Kourtney Kardashian reveals who is in the ‘Not Kourtney’ group: ‘Kim threw us all under the bus
Kourtney Kardashian is firmly refuting the notion put forth by her sister, Kim Kardashian, regarding the existence of an ‘anti-Kourtney’ group chat among her close friends. The latest episode of ‘The Kardashians’ shed light on this internal conflict, highlighting that even celebrity families are not immune to internal tensions.
In the season four premiere, the two sisters, Kourtney, 44, and Kim, 42, engaged in a heated exchange over the phone. What triggered their argument? Kourtney believed that Kim’s collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana on a nineties-themed collection bore a striking resemblance to her own wedding theme in Positano, Italy, a few months earlier.
Kim escalated the situation by alleging that some of Kourtney’s close friends were part of a ‘Not Kourtney’ WhatsApp chat, where they presumably discussed her behind her back.
Kourtney wasted no time countering this claim. She took to Instagram to share screenshots and messages as evidence, revealing a conversation between her close friends, Allie Rizzo Sartiano and Simon Huck, who playfully addressed the alleged chat.
Allie jokingly suggested, “Should I soft launch the YASS Kourtney group chat?” Simon responded with a mixture of humor and exasperation, stating, “OMG please! These trolls keep DM’ing me accusing me of being on the other chat.”
The conversation continued with Allie humorously expressing their collective aversion to “meaningless endless chit chat,” while Simon lamented, “Kim threw us all under the bus when there was not one actual friend on the chat.”
The tension between the sisters appears to be rooted in Kourtney’s recent transformations following her May 2022 marriage to musician Travis Barker. Kim confronted Kourtney during their phone argument, stating, “You’re a different person. We all talk about it,” alluding to the infamous ‘Not Kourtney’ chat, which allegedly included their sisters Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie.
The conversation took a more personal turn when Kim suggested that Kourtney’s children had expressed concerns about their mother to her. In response, Kourtney, visibly emotional, labeled Kim an “egotistical narcissist” and candidly expressed her feelings: “You’re just a witch and I hate you.”
Public opinion on the matter is predictably divided. While some followers echoed Kim’s sentiments about Kourtney’s changing identity, others staunchly supported her.
One critic wrote, “The problem isn’t Kim. The problem is you don’t know who you are.” Another added, “That one girl who turns into whoever she dates… Why did she take Travis’ whole personality?”
Yet, many stood by Kourtney, sympathizing with her predicament. “Sorry Kourtney for your sisters and friends being so mean to you,” one supporter consoled. “Cut them off and be happy that’s not real family.”
Another offered words of comfort amid the promotion for Kourtney’s Boohoo collaboration, saying, “You look beautiful in your pregnancy. It is sad to read about the issues you are having with Kim. Just be true to yourself as you cannot choose your family but you can choose your friends.”
