Was This Why Rob Didn't Go to the Kimye Wedding?

by Jenny Jaffe

In the wake of the biggest, most anticipated, dynasty-building-est wedding since Joffrey Baratheon and Margaery Tyrell, guest lists have been released, dress photos have been leaked, and rumors of drama have spread- especially once the world found out that Rob Kardashian did not attend his sister Kim's wedding to Kanye West.

We knew that something big must have happened just before the wedding got underway, since he attended the pre-nuptial events in Florence in the days before the wedding. But just yesterday, a source may have let slip what it was that lead to the sole Kardashian brother storming out- and it's something a lot of people can relate to.

Apparently, Rob- who's been battling significant weight gain over the past few years- felt too self-conscious to appear in all of the pictures being taken at the wedding, and his reluctance to participate in that famed Kardashian camera-loving lead to a blow out with his family that caused him to leave before the ceremony.

The source also claims that his family tried as best as they could to encourage him to stay, and were "heartbroken" when he chose to fly home instead.

We feel for Rob- when you've been body-shamed as much as he has, keeping your head up and smiling for the cameras can feel like an insurmountable task. Also, he missed the wedding of the century! Good thing there will be no shortage of wedding videos to watch later.
