Why is Blac Chyna suing the Kardashians?
Black Chyna’s beef with the Kardashian clan started nearly five years ago.
In July of 2017, the show, Rob & Chyna, was put “on hold” by E! News.
Following this decision, Chyna sued the Kardashians for allegedly interfering with her career in reality TV.
Chyna’s attorney, Lynne Ciani, told Us Weekly in a 2020 statement that she would “seek millions in compensatory and punitive damages from Kris [Jenner], Kim [Kardashian], Khloé [Kardashian], and Kylie [Jenner] for defamation, intentional interference with contract, and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage.”
On April 19, 2022, Chyna finally got her day in court with each Kardashian defendant in attendance.
A few weeks prior to the trial, Chyna took to Twitter to update fans on the status of her lawsuit:
“When they got my #1 hit show killed… that not only hurt me financially and emotionally, that hurt my beautiful KIDS.”
She added: “I am so thankful that a jury will finally listen to what really happened behind closed doors — the lies that were told and the damage that was done.”
