There is no doubt Keeping Up With the Kardashians has featured many interesting characters over the last 14 years. The show is top-rated for the drama surrounding its cast, even though it's said to be mostly scripted. However, years later, there's one incident that still rings a bell in fans' heads. In the first season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, fans got the chance to see a homeless man named Shorty, who has not yet made another appearance. What exactly happened to him since 2007?
In the first season of KUWTK, things were just getting started for the Kardashian-Jenner family. This season introduced the fans to the characters they know today. Shorty was someone who fans could've easily mistaken for a recurring character on the show, but he was not. The man was first seen in the parking lot of the DASH store. Since customers weren't super happy with his presence there, they asked him to be removed. Khloé Kardashian then asked Shorty to leave. Surprisingly, the man just picked up his bag and left without arguing, which probably made Khloé feel bad. After that, she ran up to the man to return his sweater, which he had dropped. Later, the youngest Kardashian talked to her mom, Kris Jenner, and sister, Kourtney Kardashian, about the situation. The whole thing quickly became this rescue mission, where Khloé found the man and invited him to their house. At that point in the season, the sisters helped Shorty cleaned up, got him a haircut, gave him clothes, and took him to the dentist. After his brief presence on the show, Shorty bid the sisters farewell and went on with his life.
According to Republic World, the exact whereabouts of Shorty today are unknown. However, some Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans have spotted him at The Commons in Los Angeles. When an Instagram account posted about him, the Good American founder promptly replied, "If anyone knows where he is, please let me know." Check out the screenshot of her message reshared by @khloekvideo:
There's no denying there is a soft spot for Shorty in Khloé's heart. A few fans commented on a YouTube video (via Hayu) further giving clues as to the location of the one-time reality star. One fan said, "Shorty, my best friend... he was working at a laundry but now his [sic] all over the place walking around, funny and happy as always." Another one wrote, "He works at my neighborhood laundromat. He looks good!"
Even though the 36-year-old E! star Khloé said she has been looking for the man for years, she is also dealing with many ups and downs in her personal life. Khloé has recently been working on her relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Tristan Thompson, and taking care of her two-year-old daughter, True Thompson.
