Ellen grilled Kendall Jenner about dating Ben Simmons

Share

Philadelphia fans have seen Kendall Jenner sitting courtside at Sixers games for some time now. Heck, we've even seen her with Ben Simmons at a Drexel basketball game or ice skating at Dilworth Park in front of City Hall.

The dynamic duo are clearly an item but we haven't actually heard them speak about their relationship. Until now.

And that's thanks to the fantastic Ellen Degeneres who had Kendall on as a guest on her show and asked about her basketball-playing beau.

Ellen put a picture of Jenner up on the big screen with Simmons standing in front of her.

"Who is that guy in the way," Ellen asks.

"I'm not so sure," Jenner responds with a smirk.

"Obviously you're dating this guy on the 76ers," Ellen says. "How long have you been dating him?"

"For a bit now," Jenner says.

And that's about it. Ellen goes on to play a prank on Kendall which worked fairly well.

While some fans complain about the fabled "Kardashian Curse," Sixers part owner Michael Rubin put a rest to that when asked by TMZ earlier this week:
