KoKo is unbothered. Khloé Kardashian’s reaction to French Montana flirting with Kourtney isn’t what we expected from someone whose ex-boyfriend hit on her sister, but, hey, we’ll take it. For those who don’t know, Kourtney took to her Instagram on Friday, May 15, to share a sexy photo of her in a bikini in her backyard.
