Model, television personality, and socialite, Blac Chyna (real name Angela Renée White) rose to fame when she appeared as a stunt double for Nicki Minaj in a video Monster by Kanye West in 2010. Later, Drake name-dropped the model in Miss Me and her popularity landed her a couple of modeling jobs including the cover of Dimepiece, Straight Stunning, and Black Men’s magazine.
Chyna is widely recognized for her appearance on E!’s Keeping Up with the Kardashians and her spin-off show with then-boyfriend Rob Kardashian; Rob & Chyna. The reality TV star joined OnlyFans in 2020 but revealed in 2023 that she decided to leave the platform following her conversion to Christianity. Chyna dated rapper Tyga in 2011 and in 2014, the couple decided to part ways. She went on to reveal what was the last straw for her that made her walk away from the relationship.
Blac Chyna says Tyga’s relationship with Kylie Jenner was why she ended things
On her appearance on Nick Viall’s The Viall Files, Blac Chyna admitted that when her ex-fiancé Tyga started dating beauty mogul Kylie Jenner; it felt like a betrayal to her. She said while explaining to Nick Viall about her past relationship:
“I feel like it ran its course. And then he started talking to Kylie at the time. I think she was like 16, or something. And we were engaged and stuff, so that’s kind of what ended it.”
The former couple met on the sets of the rapper’s music video Rack City, and started dating in 2011. The pair welcomed their first child, King Cario, in 2012 and eventually parted ways in 2014. Following their split, the rapper was spotted hanging out with Kylie Jenner on her 17th birthday. The duo confirmed their relationship status a year later after Jenner turned 18.
Upon asking how Blac Chyna found out about Tyga and Jenner’s relationship, she said,
“I feel like the same way everybody else did; the Internet… the Internet can be brutal.”
The former OnlyFans model went on to reveal that when Tyga’s friends threw her out of his house, she realized that it was over for them. She added that she never talked about her relationship with him but now feels people need to hear her side.
Chyna mentioned to Nick Viall during the interview that a lot of time had passed since everything happened. She went on to acknowledge that her kids bring her the most joy and that they have helped her to be the woman she is today. Blac Chyna, who also shares a daughter named Dream with Rob Kardashian, added that she is grateful for both of her kids.
Blac Chyna on her former relationship affecting her friendship with Kim Kardashian
Chyna revealed on The Viall Files that she had initially been friends with Kim Kardashian. However, after Tyga started dating Kylie Jenner, things got complicated with Kardashian. She said during the interview,
“Me and Kim, we were really good friends. I was on her show and all this stuff like that. We lived in the same community. And then her little sister started talking to Tyga, which was kinda crazy because she was underage and then everybody came at me sand started attacking me.”
Chyna shared with Viall that no one saw the betrayal she went through at the time, pointing out that the public was attacking her even though it was Kylie Jenner who had gotten involved with Tyga, who at the time was engaged to Chyna.
Things got complicated for them when Chyna was linked to Rob Kardashian, and in January 2016, the duo made their relationship official via social media. Kardashian proposed to Chyna in April of the same year, and in May, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child together. However, their romance hit a pause after eight months, and they called off their engagement.
During an interview with ET last year, Blac Chyna dwelled upon her co-parenting relationship with her exes and shared that as people and situations change, one gets to see the situation for what it is. The model mentioned that for her, her daughter Dream and son King are both utterly important. The model lastly added that, as a parent, she only cares about her kids being good and happy at all times.
