Rob Kardashian sparks dating rumours after posting a picture of Karrueche Tran

Former reality TV star Rob Kardashian may have become elusive in the past two years, but he’s still been causing waves with his social media posts. On Tuesday, a photo he shared featuring Karrueche Tran has caused an uproar among fans.

Tran is best known as singer Chris Brown’s ex-girlfriend. The pair had a tumultuous on-and-off relationship that was highly publicised. Kardashian sparked dating rumours with the model after he shared a screen grab of their text conversation. In it, she shared a selfie with him.

"I like it when she send me pictures. (sic)," captioned Kardashian. Unfortunately, the photo is no longer on his Instagram page. He deleted it shortly after posting, just like many of his other previous posts.

E! Online was able to take a screenschot of the post before Kardashian deleted it. Fans immediately started to speculate about the nature of Kardashian’s relationship with Tran. A lot of people started to assume that the two are dating. However, Tran, who is saved in Kardashian’s phone as “Karroooooochieeee,” is reportedly not dating Kardashian, according to a source that spoke with E! Online.

According to US Weekly, which also caught the post before it was taken down, Kardashian didn’t like the comments and reactions about the picture. A few hours after he uploaded the photo, he returned to Instagram to change the caption.

"I been Friends with Karoooooch since high school. F--k outta here with your negative s--t, (sic)” he said. Soon after the scathing remark, he decided to delete the entire post altogether.

Kardashian has been making his presence felt again on social media after "disappearing" for the last two years. He has also stopped appearing from "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" due to depression and weight issues. He is believed to be trying to get back in shape and has been slowly becoming more active on social media.
