and I’m like, ‘What is she talking about?’”
Whoa… He went on:
“I get there, play our show, and then we’re supposed to leave the next morning, but everyone else that was with me was in a hurry to get home, so we booked a private plane super last minute.”
Travis noted that even back then, prior to the crash, he was very concerned with proper aircraft maintenance and pilot credentials — but that “none” of those checks and balances happened that time.
The group eventually arrived at the airport and pulled up next to a “really small” plane in the fog of night. He recalled thinking:
“This can’t be our plane. There’s no way.”
Travis apparently called his dad and told him he had “an awful feeling” about the situation, but was reassured he’d be “fine.”
“I knew something feels off. I even told my dad, ‘If something happens to me, please make sure the kids are taken care of …’ I was saying way too much. All the signs were there.”
Tragically, the plane crashed in South Carolina killing four of six passengers. Travis sustained horrific burns on 65 to 70 percent of his body. The only other survivor was DJ AM Goldstein, who later passed away in 2009.
Travis reflected:
“Now, older me would just say, ‘I think I’m not going to get on the plane.’”
While promoting his new documentary Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear, the Blink-182 drummer stopped by The New York Times’ Popcast, where he admitted he does NOT watch The Kardashians — despite frequently appearing on it with wife Kourtney Kardashian:
“I kind of don’t even realize I’m on the show. To be honest… I don’t watch the show. I think the best way for me to deal with stuff like that or to be part of things like that is to not really acknowledge that I’m being filmed or that anything different’s happening.”
He continued:
“I never even approve episodes or watch them… I’m not on the show as, like, a main character where I have, like, interviews and I do whatever. I’m usually just… I’m an accessory.”
Aren’t all the KarJenner men? Just kidding!
During a new interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Travis spilled on once performing a Blink-182 show while high as a kite! The drummer recalled touring with No Doubt and Cypress Hill in 2004, when B-Real and Sen Dog enticed him and Tom DeLonge to smoke some a bit of ganja with them before going on stage:
“Dude, let me tell you, it was the longest f**king show. Songs felt like they lasted forever.”
HA! He went on to detail how strange it felt while drumming:
“It was like my body was working, but everything up here was silent, and I was noticing stuff I don’t normally notice.”
He wasn’t the only one who was thrown off his game, though. About halfway through the set, Tom apparently came up to him and said, “I wanna go home.” Poor guy! Travis recalled:
“And I was like, ‘Me too.’ It was so awful.”
After that, Travis realized something:
“Smoking before shows is not my thing.”
Lesson learned!
During his appearance on The New York Times’ Popcast, Kourtney’s husband revealed he advised his eldest son Landon Barker, 22, to NOT appear on The Voice:
“My son called me the other day and he’s like, ‘Hey, they offered me to go on The Voice.’ And I was like, ‘Dude, you’re way too cool for that.’”
Too cool to earn some dinero??
Travis went on to explain he told the young singer to reflect on his musical influences — and to ask himself whether or not they would have accepted the gig:
“You got to think about your idols. If your idol is Kurt Cobain, would he ever do The Voice? No.”
Funny enough, Travis himself has appeared on American Idol on numerous occasions! But don’t worry, he explained himself:
“I’m different. I’m doing fun s**t that’s just fun for me ‘cause I’m a drummer and I’m not in the forefront. It’d be different if I was singing with all these people.”
Do YOU think this is a contradiction??
Kourtney’s former nanny Leah Barrs stirred up controversy earlier this summer when she revealed on Million Dollar Nanny that at 22 years old, she slept with the father of a family she cared for. Now in her 30s, Leah revealed it’s something she has mixed feelings about doing:
“It was something I regret doing. I guess I don’t regret it because you learn from your mistakes, but I’m not that person today.”
When she made the admission, the rumor mill quickly started buzzing with Travis Barker’s name coming up the possible mystery father, but Leah is now shooting down that speculation.
While appearing on Harry Jowsey’s Boyfriend Material podcast, Leah revealed the steamy incident actually occurred before she ever worked for Kourt from 2019 to 2022. Speaking about the mystery dad, she revealed:
“I did him a favor one night, and he came back from his event. The daughter was asleep. Technically, I’m clocked out. He is my friend. I’ve always thought he was hot. We hook up. It’s just something that was so insignificant, like so long ago that just got blown out of proportion.”
We’re glad to hear that got cleared up!
In Travis’ new documentary Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear, the musician recalls learning son Rocky Barker would require surgery while he was still in the womb:
“I was touring, I was actually in Europe. [Kourtney] says, ‘Trav, I went to my doctor and the baby’s lungs are filling with fluid.’”
Travis revealed the situation required surgery to “[drain] the fluid from his lungs by placing a needle through [Kourtney’s] stomach.”
Kourtney herself shared:
“It was terrifying going in for the surgery. He canceled four shows, and he just came and laid with me in the hospital and made sure that everything was OK.”
So scary!
Travis went on to reflect on the concern he felt for Kourt and Rocky:
“Once you’ve experienced a miscarriage, you’re just waiting for something awful to happen.”
We’re so glad everything turned out OK!
Khloé Kardashian is adding ANOTHER reality show to her resume!
After countless seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, all of its NUMEROUS spin-offs, and now The Kardashians on Hulu, the Good American founder is producing another offshoot: we introduce to you to The Girls!
