Rob Kardashian’s ex-girlfriend has filed a lawsuit against her former beau and his famous family, claiming that they “became media predators” against her after her breakup with Kardashian, and that the family worked to prevent a second season of the couple’s E! series “Rob & Chyna.”
Chyna, real name Angela White, also alleges that Rob Kardashian, the father of her child Dream, was physically abusive to her.
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, names Rob Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner and lists a host of counts, including assault, battery, harassment and defamation.
“Rob Kardashian is an abuser intent on destroying Angela White, the mother of his baby, who left him in 2016,” the lawsuit reads. “In revenge, the Kardashian-Jenner family became media predators, slut-shaming her on social media and killing her television show, which had already begun filming a second season.”
The suit says that Chyna was unaware when she first started dating Kardashian that his “powerful, vindictive family” takes it personally “if you leave and will come after you, using their fame, wealth and power to take you down.
“They will get your television show canceled, They will go after your endorsement deals. They will condone slut-shaming of you. They will spread lies about you. They will claim you are a bad mother, without evidence. They will even fund a lawsuit about crumbled cookies to get revenge on you for leaving a Kardashian,” the lawsuit reads.
Yes, you read that right: Crumbled cookies.
The lawsuit says that, after the Kardashian-Chyna relationship crumbled and she left him in December 2016, Rob Kardashian hacked into Chyna’s Instagram account and impersonated her to make it seem like she was “speaking negatively” about him.
Things escalated this July, the suit alleges, when Rob Kardashian posted revenge porn of Chyna on his Instagram account “while ranting against and publicly shaming” her with “graphic, defamatory and abusive social media posts.”
Kardashian posted “photos of Ms. White’s genitals, buttocks and nipples,” the suit says, at one point falsely claiming, “This is a pic Chyna just sent me before she f–ked another man in her house with my baby in the house and her son in the house.”
The suit goes on to say that Kardashian’s family “intentionally interfered with Ms. White’s Talent Agreement with the E! network. Defendants also intentionally interfered with Ms. White’s prospective economic advantage in filming a second season of ‘Rob & Chyna.'”
According to the suit, in February, Rob Kardashian’s family “contacted E! network executives to demand the network not proceed with a second season of ‘Rob & Chyna.”
“Shortly thereafter, attorneys for the network informed Ms. White and her legal team that the network could not proceed with filming a second season as Rob’s mother Kris Jenner and his sisters Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner demanded the second season of ‘Rob & Chyna’ not be filmed,” the suit reads.
Representatives of the Kardashian family and E! had no comment on the lawsuit.
In a statement, Chyna’s attorney, Lisa Bloom, told TheWrap, “I am pleased to represent Blac Chyna as she stands up for her rights in the lawsuit we have filed today. Revenge porn is wrong and illegal. Domestic violence is wrong and illegal. We will aggressively prosecute this case until we get justice.”
The suit seeks unspecified damages.
