Rob Kardashian, the often-overlooked son of Kris Jenner, has been noticeably absent from the public eye in recent years, sparking rumors and concern among fans.

Many speculate that Rob has been treated poorly by his family, who allegedly focused on promoting the fame of his sisters, Kim, Khloé, and Kylie, while leaving him feeling neglected and ostracized. Reports suggest that Rob has felt isolated, betrayed, and even sacrificed for the Kardashian-Jenner family’s fame and financial empire.

One of the key controversies centers around rumors of Rob being considered for a conservatorship, a restrictive legal arrangement where someone else would control his personal and financial decisions.

This idea gained traction due to the family’s reported connection with Lou Taylor, the former business manager known for orchestrating Britney Spears’s conservatorship. Although nothing official came from these whispers, fans suspect Rob’s mental health struggles might have prompted discussions about such drastic measures.

Much of Rob’s stress reportedly stems from family dynamics that appear to prioritize the public image and careers of his sisters over his well-being. Allegedly, he has long felt that his family ignored his personal struggles, including his weight gain and mental health issues, which worsened after a turbulent relationship with singer Rita Ora in 2012.

During a period of weight gain and declining mental health, Rob was said to have faced relentless teasing from his family. Kim, in particular, was rumored to have body-shamed him, which led to a downward spiral, with Rob feeling more isolated and less inclined to appear in family photos and public events.

Another major complaint from Rob is the perceived lack of support from his mother, Kris Jenner, whom he claims has always been more focused on advancing her daughters’ careers than supporting his ventures.

Rob has expressed frustration over feeling as though his business interests were dismissed in favor of those that aligned with his sisters’ brands. For instance, he reportedly struggled to establish a men’s fashion line but found little encouragement or assistance from Kris, who was fully invested in his sisters’ projects.

The family dynamic seems to go beyond Kris’s career choices for her children, as fans have noted that the Kardashian-Jenner women rarely share images or updates about their sons on social media, while their daughters are frequently featured. Some fans suggest that Kris has set a precedent, focusing her efforts on her daughters’ public images due to the financial rewards they bring through their various brands and appearances.

For Rob, these experiences have reportedly led to feelings of anger, disappointment, and even resentment toward his family. While his sisters and mother continue to build lucrative careers, Rob has gradually faded from public view, allegedly choosing to distance himself due to the family’s relentless focus on appearance and fame.

In recent years, Rob has remained mostly out of the limelight, reportedly struggling with depression and the weight of living in the shadow of his famous siblings. The whispers surrounding Rob’s well-being and the Kardashian-Jenner family dynamics only continue to grow as fans question whether Rob has been abandoned in favor of his sisters’ continued rise in the celebrity world.
