Kim Kardashian tells Kris Jenner to cut off brother Rob

Kim Kardashian has insisted her family need to be cruel to be kind when it comes to her brother Rob.

In a new clip for Keeping Up With The Kardashians, the 34-year-old told momager Kris Jenner, 59, and sister Khloe, 30, that they need to stop catering to Rob’s every need.

Khloe recently claimed Rob is suffering from social anxiety, which is believed to have stemmed from his weight gain.

In the clip, Kris says: “I’m not a therapist, I’m not a doctor. But I do know that we’ve got all the resources in the world, and yet he doesn’t access.”

But Kim disagrees, telling Kris and bemused-looking Khloe: “We all make his life so easy. Okay, we’ll drive you around with a chauffeur so no one has to look at you!

“We had a chef on standby, a trainer. We’ll send people to run out and buy you socks and underwear! Like, this is pathetic.”

An adamant Kim refuses to budge, fuming: “We’re not going to cater to him anymore, but it has to be all of us.”

Do you think Kim is being too harsh?

The former High School Musical actress, who split from Zac in 2010, told the New York Times: “I went through a phase when I was really mean because I was so fed up.

“Girls were running after him, and I was giving them death stares. I realised that’s not what that’s about. Spread the love, be a good person, they support you, be nice.”

Karrueche, who is known for being very coy when it comes to her love life, recently dismissed the reports that she and the Golden States Warrior star are dating.
