Rumors have been floating around since December 2016 that Kourtney Kardashian, 38, is dating Younes Bendjima, 24, an Algerian model who is 14 years her junior. Bendjima is also a former boxer and lives in New York. The two met in Paris in October 2016, after Kim suffered a violent mugging in the French capital. They were even spotted celebrating Younes' birthday together earlier in May this year.
But the oldest Kardashian sister has been reluctant to confirm the relationship. Now Kim and Khloe want answers. A report by E! Online provides some facts for this article.
On the newest episode of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" that will air this Sunday, on December 10, the two sisters try to trick Kourtney by pretending to set her up on a date with actor Chris Hemsworth (who is already married), to test her loyalty to Younes.
So what happened?
Kim starts out by saying that she has found the "most perfect guy" for Kourtney. Khloe then describes Hemsworth as a good-looking guy with a "12-pack and big muscles." Kim goes on to add that he has a scruffy beard and is a really good actor.
The two then tell Kourtney that they are actually talking about Thor, the Marvel character that Hemsworth is most famous for. Kourtney eventually responds and asks the sisters if Thor is actually interested in going out with her. She goes on to make an excuse that she's too busy to date, even when Kim tried to make it more enticing by saying they could meet at a "chill barbecue" she'd host. Finally, Kim calls out Kourtney by saying that they have already noticed her going out with a certain someone, referring to beau Younes Bendjima. Khloe also chimes in, "So you hang out with this guy but you won't validate anything to us? That's weird." Kourtney's answer is just an unsatisfactory "Umm." But Kim thinks that Kourtney rejecting the date is definitely a sign she has a boyfriend.
What about her ex Scott Disick?
Scott has always been unhappy that Kourtney is dating other men, preferring to ignore the romances of his ex-girlfriend. Kourtney had dumped Disick in 2016 after photos of him cheating with another woman were found online. Since then, the former couple has frequently sparked on-again-off-again relationship rumors. The two continue to co-parent their three children: seven-year-old Mason, four-year-old Penelope, and two-year-old Reign Disick. But it looks like he's finally moving on. According to E! Online, he has recently been seen traveling the world with Lionel Richie's daughter, Sophia Richie. They are currently spending time in Miami, Florida, for the city's annual Art Basel week.
