It comes after it was reported Nicole doesn’t give her blessings to her sister, Sofia’s high-profile romance with Kardashian-ex Scott Disick.

Talking to HollywoodLife.com, a source close to Nicole said she has ‘pleaded,’ with her younger sister to end the romance.   

‘Nicole worries that Scott and his bad-boy ways, are a bad influence on her much younger little sister,’ the source was quoted as saying.  

‘Nicole thinks Scott is way too old for Sofia and Nicole freaked out when she learned that Sofia has been hanging out with Scott’s kids too.’

The source then added: ‘Nicole never thought Sofia and Scott would last very long.’
