'He's going through a hard time:' Khloe Kardashian says her gated home is ideal for reclusive brother Rob and it gives him 'freedom' from their 'crazy lifestyle'
Khloé Kardashian loves sharing her home with her reclusive little brother Rob.
The 31-year-old reality star offered more details on her relationship with Rob, 28, in an uncut interview from her Complex magazine photoshoot released on Wednesday.
'Rob lives with me now and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love having him with me,' Khloé told the magazine.

She explained that Rob lived with her and ex-husband Lamar Odom through most of their marriage.
After the couple split, Khloé moved into Rob's townhouse before both moved into her new, larger house.
'I have a big ass house and I wanted it so he could feel, like, comfortable. He's going through a hard time now, and it's behind gates. With this crazy lifestyle you have to think of places where you can still have your freedom,' Khloé said.

Khloé said she goes 'crazy' when Rob threatens to move out, but she understands how it doesn't sound good to say he lives with his sister.
She's asked him to put his housing situation in perspective since his friends live at home with their parents because they have no other options, while she joked that she's forcing him to live with her.
Khloé said her maternal instincts also play a role.

'I never bother him. I just bought him a rug for his bedroom and he was so cute. He'll text me and tell me how much he likes it and he notices things. So, I like it. I call him my son as a joke,' she said.
She said her famous sisters Kim and Kourtney sometimes 'hate' how she tends to him.
'I do baby him, but I'm a maternal person,' she said.
