About Robert Kardashian
Rob Kardashian Jr. is a television personality and businessman who is most famous for being a part of the Kardashian family and the son of famous attorney Robert Kardashian, and more famously, Kris Jenner, though he sometimes tends to distance himself from them and their affiliations. In his career, it is estimated that Rob has earned income equal to a salary of $1-2 million dollars per year since 2019.
Originally, Rob earned from his regular appearances on Keeping Up With The Kardashians and its many spin offs. On top of that, he featured on other reality and contest shows, including ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, in which he placed second, and the Fox dating show, The Choice. The Kardashian is also known for many of his public relationships, most notably with Adrienne Bailon and Blac Chyna.
Kardashian is most famous for being born in to one of the most well-known and popular families on the planet. The Kardashian name has been prevalent in the press for decades. His father, Robert Kardashian, was a famous attorney who is best known for acting as one of O.J. Simpson’s lawyers during his trial in the 90s. His sisters, who are much, much more famous than he is, and are best known for their dating profiles and becoming successful self-made businesswomen. The the most famous being Kim Kardashian, who is married to Kanye West, as well as his half-sister Kylie Jenner, who became incredibly famous when she was featured on the cover of Forbes magazine, in 2019.
Being the only male of the siblings, Rob doesn’t appear at all the events that were be seen on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but he has made several appearances throughout the years. In 2011, Kardashian signed on to take part in the 13th season of Dancing With The Stars, in which he was paired with Cheryl Burke, who was already a two time champion of the show. Over the course of the show, Kardashian had become the most improved dancer, and he even made it to the finals. Kardashian surprisingly came in second place, losing to J.R. Martinez and Karin Smirnoff.
As the TV personality was in the runner-up team, he had bested his sister, Kim Kardashian, who was quickly eliminated from the reality contest show in season seven when she was partnered with Mark Ballas. After Kardashian’s profile grew due to his affiliation with his sisters, his mother, and Caitlyn Jenner, the amount that the media followed him increased tenfold. His relationship with Adrienne Bailon, co-host of the daytime talk show The Real, was also heavily documented not just on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, but in the tabloids as well. According to NY Daily News Rob admitted that their break up was due to his infidelity in the relationship, Kardashian and Bailon’s split became a big deal in the papers. Following the split with Bailon, Kardashian had a short lived relationship with the singer and X Factor judge, Rita Ora.
His second highly publicized relationship was with female model Blac Chyna, which began in 2016, and they had gotten engaged just three months later. The couple had a daughter together, named Dream Renee Kardashian. However, after a rushed engagement, it was no surprise that the couple announced their split by the end of that same year. Chyna had left him, moving out of their mansion and taking their daughter with her. Though they continued an on-again, off-again relationship, they were unable to properly reconcile, which led to a highly publicized lawsuit.
According to The Wrap, Kardashian famously took to Instagram accusing Chyna of cheating on him, supposedly sleeping with eight men in less than a month. She (clapped back?) with accusations that he was apparently “beating her”.
Most of Kardashian’s income comes from his salary for appearing in Keeping Up With The Kardashians. At one point, the personality’s yearly salary was a minimum of $1 million dollars. In 2018, his contract changed and instead of being paid a yearly salary, he would earn $50,000 per episode. On top of the primary show, Kardashian has appeared in many of the spin-offs too, and in 2016, the star scored his own reality series, Rob & Chyna, which followed the pair’s relationship as they were preparing to welcome their child in to the world. Though the show only lasted for one season, he likely still earned around $500-700,000 from his appearances.
Outside of his work on reality TV, Kardashian is a successful businessman and has worked with several companies to endorse their products, including Perfect Skin, Rival Spot, and he even has his own line of socks. The TV personality was also a judge for Miss USA 2012. Of course, Rob Kardashian is far from the most successful member of the family, as the girls all earn tens of millions of dollars per year from their endorsement deals alone. His big sister, Kim Kardashian is a billionaire and his younger half-sister, Kylie, is also almost there. However, Rob has still managed to find a modicum of success, which can mostly be attributed to the family that he was born in to. Not only does his family grant him contacts in almost every industry and the entertainment sector, but they have so much wealth that he is able to afford to turn any hobby into a potential business opportunity.
Of course, it isn’t just his family that has helped Rob achieve the success that he currently enjoys, he is also business savvy. On top of that, he followed in his father’s footsteps by studying law at the University of Southern California, and when watching his success on Dancing with the Stars, it shows just how determined this Kardashian really is to succeed.
