Branded rude by some Kardashian fans, Kendall Jenner’s 2020 blowup with Corey Gamble and her sister tells a different story—one of drawing a hard line. Inside the family clash that split the fandom and why her stance still sparks debate.

Some viewers love to slap the word 'rude' on Kendall Jenner. Personally, I see someone who pushes back when she feels disrespected. And if you remember the 2020 blow-up with Corey Gamble and Kylie, you know exactly where that label came from. Now Season 7 of The Kardashians is back on Hulu, Kendall is getting unusually candid, and yes, her love life might be circling the block again.

That 2020 fight, cleaned up and explained

Flashback to the night Kendall, Kylie, and Kris Jenner's boyfriend Corey Gamble got into it. People reported the argument escalated and turned physical after Kylie refused to let their driver drop Kendall off. The whole thing spilled onto an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, where Kendall said Corey cursed at her during the scuffle. Later, she called him expecting an apology. What she got was... not that.

  • Kylie reportedly wouldn't stop the car to let Kendall out, tensions rose, and things turned physical (via People).
  • On KUWTK, Kendall said Corey cursed at her during the chaos.
  • Kendall called Corey afterward looking for an apology. Instead, he doubled down and called her rude.

Corey to Kendall: 'You have been a rude person for years. You're an a**hole when you feel like it... You don't apologize for nothing.'

Kendall: 'Just because I don't kiss your a** doesn't mean I'm an a**hole. I just don't f*** with you. The fact that I can't even get an apology.'

Eventually, everyone cooled off. Kendall and Kylie even poked fun at it on Twitter later. Messy, but very on-brand family TV.

Season 7 is here, and Kendall is surprisingly open

The Kardashians Season 7 has already rolled in with big swings, including a Kim Kardashian brain aneurysm storyline and a much-discussed appearance. But the standout from Kendall this week is how blunt she gets about her past.

Kendall on where she lost her virginity (and growing up Jenner)

Walking through the old Calabasas house, Kendall casually pointed to a room and said, 'I lost my virginity in that room.' When Kris asked if that meant her bedroom, Kendall clarified, nope: 'I actually didn't. It was at his house.'

In her confessional, Kendall framed it in context: Kris had a laid-back approach by the time Kendall and Kylie came along, and as the youngest of six, Mom 'had no energy for us anymore.' She also admitted she and Kylie used to sneak off to smoke weed in a cabana on the property. Fans seemed to appreciate the honesty. It reads less like shock value and more like: here is what it was actually like in that house.

So... are Kendall and Devin Booker back?

Maybe. In September 2025, Kendall and her ex, Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker, were spotted leaving the same New York City hotel separately. No one has confirmed anything, but the sightings suggest they are spending time together privately (via People).

Quick refresher: Kendall and Devin dated for about two years before splitting in November 2022. By February 2024, People had sources saying they were slowly navigating a restart. Throughout the relationship, they kept it mostly off the grid, with the occasional affectionate post. If they are testing the waters again, it looks like the same low-key approach.

Where this leaves the 'rude' debate

If calling someone for an apology after a chaotic night makes you 'rude,' then sure. But what I see is Kendall drawing a line and not budging when she feels disrespected. Agree or disagree, it makes for good TV, and Season 7 is already delivering.

The Kardashians Season 7 Episode 2 hits Hulu (US) on October 30, 2025.
