In the past six months alone, Gossip Cop has busted a slew of reports about Kylie Jenner. Below is a recap of five false stories about the reality star.
In January, Gossip Cop corrected HollywoodLife for claiming Jenner had “major regrets” about getting pregnant with Travis Scott’s baby instead of Tyga’s. In the article, the website’s clearly made-up “source” was quoted as saying, “[Jenner is] starting to think she made the wrong decision by deciding to have a baby with someone who is no longer present much in her life.” At the time, we noted how Jenner’s family had been staying mum about her pregnancy, so for the aptly nicknamed HollywoodLies to allege it had sources close to the then-pregnant star was simply laughable. And any suggestion that Jenner was unhappy having Scott’s baby was hurtful and false, Gossip Cop was told.
In February, Star ridiculously alleged in a nonsensical report that Jenner was planning to lose her baby weight by flying to Switzerland to get liposuction. According to the tabloid’s insider, “Kylie is very insecure about her weight gain and is looking for a quick fix.” The magazine’s dubious “source” was further quoted as saying, “Kylie hates her body right now and won’t be out in public again until she gets her figure back,” and “if she has to fly to Switzerland to do it, she will.” While the new mom obviously wanted to shed the pounds, she wasn’t totally unhappy with her size after giving birth. Jenner showed off her body and even joked about her pregnancy weight in her birth announcement video, in which she documented her food cravings. More importantly though, considering Jenner’s every move is watched, she was never spotted in Switzerland.
Two months later, Gossip Cop debunked Star again when it untruthfully claimed that Jenner wanted to change baby Stormi’s name because of Stormy Daniels, an adult actress who had an affair with Donald Trump. “Jenner thought she had found the perfect name for her daughter Stormi, but now she’s freaking out,” purported the magazine’s unnamed tipster, adding, “Kylie is just beside herself” over the name choice. But the Stormy Daniels scandal that had Trump’s lawyer paying for her silence broke wide roughly three weeks before Jenner gave birth, so she clearly knew about the “other” Stormy. What’s more, if Jenner was really “beside herself,” she wouldn’t keep publicly referring to her daughter by her birth name.
In May, we called out the often disproven RadarOnline for falsely alleging Jenner was “ready to move on” from Scott following the birth of their baby girl. A so-called “source” was quoted as telling the online publication, “[Jenner] is feeling totally smothered” by the rapper, who had been “trying to control her entire life.” Predictably, the story was nothing more than a fabrication. Just days before the website’s article was posted, Jenner went to San Francisco without Scott, disproving the outlet’s contention that he doesn’t give her “any freedom.” Additionally, Jenner and Scott made their red carpet debut that same month at the Met Gala, where they were photographed kissing and holding hands.
Later that month, Gossip Cop corrected RadarOnline for a second time when it wrongly claimed Jenner was “bored” with being a mom. According to the website, parenthood was “cramping her teenage lifestyle,” and she supposedly missed her “old responsibility-free life.” Of course, the reality star is no longer a teenager, so the outlet produced a blatantly factual error. The blog went on to allege that Jenner wanted a “time out” and preferred to be “out on the town, hanging with her friends… She misses the party scene [and] hanging out with her girls until 4 a.m.”
But as we pointed out, Jenner took Stormi on vacation with her and Scott to Turks and Caicos just a month ago, so if she really wanted to return to a kid-free lifestyle, she would have left her baby girl at home. It was also reported by People that Jenner is a “hands-on” mom and dedicated to motherhood. While we’re certain the fake stories surrounding Jenner will continue, Gossip Cop is here to separate fact from fiction and tell the truth.
