Khloe Kardashian says Kylie Jenner, Travis Scott are still dating after leaked article says otherwise
The article was originally scrapped in the wake of the Astroworld Festival tragedy
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Khloe Kardashian responded to rumors that her sister Kylie Jenner is not actually dating Travis Scott.
The reality star felt compelled to comment on a leaked article from W Magazine, which was reportedly planning a large story on Scott and Jenner’s relationship that was ultimately scrapped in the wake of the Astroworld Festival tragedy. The "Sicko Mode" rapper was performing at the Houston show that he founded when a crowd surge led to multiple injuries and left ten people dead.
The leaked article alleges that Jenner, 24, and Scott, 30, have not been an actual couple for two years and are merely very comfortable with each other. However, Kardashian, 37, issued a comment on a video summing up the article to note that it’s not the case.

Sources close to the couple backed up Kardashian's claims to TMZ, telling the outlet that not only still romantically involved, but are completely exclusive as well.

Page Six previously reported that the editors of W were forced to scrap their coverage of the famous couple in the wake of the Astroworld tragedy. The outlet noted at the time that some print issues of the article had been sent out, but the magazine reportedly quickly took steps to recall them. However, TMZ noted that it looks like some made their way out.
