If you were holding out hope Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna would get back together, star in a second season of Rob & Chyna, and live happily ever after, I have some jarring news.

According to People, Rob is now reportedly dating 27-year-old Mehgan James.

Elite Daily reached out to Rob's and Mehgan's teams for comment on the relationship but did not hear back at time of publishing.

A source told People,

Mehgan's been supporting Rob and his business for some time now. They've been really close friends for about three months.

Mehgan and Rob definitely have one thing in common: reality TV.

Mehgan appeared in Oxygen's Bad Girls Club and VH1's Basketball Wives LA. From Houston, Texas, Mehgan was known as "The Texas Temptation" on Bad Girls Club.

Of the new relationship, the source told People,

Mehgan is living for this moment right now.

It's interesting timing for this news to break, seeing as Rob took to Instagram this week to gush about his ex and mother of his child.

In a now-deleted post on Tuesday, the 30-year-old captioned an old photo of Chyna,

On my first episode of Rob's Random Cornball Thoughts is This young lady who grew up to be the woman I love and the mother of my child. She is beautiful and gave me my first child. @blacchyna.

Rob and Chyna had an on-again-off-again relationship for about a year. Many of their relationship troubles played out on their reality show, Rob & Chyna, or in Rob's dramatic social media posts.

They began dating in January 2016 and got engaged in April of that same year. One month later, they announced they were expecting a child together.

Chyna gave birth to Dream Kardashian on November 10, 2016.

Then in December, Rob posted a series of emotional Snapchats, saying Chyna had left him and taken Dream with her.

People reports the relationship officially ended in February 2017, although the duo were spotted together in Snapchats looking quite happy together as recently as April.

All I know is keeping up with the Rob and Chyna saga is about 10 times more difficult than keeping up with Kourtney and Scott's relationship.

Maybe Rob and Mehgan can make things work outside of the spotlight. Although judging by her Bad Girls Club persona, Mehgan is no stranger to drama herself.

Obviously, it's up to momager Kris Jenner, but Rob and Mehgan, might I suggest not immediately starring in a reality show together?
