What happened with Younes Bendjima and Scott Disick?

On Aug. 30, Bendjima took to Instagram Stories to share a DM that Disick allegedly sent him. According to the screenshot Bendjima took, Disick sent him a paparazzi photo of Kardashian and her current boyfriend, Travis Barker, engaging in PDA during their trip to Italy.

“Yo is this chick ok!????” Disick allegedly wrote. “Broooo like what is this. In the middle of Italy.”

In response, Bendjima said, “Doesn’t matter to me as long as she’s happy. PS: I ain’t your bro.”

Afterward, Bendjima also wrote in another Instagram Story post, “Couldn’t miss this one. He been playing around for too long, tired to stay quiet and be the nice guy. Back to work now.”

Some fans disagree with how Younes Bendjima handled the situation

While some people commended Bendjima for taking the high road and not talking negatively about Kardashian, some fans wonder if he really needed to post the DM publicly.

“If he really cared and had her back, he would’ve messaged her privately or found a way to reach out and let her know so that she could deal with her family drama in her own way,” one person wrote on Reddit. “Instead, he posted it publicly for the whole world to see. I don’t think Kourtney should be embarrassed, but if I were her and I found out along with the rest of the world that the father of my children was talking shit about me like that, I would be humiliated.”

Another user agreed, saying, “You’re so right, he just wanted to make himself look good by posting it.”

Some fans also brought up the possibility that putting Disick on blast could affect his and Kardashian’s kids, especially the older ones.

However, there are fans who sympathize with Bendjima, especially because Disick has talked negatively about him in the past.
