Model Blac Chyna has taken the stand to testify about Rob Kardashian amidst her trial with The Kardashians, and while testifying, the star began to cry. The tumultuous relationship between the two dates back to January 2016 when Chyna, formally known as Angela White, shared an image of the two cuddling on her Instagram page. About a month later, the two sparked engagement rumors when the model posted what seemed like an engagement ring on her finger, but these rumors were debunked shortly after when Rob deleted all the pictures with Chyna from his Instagram page. But this break from each other did not last for long, and the two were officially engaged in April and were expecting a child in May.
The relationship continued to have roller coaster moments, and much of it was captured on Rob & Chyna, a reality show that featured their relationship, which premiered on E! in September 2016. It was December of the same year that things went further downhill between the two because on December 14, the couple had a physical altercation in which Chyna allegedly tried to strangle Rob with an iPhone charger and also put a gun to his head. Chyna moved out of the home after this violent bout, but in the following year, the couple continued to deal with each other and even attended therapy sessions together. In July 2017, Rob posted explicit pictures of Chyna for several reasons, and Chyna filed a restraining order against him. Despite these events occurring some years ago, they are now being rehashed in court, and apparently, the wounds are still fresh.
Based on reports from TMZ, while speaking about the images that were posted by Rob, Chyna began to cry. Michael Rhodes, the lawyer for the KarJenners, questioned Chyna about the images as well as the filed restraining order. It was at this point the model began to cry when she said, "It was the only way I could stop him from posting pictures of me on the Internet." She was also questioned about her appearance on ABC's Good Morning America, where she spoke about the restraining order and said that Rob would have to respect the law since he does not respect her. On this, she said, "I was already public. I'm supposed to just not say anything and take it? I wanted everyone to hear my side of the story. He posted nudes of my entire body." The emotion-filled testimony became too much for Chyna when her explicit images, which were placed in a binder, were shown to her. Upon seeing them, the overwhelmed star asked for a break.
The statements Chyna has been making on the stand continue to make headlines. One of the issues being discussed in court is the matter of the alleged physical altercation that happened between the former couple. Chyna's attorney, Lynne Cianni, initially said that the two only had a heated argument. But according to Chyna's testimony, she did put a gun to Rob's head and placed a charger around his neck, but she stated it was misinterpreted satire. Elaborating on the topic, the star said the cord was placed around his neck to get his attention while he was playing video games. Concerning the gun, Chyna alleged that she put the gun to his head to jokingly threaten him about not leaving the relationship. In reference to Corey Gamble separating the fight, she claimed that Rob had taken her phone and was refusing to return it, which provoked her to anger. She damaged a gingerbread house, television and door because of her anger and called Kris Jenner for assistance, but Corey showed up instead. He got KUWTK alum Rob to go to his car, and Chyna moved from that house to an apartment.
Despite being teary-eyed in court, Chyna continues to promote her swimwear line on her Instagram page. The trial between the reality star and The Kardashians began on April 18 and is expected to run for 10 days. Both parties have been quiet about their feelings about the trial, and fans continue to await the final verdict.
The Kardashians streams Thursdays on Hulu.
