Speaking in a Los Angeles courtroom on Wednesday, Rob Kardashian sat across from his former fiancé, Blac Chyna, as he told jurors she repeatedly put a gun to his head during a domestic incident in 2016.
Dressed in a black shirt and holding a water bottle, the male Kardashian sat for cross-examination, following in the footsteps of his famous sisters, who testified in the high-profile case earlier this week.
Chyna, whose real name is Angela White, is suing Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner for $100 million in damages. She claims they unfairly treated her to E! executives five years ago following their split from Rob Kardashian, which led to the cancellation of their Keeping Up With The Kardashians spinoff series Rob & Chyna. The Kardashian-Jenners deny these allegations.
When asked about his current relationship with Chyna, Kardashian told the court in no uncertain terms, “I have a child with her.” In his testimony, he repeatedly referred to Chyna as “the mother of my child” or “her client.”
Lynne Ciani, an attorney for Chyna, questioned Kardashian about the beginnings of his and Chyna’s relationship, which began in late 2015. The couple quickly became engaged and shortly thereafter welcomed the birth of their daughter Dream. The turbulent relationship between the two ended in late 2016 after an alleged domestic incident took center stage during the first week and a half of the trial.
Rob says there was ‘no true love’
Kardashian told the court that his and Chyna’s problems began when they announced they were expecting a baby. Kardashian’s family was planning a baby shower, but Chyna wasn’t invited, so he decided not to attend either.
“She was upset and that’s why I took her side because of my family and we had a separate baby shower with her friends,” he said.
“Before that, there were a hundred different times that she was disrespectful to my family,” Kardashian added.
Kardashian told the jury that he met Chyna “probably at the worst point of my life” after leaving the hospital for diabetes treatment.
“There was no real love,” he said. “The engagement and the photos were everything for her to present a show the next day.”
Cianni finally quizzed Kardashian on December 15, 2016 about the domestic dispute between the two, which took place at a Hidden Hills home owned by Kardashian’s younger half-sister, Kylie Jenner, where the couple had been living at the time.
That night started out “humorously and playfully,” Kardashian said, as the couple threw money at each other, as seen in Snapchat videos shown in court. Kardashian said after a night of cocaine and alcohol, Chyna began physically assaulting him in an assault that lasted throughout the night and into the next day.
He claimed Chyna attacked him with a 6ft metal pole and damaged almost every room in the house. Kardashian also accused Chyna of twice pointing an unloaded gun at his head and punching him multiple times.
“I would say there were five domestic incidents that night,” he said. “It’s no joke to point a gun at someone’s head. She tried to kill me.”
Last week, Chyna testified that the physical confrontation consisted of the couple “just being silly” and celebrating the Rob & Chyna renewal, but that the mood changed when Kardashian stole her phone, which she says was a Symptom of his jealousy was present throughout the relationship.
Kris Jenner’s partner, Corey Gamble, told the court Tuesday that he saw Chyna brutally punch Kardashian during the fight and saw her yell at Kardashian with a rod in hand.
“This woman put a gun to my head multiple times,” Kardashian said Wednesday. “It’s not true love. That’s not how my father raised me.”
Kardashian told the court that there was “no happiness” between the two. Still, he said, even after the physical altercation, he has a “big heart.”
“I never ratted on her. I drove from California to Texas to get her out of jail for putting ecstasy on a plane. I didn’t want her to deal with the paparazzi.”
A separate but related case involving nude photos Kardashian posted of his ex-fiancée after their split in early 2017 is currently being tried.
