In a revelation that shocked exactly zero therapists but at least three die-hard Kris Jenner fans, Rob Kardashian has finally opened up about why he stepped away from the spotlight in 2017.
In a rare interview, the elusive Kardashian brother—last seen in public wearing a baseball cap and existential dread—said he left Keeping Up with the Kardashians because he “didn’t feel comfortable in his own skin” and didn’t want to be vulnerable on camera.
Which is wild considering the show routinely featured childbirth, plastic surgery, and at least one psychic chicken reading.
From Confessional to Confessional-less
“I just wasn’t built for that level of exposure,” Rob said. “Everyone else was thriving on confessionals and contouring. I was over here trying to survive brunch with my sisters.”
Sources close to Rob claim that while the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan got Botox and brand deals, Rob got chronic anxiety and a sock line.
When asked how it felt watching his family skyrocket to billion-dollar brands while he quietly vanished, Rob replied:
“Honestly? Peaceful. And I didn’t have to explain to strangers why I cried during Finding Nemo.”
Fame Detox: Now in Kardashian Flavor
Rob’s self-imposed fame detox allegedly includes:
- Avoiding cameras
- Embracing therapy
- Developing a deep, spiritual relationship with hoodies
Fans have taken to social media to praise Rob for prioritizing mental health. One tweet read,
“Good for Rob. Sometimes the healthiest thing is to log off, stay inside, and pretend your last name is Smith.”
Even Kris Jenner reportedly supported the decision, stating,
“I’m proud of Rob. He’s always been the mystery flavor of the Kardashian brand.”
A Braver Kind of Reality
In a world where people livestream their dentist appointments, Rob’s resistance to oversharing is… kind of revolutionary.
He didn’t flame out. He ghosted fame. Softly. In sweatpants.
And honestly? That might be the most Kardashian thing of all.
