The reality TV star Kourtney Kardashian has sent a shock through the social media due to the news of the paternity of her child Reign, hinting that it was Justin Bieber, pop mamager. Unprepared fans have erupted into a controversy and the blame and speculation being pointed; with many simply unable to believe that this could have really happened and they are outraged about the latest development in the Kardashian family saga.
In the latest headline-making interview, Kardashian shed a vague light on Reign knowing who his true biological father is, and people assume it could be Bieber. It has set the record straight after Kardashian had been spotted with Bieber on different occasions previously and they were friends for years.
The news has fetched a series of reactions from fans. Most of them are expressing their surprise and dismay on social media. It is quite mind-boggling for any fan being aware of a shocking disclosure. Some, however, have concerns over the veracity of Kardashian's assertion. They have argued that timing and motive of her disclosure is questionable, while some showed sympathy or empathy for her.
For Kardashian and Bieber, the debate on whether Reign's father was Kardashian, Bieber, or a mix of both added more water to fire the media storms and tales that followed them since their emergence as pop culture icons. It has been impossible for the newspapers to make the relationship clear as both stars have kept being secretive which has triggered different speculations among the fans of the two artists.
This has also cast out doubt on the nature of celebrity gossip and tabloid talks and the degree at which they damage those who belong in that circle or those who are not the direct targets, for instance, the innocent children like Reign. The media frenzy that surrounds celebrity paternity rumors has been shamed and by critics as both invasive and harmful to those caught in between.
With the ongoing controversy, in the flash for instance, everybody will watch how she is conducting herself after the incredible disclosure. Whether the truth behind Reign's paternity will ever be revealed remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the Kardashian family saga, as the newest chapter, continues to dominate the headlines of media out.
