Khloe Accidentally Posted Rob At His Daughter’s Birthday
The reality television family is known for going all-out for birthdays, and they didn’t disappoint when it came to Dream’s recent soiree. On Friday, Khloe Kardashian shared footage from the 7th birthday party, which had a spa theme.
While the focus of one video showed Dream and her guests trying to break a 7-shaped pinata, eagle-eyed fans noticed Rob observing the fun in the background of his video. The Arthur George founder was dressed casually in a baseball hat, black t-shirt, and shorts paired with sneakers.
Though he used to be in the spotlight, especially during the early seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Rob has been notably absent from public events as well as social media since before the COVID pandemic. To date, he hasn’t even appeared on his family’s new Hulu show The Kardashians, which debuted in 2021.

“Rob will NOT be appearing in their Hulu show because he does not want his life or the life of his daughter to be a part of it. Everyone respects this decision,” a source said at the time.
“Doing the show with E! caused him nothing but pain and hardships as he had several hospitalizations,” they added, referring to Rob’s public struggle with his weight and diabetes.
Rob still has a verified Instagram account with over 3 million followers, which mainly posts content to promote his business ventures as well as his family’s brands. Occasionally, the account shares a rare update on his only child, Dream. Rob’s last IG post was a throwback photo of him and Khloe to mark her birthday in July. He hasn’t shared anything to mark Dream’s birthday, though he’s clearly been celebrating in real life.

Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kylie and Kendall used to have a "type." But their current partners appear to be complete polar opposites.
It’s been widely reported that Rob no long wants to live in the spotlight following his tumultuous split from Blac Chyna in 2016, the same year their short-lived reality show was cancelled. Following their split, the two made various allegations against each other. Rob even leaked Chyna’s nude photos and phone number, which she later sued him over.
The couple also argued over custody of Dream for years. Chyna has accused Rob of failing to pay child support, whereas the Kardashians claim that Dream is with Rob and the rest of their family most of the time.
Even more, Chyna infamously sued several of the Kardashians for $100 million, claiming they were the reason her reality show got axed after breaking-up with Rob. Chyna lost the case last year, though she vowed to refile.
