Rob Kardashian returned to the spotlight for a rare public appearance at his sister Kim Kardashian’s 46th birthday party.
The former reality TV star was photographed Tuesday joining her famous family at Baldi, a steakhouse at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills, to mark the occasion.
Rob, 39, kept it casual for the party, sporting a black bomber jacket over a black collared shirt, teamed with matching black pants, black sneakers and a black baseball cap as he hung out outside the restaurant ahead of the festivities.
He was pictured chatting to birthday girl and sisters Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian, standing out among the trio as they dressed up for the celebration.
Khloe, 42, wore a nude pink bodycon dress with matching stilettos, while Kourtney, 47, opted for a long-sleeved dark purple mini dress and black high heels.
Meanwhile, Kim looked stunning in a shimmering olive green mini dress featuring a plunging V-neckline, which she accessorized with a bejeweled headband.
Later, Rob ditched his jacket and button-down shirt for a simple black Nike T-shirt accessorized with a diamond chain as he left the party alongside Khloé, Kim and mom Kris Jenner.
Kim appeared to have changed to a dark red version of her previous look, while Kris, 70, opted for a pale yellow coat adorned with flowers and feathers.
Rob, who starred in the first eight seasons of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” before opting for a more limited role, has largely kept a low profile since 2016.
The family’s original reality show aired for 20 seasons between 2007 and 2021.
He previously discussed his decision to go under the radar during a July 2025 appearance on Khloé’s podcast, “Khloé in Wonder Land,” revealing, “It has everything to do with myself.” »
“I don’t want to film and put myself in a position where I’m not comfortable,” Rob told his sister when she asked why he chose not to appear on “The Kardashians” alongside the rest of his family.
“I don’t feel good about myself, so why would I want to be on camera and just be vulnerable and let people in when that’s not what I want to do?” he added.
Still, Rob made an appearance on Season 7 of his family’s Hulu series, which premiered in 2022 and is currently airing its eighth season, with Kim teasing in the trailer that “some familiar faces are returning.”
He’s also appeared in photos of other family gatherings over the years, most recently appearing in snaps Khloé shared from her 42nd birthday party in July.
Rob was all smiles as he posed alongside Khloé, Kourtney, Kim and Kris, as well as his 9-year-old daughter, Dream, whom he shares with ex Blac Chyna.
