Bad news, Keeping Up with the Kardashian fans. Rumors have surfaced that Rob Kardashian will not be appearing on the upcoming season of the show and could have potentially been fired by the network. These latest claims come after Rob's recent weight gain and laughable tabloid reports that Rob could be stalking a popular model, in hopes of dating the beauty.
It looks like things keep getting worse for Rob Kardashian, who has spoken openly about suffering from depression.
E! reportedly inked a new deal with the Kardashian klan, that would see the family taking home $100 million dollars over the next three to four years.
But, as Page Six tells readers, that only includes the women of the Kardashian family:
"The Kardashians have signed a record-breaking, $100 million-plus deal to remain with E! for another four years, sources have exclusively confirmed to Page Six...Momager Kris Jenner recently secured the astonishing deal for herself and daughters Kim, Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner."
There are a few names that have been noticeably left off of that list, chiefly Bruce Jenner and Rob Kardashian.
For Bruce, the decision makes sense. After all, numerous media outlets have reported that Bruce is working on his own solo project -- a docuseries that will reportedly chronicle his transition into womanhood.
For Rob, however, the decision not to be included in the deal is a bit murkier. Still, this doesn't necessarily mean that Rob won't be featured on the show.
TMZ tells readers that he may be appearing on the show, but Rob will only be paid on a per episode basis:
"And get this...Y chromosomes are personae non gratea for the new deal. We're told Scott Disick has his own deal outside the Kardashians and Rob will only get paid per episode if he ends up on the show at all. As for Bruce -- he'll only look like a double X -- but we're told his X and Y chromosomes are not part of the deal either."
What do you think about the latest claims? Was Rob really fired from the hit show? Do you think Bruce will be making a special appearance?
