Kourtney Kardashian's Boyfriend Was With Her During Kim Kardashian's Paris Robbery
Kourtney Kardashian and Younes Bendjima just recently went public with their romance; however, during the latest episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the 38-year-old star revealed that her relationship with the model actually began last year.
While speaking to her younger sister, Khloe Kardashian, about the way she and her 24-year-old beau met in Paris in October 2016, Kardashian said that she thought Bendjima "hated" her before they hit it off. She then revealed that her first encounter with Bendjima happened just before her sister Kim was robbed at gunpoint in her Paris hotel.
"You met him in Paris when you were with Kim for fashion week?" Khloe Kardashian asked, according to a report by the Daily Mail on Nov. 6.
"Yeah, we like walked into a bar and Stephanie [Sheppard] was across from me and she kept going, 'This guy's cute over here,'" Kourtney Kardashian recalled.
Kardashian continued on, explaining that while Bendjima was friendly with her friends and the security team, he didn't say "hi" to her initially. Then, after she asked him why he hated her while drunk, he grabbed her hand and told her that they were leaving. The following night, he was much friendlier and actually showed aggression towards Kardashian, which she loved.
"Younes was like, 'Bring your a** here,'" she said.
As Kardashian's trip continued, she began spending more time with Bendjima. When she learned of Kim's robbery, which saw the reality star being robbed of millions of dollars worth of jewelry, he was at her side and vowed to help her and her sisters get to the bottom of what happened.
"He was like, 'I'm not leaving you guys,' and he like had to translate everything," Kardashian told her sister.
Kardashian and Bendjima were seen together frequently in the months that followed the robbery. Earlier this year, they began facing rumors of a pregnancy, and months later, Kardashian and Bendjima confirmed their romance with a cozy outing in Cannes, France. Last month, Bendjima served as Kardashian's date at the launch of her new clothing line in Los Angeles.
