A sensational claim has emerged that Kris Jenner might be using her 70th birthday party as a decoy for a surprise wedding to Corey Gamble.
Over the course of their 11-year romance, Corey, 44, has remained a stalwart but understated presence at the side of the reality TV matriarch.
Four years into their relationship, Kris said she was unlikely to marry again ‘based on my past,’ meaning her divorces from her first two husbands, O.J. Simpson lawyer Robert Kardashian and former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner, who was then called Bruce.
Now, however, an insider has made the wild supposition that Kris may have changed her mind, alleging that she and Corey will tie the knot within days.
Sources say Kris is holding her birthday party this weekend at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’ $165 million Beverly Hills mansion, via TMZ.
One of the insiders made an unconfirmed assertion that once the guests arrive, Kris and Corey intend to reveal that the fete is also a wedding.
The Daily Mail has contacted a representative for Kris for comment.

The source who leveled the wedding claim added that nobody outside of Kris and Corey’s inner circle is aware of the supposed true nature of the party.
Insiders maintained that reality TV cameras will not be present at the venue, where 300 invited guests are expected to attend and a music star will purportedly perform.
Jeff and Lauren had Corey and Kris at their wedding in Venice this June along with four of her daughters – Kim and Khloe Kardashian and Kylie and Kendall Jenner.
Kris and Corey were beset by a swarm of breakup rumors over the summer, but shot down the conjecture by appearing together at a gala in Bel-Air in September.
They first met in 2014 at a birthday party for fashion designer Riccardo Tisci, who was famously close friends with Kim’s then-new husband Kanye West.
At the time, Kris was separated but not yet divorced from Bruce Jenner, who came out as the newly-transitioned Caitlyn Jenner on a Vanity Fair cover the following year.
Corey meanwhile was in the employ of Justin Bieber’s then-manager Scooter Braun, and was working as the Baby singer’s tour manager.
In the months following their initial encounter, Kris and Corey were glimpsed on multiple dates together, and they finally went Instagram official in 2015.

Kris remarked in 2018 that she was unlikely to ever exchange vows with Corey, during a podcast interview with top Hollywood divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who went on to represent Kim when her own marriage to Kanye collapsed in 2021.
‘You know, you never say never, but I often say it’s just not what I think I need to do again based on my past,’ Kris said on Laura’s show Divorce Sucks!.
‘I’m in a really great relationship right now and I’m happy and I don’t want to mess that up,’ she said, before acknowledging: ‘I used to listen to people say that, by the way, and think: “Oh, what a crock of you-know-what.”‘
By 2018 she felt that she no longer harbored ‘the need to put on a long, white dress and walk down an aisle. I’ve done that. I’ve had the big wedding.’
She raved about her sex life with Corey on Keeping up with the Kardashians, telling her friend Faye Resnick she was ‘always in the mood’ with him.
‘Corey is like a walking, talking Luther Vandross song. He is so sexy always and all I want to do is like, cue the music,’ Kris effervesced on a 2020 episode of the show.
But as recently as two years ago, insiders exclusively informed the Daily Mail that Kris was unwilling to marry Corey for fear of how a potential divorce would unfold.
‘Kris is not engaged to Corey, and she has no plans to be. She really has no need to marry him because she has exactly what she wants with him right now,’ said one.

‘Kris does not want to put anything on paper regarding their relationship because she knows that, if their relationship does end, God forbid, it would not end well if they were married,’ another insider explained.
The momager married her first husband Robert Kardashian in 1978, when she was a 22-year-old American Airlines flight attendant and he was a 36-year-old lawyer.
One of the groomsmen was O.J. Simpson, who later had Robert on his legal team at the trial where he was controversially acquitted of double-murder.
After marrying Robert, Kris quickly gave him four children – Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Robert – and enjoyed an extravagant lifestyle as a Beverly Hills hostess.
However the marriage imploded after Kris embarked on an affair with hunky soccer player Todd Waterman, who has since become an animator.
Todd told the MailOnline the romance was ‘crazy and passionate’ with sexual liaisons ‘Outdoors and indoors,’ while Kris in her memoirs gave him the pseudonym Ryan and dished that they had ‘Wild crazy sex all the time.’
He was nearly a decade younger than Kris whom he described as ‘generous’ with him financially. ‘She was paying a lot, or it was Robert I guess.’
Both Kris and Todd recalled that Robert hired private detectives to smoke out their affair, and Todd alleged he got a call from O.J. warning him off Kris.

According to Todd, he was driving a Jeep with Kris in the passenger’s seat when Robert confronted them and swung a golf club at the car.
He claimed Kris was terrified Robert had a gun so they set off on ‘this little high speed chase going on at rush hour,’ in Todd’s words.
Robert eventually filed for a divorce that was finalized in March 1991 – a month before Kris married the ex-Olympian then known as Bruce Jenner.
Bruce and Kris had two daughters, Kylie and Kendall, and she managed his post-athletic career in a precursor to her now world-famous role as ‘momager.’
They ultimately separated in 2013 and finalized their divorce in 2015 amid a swirl of speculation that Bruce might be on the verge of a gender transition, which was finally confirmed when Caitlyn Jenner debuted on the cover of Vanity Fair in 2015.
Although they initially managed an amicable split, completing the legal process just months before the Vanity Fair cover, Kris and Caitlyn soon hit choppier waters.
Caitlyn fell out with Kris and her three Kardashian daughters upon publishing her 2017 memoir The Secrets Of My Life, which contained an unflattering portrayal of Kris.
However the family have since been able to mend fences, and Kim and Kourtney were among the guests at Caitlyn’s own 70th birthday dinner in 2019.

Kris and Caitlyn offered divergent explanations for the collapse of their marriage in the Vanity Fair issue in which the latter came out as trans.
Caitlyn said she was ‘the breadwinner’ for the first 15 years of the marriage, but when the family became reality stars their ‘relationship was different’ because Kris was ‘running this whole show and getting credit for it and she had her own money,’ with the result that she ‘didn’t need me as much from that standpoint.’
According to Caitlyn: ‘I think in a lot of ways she became less tolerant of me. Then I’d get upset and the whole relationship kind of fizzled.’
She accused Kris of often being ‘not very nice,’ adding: ‘People would see how I got mistreated. She controlled the money…all that kind of stuff.’
Kris however attributed the divorce to Caitlyn’s gender issues, explaining that her ex ‘wasn’t who he wanted to be so he was miserable.’
She described Caitlyn as being ‘p**ed off’ and having ‘social anxiety,’ saying: ‘We fought a lot because we would go out together and before we got to the end of the block we were in a fight because he started saying: “When can we go home?”‘
Caitlyn however was dismissive of Kris’ version of events, insisting: ‘Twenty percent was gender and 80 percent was the way I was treated.’
