After Blac was arrested at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on Friday for public intoxication and drug possession, Rob raced to be with the model and picked her up. After Khloe and Kris realized they were wasting their breath in trying to dissuade Rob, they let him go. Our source continues, “But after trying to reason with Rob, Khloe and Kris knew they were fighting a losing battle and were resigned to let him leave.”
Rob is believed to have driven 26 hours to pick up Blac, TMZ claimed. Blac then posted a Snapchat photo of herself standing in front of Rob’s Bentley on Jan. 30. “Bye Texas,” she captioned the photo. She later posted an Instagram video of herself riding in the passenger seat of a car.
Rob’s latest actions and his whirlwind romance with Blac has his family concerned. HollywoodLife.com previously told you EXCLUSIVELY that Kris and Kim Kardashian believe Rob is standing by Blac to “spite” his family.
