Rob Kardashian, whom had fallen on hard times with chronic depression and weight gain, appears to be turning a new leaf. He thanks his improving mental and physical health to none other than Blac Chyna, as the two made their relationship public earlier this year.
“Rob has fallen hard for Blac Chyna. She makes him super happy and this is the first time that he’s felt so optimistic about life in years,” according to a source that spoke to People.
The 27-year-old model has been a positive influence on Rob Kardashian’s overall health and emotional stability, according to the source. The reality star had recently gone through a health scare after being hospitalized and diagnosed with diabetes back in December 2015. However, his problems with depression can be traced as far back as 2013.
“She helps keep Rob in check with his health and makes sure he is abiding by his diet and exercising,” The unnamed source continued. “He feels there’s strong potential for this relationship to go a long way but for now they are very content and compliment each other really well.”
Blac Chyna is currently not in good terms with the Kardashian family. She and Kim Kardashian were once close friends until Chyna’s ex-fiancée, Tyga, started to date Kylie Jenner.
Needless to say, that has not stopped Rob Kardashian from enjoying a fruitful relationship with the model.
“Rob seems really happy with Blac Chyna. He’s really not thinking about what his family thinks, or how everyone else feels,” the source stated. “He’s had a really hard couple of years and so if she makes him feel good, that’s all that matters right now.”
