Is it just an act? After news broke that Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott are on a “break,” fans think that it’s all a publicity stunt to promote the rapper’s new music. One person wrote, “My thoughts on Kylie and Travis — his [new single] drops on Friday. Come on, Kris Jenner works in mysterious ways,” while another echoed, “Kylie and Travis split up right before his new single Friday?” A third person chimed in, writing, “Is this Kylie/Travis breakup promo for ‘Highest in the Room?’”

Additionally, people think Kris, 63, wants to use this as an upcoming plotline during season 17 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians since the Tristan Thompson, Jordyn Woods and Khloé Kardashian cheating scandal is over. “Not y’all falling for this Kylie Travis KUWTK storyline,” one user stated. A second person said, “Kris writing the ‘Kylie + Travis’ treatment for the next season of #KUWTK,” and a third follower wrote, “Kris Jenner said that the Jordyn Woods situation was dying down, and they needed more content for KUWTK, so she told Kylie to break up with Travis Scott.”

However, it seems like the Kardashian clan is hoping that the 22-year-old gets back together with her man soon. “Everyone is hoping that it’s just temporary,” a source exclusively told In Touch. “I do know that Travis doesn’t always want to be in that whirlwind public spotlight of the Kardashian and Jenner drama so maybe something happened.”

The 28-year-old — who shares 20-month-old daughter, Stormi, with the reality TV starlet — was noticeably missing from Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin’s nuptials on September 30 while Kylie made a solo appearance. “Travis not attending Justin and Hailey’s wedding with Kylie did raise some eyebrows,” the insider added. “Kylie definitely wasn’t happy about that. Travis is very mellow, he isolates sometimes, maybe it was all just getting to him, and he decided not to go.”

So, what exactly caused this abrupt split? “No one knows exactly what happened yet,” the source explained. “I know that Kris loves Travis, and she would have told Kylie not to do anything drastic. But if you piss Kylie off enough, she’ll say and do things to get back at you, and Travis isn’t one to stand around and take it.”

Luckily, it seems like Travis wants to be with his daughter at the end of the day. “They love Stormi, so don’t expect Travis to be gone for long,” the source said. “He cherishes that little girl, nothing can keep him away from her.”

Travis and Kylie were first spotted making out at Coachella in April 2017, and less than a year later, the E! personality welcomed her first child in February 2018.
