   Kourtney Kardashian moves to get sole custody of her children with Scott Disick, after bitter split

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick were together for 9 years but did not marry. They do have 3 children together, though, the youngest of whom is 7 months old, and Kourtney has already met with a divorce attorney to make sure she gets sole custody of them.

Considering that Scott is reportedly off the wagon again and hasn’t seen his family in over a month, it seems that Kourtney is right in wanting to protect the children from Scott’s negative influence, at least until he gets help for his addictions.

Kourtney wants sole custody, Scott won’t challenge her

A couple of days ago, Kourtney met with top Hollywood divorce attorney Laura Wasser again, to discuss her options in what she believes will be a short custody battle. They first met on the July 4 weekend, when she was yet to break up with Scott but he’d already been away from home for weeks and showing no signs of thinking of coming back.

According to Us Weekly, Kourtney wants sole custody and to limit the kids’ time with their dad, in order to “protect [them] from Disick’s downward spiral, fueled by booze, drugs, and other vices.”

It sounds like she’s gearing up for a fight, but chances are she will not meet any resistance from Scott. His friends say for the publication that he has no plans of challenging her in court. “[He] doesn’t act like a dad at all when he’s partying,” an insider adds.

Kourtney is probably hoping that Scott will get sober and clean by going to rehab, after which she will be open to re-negotiate whatever custodial agreement they reach now.

A real breakup or a TV stunt?

So far, neither Kourtney nor Scott has been available for comment on the alleged breakup, which came after he was spotted getting very cozy with an ex-girlfriend on vacation. For a family like the Kardashians, who claim they have no secrets from the fans, that’s strange, to say the least.

“Insiders” vouch that the breakup is real and that Kourtney has finally understood that Scott had no plans to change for her or the kids, no matter how much she asked or threatened him to. So, this time, she’s putting her foot down and not looking back: she won’t even hear talk of reconciliation.

Then again, this is the Kardashians we’re talking about. Reports of this type have been out in the press and the blogosphere before, and they always turned out to be false, in the sense that Kourtney and Scott were still together, still professing their love for one another in front of the camera.

If we were to take a guess, chances are 50-50 that the breakup is real and that it’s scripted for TV drama, which we’ll surely see in detail on the family’s reality show.
