The Kardashian family never seemed to be a fan of Robert Kardashian’s wife, Ellen Pierson, especially Khloé Kardashian. In Ian Halperin’s biography, “Kardashian Dynasty,” he revealed one incident Khloé and Pierson had not long after Robert passed away. As he revealed, Khloé remembers asking Ellen if she could take Jocko — her father’s toy monkey — while packing her belongings from her old room after her father’s funeral. Despite not getting approval, Khloé took the monkey and ran. And while this is just a small feud, the tension between the two goes beyond toy monkeys.
In 2013, Pierson sued Khloé and the rest of the Kardashian gang — Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Rob Kardashian — for defamation, according to TMZ. Pierson alleged that “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” sought to hire a private investigator to coax her into divulging harmful information about the Kardashians, aiming to paint her as a conniving blackmailer. Although she didn’t agree, Pierson alleges the family still shared misleading information about her and her relationship with Robert. On the show, they suggested that Pierson married the former lawyer for his money.

As TMZ noted, Pierson went after the matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner clan in the lawsuit, calling Kris a “manipulative and devious mother and ex-wife who simply used and exploited her children.” But if Pierson thought none of the Kardashians would fight back her claims, well, she thought wrong because Khloè fired back.
