Shortly after the Arthur George sock designer posted the denial, James took to her own Twitter account, where she retweeted his tweet.
Despite his claim that he isn’t seeing her, an insider close to James told PEOPLE on Wednesday that “Mehgan’s been supporting Rob and his business for some time now,” and “They’ve been really close friends for about three months.”
A second source also told PEOPLE that Kardashian’s family is aware of the new romance, and they’re “not thrilled” about it.
“They hope it’s short-lived, because she seems like drama as well,” said the second source. “Now that Rob finally got away from the Chyna drama, they don’t want him to to start another destructive relationship.”
A rep for James would not confirm or deny if she is dating Kardashian.
