Blac Chyna slams Kylie for taking daughter Dream in helicopter that killed Kobe Bryant: 'I never gave permission'
Blac Chyna revealed how she was "distraught" to learn that her daughter Dream Kardashian once flew on the same helicopter that crashed in Calabasas, California, claiming the lives of NBA legend Kobe Bryant and eight others on board.
The 31-year-old explained in an impassioned statement via her lawyer that she was told of her daughter's November birthday flight only after it happened. At the time, she immediately complained to her ex Rob Kardashian.
Chyna expressed her anger after Kylie revealed to her that Dream had flown on the doomed chopper, bemoaning she was not consulted before her daughter joined Kylie and Rob on the flight. "Chyna has become aware that Kylie Jenner is using the tragic deaths of Kobe Bryant, his beautiful daughter, and seven other precious souls to profess her 'distress' that she and Dream had ridden on the same helicopter with the same pilot prior to Sunday's horrific crash," Chyna's lawyer Lynne Ciana said in a statement.
"No parents should find out after the fact that their child has participated in a dangerous activity without their permission," the statement continued. "Chyna was distraught to learn that Kylie had taken Dream on that helicopter ride in November 2019. Chyna voiced her strong objections to Rob [Kardashian] and insisted that it never happen again."
While Kylie mourned the tragic deaths by sharing pictures of the nine passengers on board, she failed to mention her niece in the statement.
"Rest in peace .. and prayers to these families," the 22-year-old fashion mogul wrote in the caption. "I still can't believe this. that was the helicopter i would fly on from time to time with that pilot, Ara. he was such a nice man."
"[H]old your loves ones close [heart emoticon]," she added.
Kylie had shared pictures of Dream's lavish birthday treat back in November. The three-year-old was seen posing outside the aircraft at the time. "Took dream on her first helicopter ride… happy birthday baby girl.. you are a gift," Kylie wrote on Instagram.
Meanwhile, Rob, who shares joint custody of Dream with Chyna, shared pictures of his daughter sitting in a white leather seat inside the helicopter while feasting on pink birthday cakes.
