Blac Chyna is “very pleased” her revenge porn trial against Rob Kardashian will move forward.
Following a judge’s decision not to enforce the settlement that the reclusive former reality star wanted, Chyna’s attorney said the model is looking forward to her day in court once again.
“Chyna is very pleased that the trial judge denied Rob’s motion to ‘enforce’ a settlement that never existed,” Lynne Ciani told Page Six exclusively, adding that Chyna will “prove her case … that Rob posted devastating revenge porn of her” when the trial begins. Jury selection starts Monday, June 20.
“Revenge porn is a very dangerous form of violence predominantly perpetrated against girls and women,” Ciani added. “Victims of revenge porn typically experience serious anxiety, shame and helplessness. Some revenge porn victims have committed suicide.”
Ciani also called out the Grandeza Hot Sauce founder, claiming he has “never taken responsibility for his heinous and vengeful act” of posting nude photos and videos of Chyna on social media in July 2017.
“He was never criminally prosecuted,” she concluded. “It is finally time for Rob to be held accountable in a court of law.”
The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum shared the series of graphic posts as part of the exes’ dramatic falling out following the end of their engagement.
One video Kardashian, 35, shared appeared to show Chyna, 34, in bed with another man, to which he commented, “Hahahaha Chyna just sent me this video saying happy 4th of July what a crazy person. Come spend time with your daughter instead of f–king me and then this dude right after. U need help.”
Chyna obtained a restraining order against her ex-fiancé just days later. Robert Shapiro, the attorney who represented Kardashian at the time, issued a mea culpa on behalf of his client.
“I personally on Robert Kardashian’s behalf apologized and offered our regrets for what has taken place in the past couple of days, and now we move forward to do one thing and one thing only: whatever’s in the best interest of this child,” Shapiro said, referring to Chyna and Kardashian’s now-5-year-old daughter, Dream.
The former couple just wrapped up a separate legal battle in which Chyna had sued Kardashian and his family for defamation. A jury ruled that the Kardashian-Jenners did not defame Chyna, so they awarded her no damages. The jury did, however, find that Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Kylie Jenner acted to protect their own economic interest.
