Kylie Jenner, the most recent family member who took the stand on Monday at the Los Angeles Superior Court in the family’s defamation trial against Blac Chyna.
Kylie Jenner shared with the jury and the judge that she had heard that Blac Chyna tended to abuse drugs and alcohol and about her violent nature, so as a sister, she and her then boyfriend Tyga went to Rob Kardashian to express their concerns, but ultimately to end the relationship or pursue it was in his hand, and Rob did not heed her warnings and continued with the relationship.
Kylie Jenner mentioned that her then-boyfriend, Tyga, who was also Blac Chyna’s ex, had shared that he never planned on marrying Blac along with some incidents with Kylie where he mentioned the abuse he faced while being in a relationship with her. Kylie Jenner mentioned that Tyga had showcased a 6-inch knife scar to her and said that it was given by Blac Chyna after she was under the influence.
The beauty mogul also shared with the court that she knew who Blac Chyna was because she befriended her sister Kim Kardashian, but she did not consider her a friend until Rob Kardashian started dating her in January 2016. The former couple had their reality show, which, according to Blac Chyna, was picked up for season two in December, so they spent all night celebrating until their celebration turned into a violent fight, after which Blac wrapped the phone cord around Rob Kardashian’s neck to almost strangling him, about which Blac testified and said she was being playful, but Kris Jenner mentioned that she had tried to kill him.

Kylie Jenner, who saw the aftermath of their altercation as it was reportedly her house they were living in, mentioned that Rob used the words that she was trying to kill him. She explained that Rob explained to her that he was playing his video game when she came and wrapped the cord around his neck in order to strangle him. The mother of two said that she assumed that Rob Kardashian was very upset with how things had went down with Blac Chyna.
On Monday, Lynne Ciani asked Kylie if she had ever felt anger towards Blac. Kylie responded that probably after she heard about the attack on her brother. The Kylie Cosmetics founder also spoke about the threatening texts she received from Blac Chyna while she was dating Tyga and mentioned that she sent her a bunch of devil emojis and said something like, "Counting down the days until she could beat her." Kylie stated that she did not report the threatening texts because she thought they were empty threats and she assumed that Blac was high when she texted her.
On asking about how much the relationship between Rob and Chyna was worth, Kylie mentioned that she did not trust her and she could not believe that her love for Rob was genuine, as she mentioned that she does not understand that if you love someone how could you do such things to them. Kylie said that she thought that her dating the father of her child had something to do with it and mentioned that she thought that Blac was with Rob for other reasons but she hoped for her instinct not to be true because she deeply cared about Rob's happiness.
Kylie testified that she got to know about her brother's engagement from the internet and she was happy for them when they announced their engagement, but she was curious about how it would go and stated that she tried to be cool with Blac and spend time with her and her son which she shares with Tyga.
Jeff Olde was another witness on the stand on Monday who is a former executive vice president of E! in 2016 and testified in court that he had approved season two of "Rob and Chyna," but further approval from his bosses would still have been needed. He was under the impression that the former couple would walk down the aisle in season two, as he mentioned that he thought the show could have been promising because of a wedding that gave them a hook for season two. Kylie had sent him an email expressing concern towards Rob Kardashian and described Blac Chyna as a toxic women after the December 2016 incident, to which Jeff Olde replied in his testimony that he does not take direction from a 17-year-olds. (Kylie was 19 at the time)
Kylie’s mail was followed by a similar kind of mail from Khloe Kardashian, which also did not affect Jeff, but he testified that the show was only canceled because there was no more of Rob and Chyna on the show and if they were able to work through their differences, he might have thought to renew their show but also clarified that none of the inputs from the Kardashians or Jenners affected the network's decision.
Kylie Jenner will be back on the stand on Tuesday and Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian are yet to take the stand.
