Kim and Kourtney Kardashian have some beef. Fans have been speculating that the sibling duo have had tension brewing for a while, but season three of “The Kardashians” on Hulu dives deeper into the source of their current clash — and it has everything to do with Dolce & Gabbana and Kourtney’s 2022 wedding.
For context, Kourtney partnered with the fashion brand for her lavish Italian wedding to Travis Barker in May 2022. Soon after, Kim began a partnership of her own with the brand, and apparently Kourtney wasn’t happy about it.
In the June 15 episode of “The Kardashians,” Kourtney had an emotional conversation with sister Kendall Jenner about the situation. “I feel like there’s an abundance of opportunities,” she explained. “It’s not about business, it’s just there’s so much and it takes precedence over hurting your sister. It’s legit copying my wedding.”
Kourtney also claimed that Kim wasn’t happy at the Italian wedding in May 2022, which makes it even more painful that she copied it. “She wasn’t happy at my wedding. Everyone else was like, ‘Whoa, this is amazing. We’re having the best time.’ She can never give acknowledgment of like, ‘Whoa, this is so amazing,'” Kourtney explained. “She sees everything that I had there and takes it for her own, and she doesn’t even see it. She sees it for the dollar signs, but to me, I see it. And I see it like, ‘Oh, you were there, you weren’t happy.'”
“She sees it as like the dollar signs but to me, I see it, and I see it like oh you were there you weren’t happy. Everyone said something to me, all my friends, she’s like spiraling,” Kourtney claimed.
“I do think that like as sisters we also have to understand when someone has a job . . . we have to try and see where this could work for both of us, I guess,” Kendall said. Kourtney said it’s not that her sister needs to get her permission, but, “If I did it to Kim, she would freak out.”
“To me, it was more personal. I think that’s why it hurts my feelings because it was my actual wedding,” Kourtney said. Kendall said she understood “both sides” but was sorry that the situation had ruined Kourtney’s happiness after the wedding.
Later in the same episode, Khloé told Kim that Kourtney was upset. “It’s not rational. . . . It’s not nice, on her end,” Kim said. She continued, “This is the first time I’ve heard that Kourtney is upset about us doing the Dolce show. Like I couldn’t have been more mindful.” She also said that she didn’t do any styles from the wedding “out of respect” for Kourtney. Fans will have to wait and see how the fight shakes out.
The Kardashian family’s decision to partner with Dolce & Gabbana has ruffled some feathers before, but not for the same reasons that upset Kourtney. The brand has a long history of racism and homophobia; for example, cofounders Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana reportedly told Italian magazine Panorama, “We oppose gay adoptions. The only family is the traditional one,” per Quartz. They also came under fire for an ad showing a Chinese model eating Italian food with chopsticks, among other controversies, though neither Kourtney or Kim has addressed these issues.
New episodes of “The Kardashians” season three premiere Thursdays on Hulu.
