Kim Kardashian and her sister Khloe have hit back at claims that they bring bad luck to the men they date.

On Wednesday’s episode of their Hulu TV show, The Kardashians, Kim, 42, and Khloe, 39, denied the viral TikTok theory, dubbed the ‘Kardashian Curse’, slamming it as ‘super sexist.’

The Kardashian curse is a theory that every man who gets romantically involved with one of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters suffers a fall from grace – that the men they leave in their wake will fall subject to scandal and personal turmoil, all of which will be pulled apart by millions of devoted reality fans.

Their younger sister Kylie Jenner, 25, previously explained the theory in an older episode of the show, saying: ‘The Kardashian curse is every male figure that comes and dates a Kardashian. Their life kind of just goes downhill after that.’

As Kim and Khloe denounce the internet theory, we take a look at some of their most famous relationships and their outcomes.

The latest debate about the Kardashian curse started when Kourtney Kardashian’s former boyfriend Scott Disick, 40, brought up the wild online rumor, telling the ladies, ‘The Kardashians are actually witches and every man that comes in contact with them is cursed. But isn’t that just the Kardashian curse?’

Khloe expanded on the rumor, saying, ‘It says that, many moons ago, a woman in our family made a deal with four witches. It was wild.’

She plays a video on her phone that alleges the woman in their family sold her soul to four witches in Armenia, ‘In order for all the women in her bloodline to always have fame.’

‘This is wild,’ Scott says, as Kim jokes, ‘Oh guys, should I never date?’ Khloe then explains why the theory is, ‘super sexist.’

‘Why can society blame us girls but they would never blame men? So you’re telling me that I made someone a drug addict? I made someone cheat?’

Kim adds, ‘I just wish some of the guys would come to our defense,’ as Scott insists, ‘I would, I’m the one that made mistakes.’

Kim then mentions Khloe’s ex Lamar Odom, as Khloe says, ‘Lamar has always come to our defense.’

Kim agreed, replying, ‘I have a few thank-you’s I’d like to say. Thank you, Lamar. Thank you for always coming to our defense. Thank you for just keeping it real.’

In a bombshell interview with DailyMail.com in May, Ray J claimed the infamous sex tape was ‘released like an album’ by Kim herself – who also kept the only copy of it stashed in a Nike shobox under her bed along with other steamy tapes she made with him.

He also insisted he never did any of the things she claims he did in the Kardashians’ new Hulu show and was outraged by her suggestion he might have a video showing him ‘sticking a dildo in my a**’ – which he says made him sound ‘like a rapist’ and was untrue.

Ray J – real name Ray Norwood – told DailyMail.com: ‘I’ve sat in the shadows for over 14 years allowing the Kardashians to use my name, to abuse my name, make billions of dollars over a decade-and-a-half talking about a topic I’ve never really spoken about.’

‘I’ve never leaked anything. I have never leaked a sex tape in my life. It has never been a leak. It’s always been a deal and a partnership between Kris Jenner and Kim and me and we’ve always been partners since the beginning of this thing.’
