The trial of Blac Chyna against the Kardashians has begun.
Chyna, who was born Angela White, has been suing the Kardashian family for nearly five years, including her ex-fiancé Rob Kardashian, his sisters Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Kendall Jenner, and his mother Kris Jenner.
You haven’t been following along? We’ve got you covered. Chyna filed a lawsuit in 2017 stating that her family was to blame for her reality TV show’s demise. Before parting in December 2016, she and Rob featured in their own E! spinoff, Rob & Chyna. Chyna claims in her lawsuit that the Kardashians were behind the show’s second-season cancellation and is suing them for defamation.
She is also suing Rob for assault, violence, and harassment at the same time. As a result, Chyna is claiming damages of up to $100 million.

Kris allegedly texted the showrunner, calling Chyna “dumb,” accusing her of “been drunk for three days,” describing her as “very ghetto,” and proposing they “dump the b—ch,” according to Chyna’s lawyer.
Chyna’s Alleged Texts to Rob Kardashian
Michael Rhodes, the Kardashians’ lawyer, presented claimed February 2017 texts from Chyna to Rob, which were exchanged just a few months after their divorce, during his opening statement. In addition to texting “F U,” Rhodes alleges that Chyna also texted “It’s over” and branded Rob a “fat bitch,” adding that his “disgusting sex is dreadful.” The claimed texts also arrived on the same day that E! execs were “still fighting to save the show,” according to Rhodes.
