Khloe Kardashian Talks Living With Brother Rob Kardashian
Khloe reveals, "I wouldn't have it any other way. I love having him with me."
— -- Through the ups and downs of Khloe Kardashian's marriage to Lamar Odom, her brother Rob Kardashian has been there, and most of the time under the same roof.
In a recent interview with Complex magazine, Khloe, 31, talked openly about her split from Odom, and now in an uncut version of the interview posted Wednesday, she goes into more detail about her relationship with her younger brother, Rob, 28.
"Rob lives with me now and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love having him with me," Khloe told the magazine.
In fact, Rob lived with Khloe and Odom throughout their marriage, only moving out toward the end. After she split from Odom, she moved into Rob's three-bedroom townhouse until she bought her new home and Rob came to live with her.
"I have a big a** house and I wanted it so he could feel, like, comfortable," Kardashian said. "He's going through a hard time now, and it's behind gates. With this crazy lifestyle you have to think of places where you can still have your freedom."
Even though Rob is sometimes tempted to move out, Khloe always convinces him to stay.
"He's a man and 28, and I'm sure it doesn't sound good to say, 'Oh, I live with my sister,' but it's not because he has to," Kardashian said. "I'm like, 'Put this into perspective: Your friends live at home with their parents because they can't do anything else. Your sister’s literally holding you captive and actively making you. So if that makes you feel better, say that all you want.'"
Khloe admits she's maternal when it comes to her baby brother.
"I just bought him a rug for his bedroom, and he was so cute. He'll text me and tell me how much he likes it, and he notices things," she said. "So, I like it. I call him my son as a joke."
