Kourtney and Addison’s friendship goes back to January, when Kourtney enlisted YouTuber David Dobrik to help launch her son Mason’s TikTok account.
In March, Dobrik introduced the two when he got Rae involved in Mason’s TikTok.
“I met Kourtney through a friend, through David,” Rae told The Tom Ward Show in June. “We surprised Mason, because Mason liked my videos on TikTok.”
She added that “I kind of just stuck around and we got really close”.