Starring Khloé and her closest group of gal pals, including longtime BFFs Makila and Khadijah Haqq, Natalie Halcro, Olivia Pierson, Yris Palmer, and Nicole Williams English, The Girls is set to unveil the ins and outs of Khloé’s crew and all the drama along the way. Be sure to look out for other KarJenner cameos when all six episodes premiere on August 21!
Earlier this summer, Khloé’s ex Rashad McCants, a former NBA star, opened up about briefly dating the reality star founder for seven months between 2008 and 2009. On the TFU podcast, he dished on the mythical “Kardashian curse” that some say plague the men in the famous KarJenner women’s lives:
“I don’t know, man, I didn’t get cursed. I got out.”
He went on to reveal he broke things off with Khlo because the spotlight became “too much” for him to handle. He further claimed Khloé had rules about how he carried himself since she was so heavily in the public eye, and that one minor Facebook update did them in:
“I changed my relationship status to ‘It’s complicated.’ This is what did it all.”
According to Rashad, the update quickly caught traction online, which in turn led to Khloé confronting him. But he claimed the relationship was merely for cameras, and that he actually had feelings for her older sister Kim:
“It’s complicated. You date me because you want me to help you do some s**t. We have an agreement. This is not, I like you, I like your sister … I’m here for different reasons, so are you, so it’s complicated.”
He continued:
“And I’m trying to convince other girls the same, like…no no no, we’re not dating, we’re just visibly holding hands. We’re not doing too much. We can still do what we do. It got too much. I was like, you know what, I’m cool.”

On August 10, Kylie, the youngest KarJenner sister turned 29 — and to celebrate a few days early, she threw her a delightfully pink kitty-cat themed party! On August 7, the mom-of-two shared several photos from the dialed-back function at her ritzy LA mansion, including some of her wearing a pink latex dress, cat ears, and a feather boa. She had three different cakes — one decorated with gems, another with cats, and a third that was in the shape of a bikini-clad Kylie! Ch-ch-check ‘em out (below):
Attendees on the guest list included Kendall, Kim and Khloé, Hailey Bieber, and others… including Kylie’s 8-year-old daughter Stormi! See more snaps from the event HERE.
However, it’s not a real party without a bit of drama, right??
One familiar face that was noticeably absent from Kylie’s b-day festivities was her longtime BFF Stassie Karanikolaou. Whaaaat?? These two are basically attached at the hip! What could have come up for Stassie to miss her bestie’s final b-day in her 20s?? Well, a trip with Alix Earle.
While the IG model was nowhere to be seen in LA for Kylie’s celebration, she was seen galavanting in Ibiza with Alix! See pics (below):
Fans quickly began debating whether or not a friendship-ending feud may have occurred between Kylie and Stassie, but it turns out, they’re A-OK! An insider told Page Six on Wednesday:
“Kylie and Stassie are still friends. There hasn’t been some big falling out or anything like that. They actually traveled together pretty recently. They just haven’t been hanging out as much as they used to.”
And the reason might have something to do with Mr. Timothée Chalamet! The source dished:
“Kylie’s in a really serious relationship now and she’s been spending more time doing things with Timothée [Chalamet] and other couples, like dinners, double dates, group stuff like that … Stassie is single, so she’s naturally been spending more time with friends who are in the same place in their lives, including Alix.”
That makes sense! They’re in different phases of life! The source further noted:
“It’s not the first time Kylie has been in a relationship while Stassie was single, so it’s not just that. Their lives and social circles are just a little different right now and they’re not overlapping as much. It isn’t personal.”
Well we’re glad to hear that!
The KarJenner family can FINALLY sigh a breath of relief — because they’ve officially been granted a long-term restraining order against Kylie’s alleged stalker! In case you’re out of the loop, the famous family claimed a man named Kyle Robert DeWick was stalking them — particularly Kylie, but also Kendall, Kim, Khloé, Kourtney, and Rob. Initially, they were dealt a temporary restraining order, which also protects momma Kris, but it’s now been upped to three years! More details HERE.
On August 15, the Kylie Cosmetics founder returned to IG to share more birthday snaps in a carousel captioned, “hello 29 >.” The dump included pics from a tropical landscape, paint balling with Kendall, Kim, and Khloé, and a high-octane joyride with Kimmy’s boyfriend Lewis Hamilton! In the sixth slide of the carousel, Kylie is riding passenger in a Can-Am Maverick X3 UTV being driven by the F1 pro. The rig is designed for off-roading action, which is EXACTLY what they did! In the video, Khloé, who is seemingly recording, shouts, “Birthday ride!” before the two take off at high speeds on a dirt track. See HERE.
No one ever wants to out shine the bride at her own wedding, but the KarJenners certainly know how to walk the line!
On August 15, Kylie attended her former BFF Jordyn Woods and NBA star Karl-Anthony Towns star-studded wedding, and she brought BF Timothée Chalamet along!
For the ritzy event, the Khy founder wore an absolutely STUNNING Roberto Cavalli halter gown in black, which featured hip cut outs and sparlking crystal belts. For Timmy’s look, he sported an edgy black leather jacket over a blue button-down, black pants, and matching sunglasses. And we’re sure the Oscar-nominated actor had a LOT to talk about with Karl, as he’s a major New York Knicks fan and the groom is the team’s center!
Also in attendance were big names like Justin and Hailey Bieber, Jada Pinkett Smith, Jaden Smith, Willow Smith, Michael B. Jordan, Teyana Taylor, Gayle King, and more.
Well there you have it! That’s pretty much ALL the latest major KarJenner news. Do you feel caught up? At least for the time being? Be sure to let us know in the comments down below!
