Kourtney Kardashian comes out as a lesbian, confirms relationship with Stephanie Shepard: Rumor

Kourtney Kardashian, allegedly, came out as a lesbian today.

MediaTakeOut published the dubious report after Kourtney Kardashian greeted her good friend, Stephanie Shepard on the latter’s birthday.

Kourtney Kardashian fondly calls her friend ‘wife’

On her Instagram account, the mom of three shared a series of photos of herself with Shepard. In her caption, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star called Shepard her wife. However, this nickname is also used by friends that are very close to each other.

“Happy Birthday wife! I love you for life (that rhymed). [And] I feel so grateful for every single second we have together (see stories). Hope you feel special and loved today and every day,” she wrote.

The seemingly innocent birthday greeting was taken out of context by the publication who claimed that Kardashian just confirmed her new relationship.

“Kourtney Kardashian appears to have come out as a lesbian,” the publication claimed.

Rumor debunked

Gossip Cop also debunked the tabloid’s claims by saying that they are not true. Kardashian was in a long-term relationship with Scott Disick. After they called it quits, Kardashian dated Younes Bendjima.

The rumor-debunking site also pointed out that Kardashian has never said anything about being a lesbian. And she wasn’t also being literal when she called Shephard her wife.

Gossip Cop also slammed MediaTakeOut for calling all the photos that celebrities share online as leaks. They said that these photos cannot be leaks when the celebrities themselves are the ones that shared them.

Kourtney Kardashian doesn’t want Kim, Kanye to divorce

Rumors about Kourtney Kardashian have been rife for years. In July, National Enquirer claimed that the KUWTK star begged her sister, Kim to not end her marriage to Kanye West.

“Kim is confused and lonely right now, and she respects Kourt’s advice. And Kourtney’s telling her little sister to wait things out before she makes a decision she’ll regret,” the source said.

Kardashian-Jenner clan struggling financially

In May, Star claimed that Kardashian and her entire family are going broke. A source claimed that the Kardashian-Jenner family’s profit is going down, but their lifestyle is still as lavish as ever.

“It’s been a major reality check for them – and a scary one because they’ve got to start watching every dime. There’s still lots of money flying out the door. They have so many properties and the mortgages are sky-high. If things don’t improve, they’re going to have to downsize,” the source said.

However, none of these claims are true. Kourtney Kardashian and her entire family are doing just fine financially.
