When fame opens every door, sometimes it also attracts the people you’d most like to keep out. Kris Jenner and her entire family are now turning to the courts for protection against Kyle Robert DeWick, a Colorado man the family describes as a stalker with a years-long fixation on them — particularly Kylie Jenner.
According to court documents, DeWick first landed on the family’s radar back in 2021 after making repeated visits to Kylie’s residence. The situation escalated from there. Kris claims he became convinced that she’d somehow encouraged him to pursue Kylie and even propose to her — a belief she flatly denies. That delusion apparently fueled enough anger that DeWick filed a federal action against Kris in 2024, accusing the family of surveilling him and seeking what he described as“access”to them.
Now, five years into this pattern, the situation has intensified again. According to Kris’s sworn declaration, security personnel recently informed her that DeWick has resurfaced by contacting real estate agents tied to family properties, touring homes near where family members live, and even attempting to speak with neighbors after gaining access to a gated community. Kris also says she’s been informed DeWick has a violent criminal history, including convictions for violent assault — details that add a genuinely unsettling layer to what might otherwise sound like celebrity inconvenience.
The family is asking the court to order DeWick to stay at least 100 yards away from Kris, Kylie, Kendall, Kim, Khloé, Kourtney, and Rob — essentially everyone in the inner circle. Kris describes the situation as having caused severe emotional distress and left her terrified for her own safety and that of her children.
It’s a stark reminder that celebrity comes with real vulnerabilities. No amount of wealth or security detail can completely eliminate the risk posed by someone truly determined to cross boundaries. The Kardashian family’s legal action may seem like just another headline, but behind it is a family dealing with a legitimate safety threat — the kind of situation that most people never have to face, but that increasingly defines what it means to live under intense public scrutiny.
