3. Rob Kardashian’s Instagram scandal
Original image has been replaced. Credit: Mashable Breakup rumors were in the air this week when Rob Kardashian suddenly removed every trace of Blac Chyna from his Instagram account, unfollowed her, and deleted every single photo from his page.
A new, private Rob account just surfaced, listed under the name “robkardsahian.” Blac Chyna recently followed this new account which would suggest its legitimacy, although some older posts on the 14 week old account provide reason to believe it’s a fan’s creation.
Robkardsahian posted a photo with Blac Chyna captioned, “I want to say that me and Chy haven't broken up we are just going through some tough times and social media blew it all up. I would prefer if we could stay out of the spotlight and find a resolution 💯💯🔥🔥.”
It’s still unclear whether the account is legitimate or not, but hopefully Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian’s upcoming E! reality series will shed some light.
