Ever since Keeping Up with the Kardashians started airing back in the noughties, the reality TV dynasty has been inescapable. The Kardashians is now airing its second season on Hulu, entertaining viewers with plenty of drama. But, love them or hate them, one thing’s for sure – the famous family has faced some major controversies over the years, from cheating affairs to lawsuits. So which were the biggest?
We take a look at 12 of the Kardashian-Jenner’s most shocking scandals.
1. Kim Kardashian’s leaked sex tape with her ex-boyfriend Ray J
She addressed it in the very first episode of the reality show, saying she made the tape because she was “horny and [she] felt like it”.
Ahead of the show’s series finale in 2021, Kardashian spoke with the Los Angeles Times about the tape and dismissed the idea that the scandal was the reason the family was given the show in the first place. However, she did explain how the show allowed her to work through the controversy and tell her side of the story.
“I do think that, obviously, as producers, I’m sure they loved it. And loved [us] wanting to talk about the elephant in the room. And I probably wouldn’t have, unless it was for the show,” she said.
