Top 10 Heated Keeping Up with the Kardashians Moments

On a family trip to Palm Springs, both Kylie and Kendall are trying to dress up to go out. And so they want to borrow Kourtney’s clothes. Unfortunately, Kendall struggles to find something she likes, and claims that Kylie’s outfit was actually supposed to be for her. While the fight seems relatively tame for this group, it eventually escalates in a big way. Things get increasingly tense, and a physical altercation between the two can be heard over the phone during the car ride home. While we’re used to seeing Kim, Kourtney, and Khloé argue, it’s clear the Jenner girls also go at it from time to time.

Throughout the course of the show, we’ve seen Khloé and Kim be open about their issues with Kourtney’s work ethic. This causes several heated moments, including this one where Khloé and Kim threaten to fire Kourtney. We’re not sure if they really had the power to do this, but they confronted her because they felt like she wasn’t pulling her own weight. Khloé even explains that while she doesn’t always love sharing every aspect of her life on the show, that’s the gig. Khloé and Kim are obviously sick of picking up their oldest sister’s slack. Still, Kourtney stays firm in her desire to set boundaries and keep her personal life private.

In season 16, we faced the aftermath of a ski trip Kendall invited Kourtney on. The eldest Kardashian sister loves to poke fun at her younger siblings, but in this case it seems like she took it too far. After the trip, both girls talk to Khloé about how the trip went, and she learns that while Kourtney had a great time, Kendall felt that she was being teased. Khloé subsequently becomes the messenger, and everything reaches a boiling point when the feuding duo confront one another. And some rather harsh words are exchanged. Khloé was just trying to mediate, but it looks like she probably should’ve just stayed out of it.

Caitlyn Jenner is at the center of a lot of tense moments in the series. And the Kardashian-Jenner group had a lot to say after her tell-all book was released in 2017. Kim reads the work and is appalled by how Kris is portrayed. It sounds like Caitlyn was very angry and resentful, and made accusations that, according to the rest of the family, are false. She even implied that the matriarch withheld money from her. While there are two sides to every story, it’s obvious that many feelings were hurt by what Caitlyn had to say.

In the later seasons of the show, the battle of Khloé and Kim vs. Kourtney is in full swing. A season 17 trip to Wyoming notably saw Khloé getting mad at Kourtney for her behavior (x-ref). But the sisters’ issues with Kourtney’s attitude started long before that moment. When the girls get together to discuss a baby shower for Kim back in season 15, the tension is palpable. Kourtney seems like she couldn’t care less about the event, and spends most of the interaction looking at her phone. When she does speak, it’s only to insult Khloé’s decor. The latter sister isn’t having any of it, and it’s a moment we won’t soon forget.

The news that Tristan Thompson had cheated on Khloé with Kylie’s best friend Jordyn Woods made waves, and we saw it play out on the show. Needless to say, Khloé feels incredibly betrayed, and snaps. As if things weren’t already bad enough, she also learns that Jordyn is discussing the infidelity on “Red Table Talk.” Oh, and did we mention that her mother knew about the interview? Khloé’s anger is evident, and so is her pain. After all, she reveals that she had actually confided in Jordyn when Tristan was unfaithful during her pregnancy. It wasn’t the first time Thompson had cheated on Khloé, but Jordyn’s bond with the family made the revelation all the more loaded.

Scott Disick is no stranger to drama. And all eyes are on him when Kim realizes he’s hiding a woman in his room during a trip to Dubai. As you can imagine, things get rather fraught and awkward. In the end, Kim busts the bathroom door open with some colorful language and swiftly kicks Scott’s “friend” out. And when Disick subsequently proceeds to covertly bring a woman named Chelsea to Costa Rica, the entire family confronts him. We don’t know if the Scott drama was worse when he was with Kourtney or after they split up. But one thing’s for sure: it’s certainly never a dull moment when he’s around.

Back in the day, before all of the Kardashians became multi-millionaires, there were arguments about things like Kim getting a Bentley. Kourtney and Khloé are a tad bitter about the way everything went down at the car dealership with Kim and discuss their feelings with Rob. Kim overhears them through the door and tries to come inside, but Khloé tries to shut the door on her. Kim instantly goes off by repeatedly hitting her with her purse, before ultimately being driven out of the room. Rob reveals in his confessional that he’s never seen his sisters fight like this. But this was way back in season 2, so they were just getting warmed up.

As you’ve likely noticed, Kourtney often butts heads with her younger sisters. And it’s often due to the fact that she doesn’t place as much importance on their various business endeavors. During the season 15 premiere, she insists that everyone work around her schedule if they want her to be involved in their holiday photoshoot. But let’s just say Kim has absolutely no problem leaving her out. Fed up that Kourtney is making things difficult, Kim gets personal and goes after her sister’s passion and appearance. This may not have been the pair’s most violent blowout, but it was a charged scene, with everything from screaming to insanely meme-able soundbites.

There’s certainly no shortage of arguments about Kourtney’s work ethic, but this one takes the cake. Kim talks about how she and Khloé are always the ones who show up when Kris needs them, even if it’s inconvenient. And Kourtney is done hearing about how she doesn’t do her fair share. She escalates the situation by throwing a bottle at Kim and grabbing her, and her sister does not back down. Khloé tries and fails to keep them apart, but things get out of hand fast. We think every viewer can relate to Kendall’s changing expressions as she watched everything unfold and realized the gravity of the situation. Needless to say, it was a roller coaster ride.
