The Kardashian family generally seems like a very tight-knit clan. But many fans cannot help but notice that there is one person who often gets pushed to the sideline: Kourtney Kardashian.

The eldest sister has been involved in a number of feuds with her siblings. These days, it seems as if her family members often like to gang up on her.

But why is it that the Kardashian family often publicly hate on Kourtney? Do they genuinely dislike her or is there another reason? Here’s what we know.

Kendall Jenner recently named Kourtney Kardashian as the worst parent

On an episode of The Late Late Show, Kendall Jenner, who is the only one in her family to not have children, was asked to rank her siblings from best to worst parents. Jenner noted that her siblings are “all amazing” to their kids, but she eventually did come up with a list.

Jenner said: “I’d say Rob is Number one. He’s so good to his daughter, [Dream]… Then it would be, like, Khloe, Kim, Kylie, Kourtney.”

Jenner did not go into detail about why she ranked Kourtney last. But it’s slightly shady to rank her the last when she was the first to have kids.

Kim Kardashian had a similar experience to Jenner. Back in 2017, Kim was asked to name her top three sisters on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and Kim said “Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie.” A lot of people wondered why Kourtney was the one being left out, but Kim never revealed the reason behind it.

Nevertheless, Kim and Kourtney have fought a lot over the years that it’s easy to see why Kim might not be a huge fan of her eldest sister.

Last year, Kim called Kourtney “the least interesting to look at” and “the most boring” sister. In another instance, Kim also accused Kourtney of not being dedicated enough to their show and lacking professionalism.

To be fair, Kourtney has said some nasty things about Kim as well, such as calling her a “fake humanitarian.” However, Kim always seems to clap back with more mean things about Kourtney.

In response to the “fake humanitarian” comment, Kim said: “I actually do sh*t for the world and you f*cking fake it all day long and act like, ‘Oh! There’s people dying, Kim.’ And what the f*ck are you doing about it?”

Khloe Kardashian has mostly been on Kim Kardashian’s side during feuds

Khloe Kardashian has not directly clashed with Kourtney as much as Kim has. These days, it seems as if Khloe is often on Kim’s side whenever Kourtney and Kim are feuding.

Khloe has called Kourtney “b*tchy.” And, in response to Kourtney not being dedicated to their family’s show, said that Kourtney “could f*cking shove Kardashian up her f*cking vagina.”

Why does the Kardashian family publicly hate on Kourtney Kardashian?

It’s not clear why the Kardashians like to publicly turn against Kourtney. Perhaps she is different than her siblings, which means that she frequently butt heads with them.

However, many fans believe that Kourtney has changed a lot since Keeping Up With the Kardashian first premiered. A lot of viewers think that her personality nowadays is very grating, with one person even calling her “so delusional and up her own a**.”

It’s possible that her family members also think something along this line, and it could be why Kourtney does not get along as well with her siblings anymore.

In any case, Kourtney has recently decided to take a break from filming for the time being, so these scream matches between her and the other sisters that fans have gotten used to seeing will be rarer from now on.
