  • Kendall Jenner had a rule against speaking about her personal life on E!'s "KUWTK."
  • She would only bring someone on the show if she was with them for more than a year, a producer said.
  • "She doesn't always know what people's intentions are," the producer said on "The Daily Dish."

Kendall Jenner's love life was not featured on a single season of E!'s "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" throughout the reality show's 14-year run.

According to Farnaz Farjam, the show's executive producer, the 25-year-old supermodel adhered to a self-imposed rule against discussing personal matters on the small screen until she fully trusted her partner.

"Kendall's always had this rule, which she felt like she had to be with someone for at least a year before she lets them be a part of the show and in the show," Farnaz said on Monday's episode of Bravo TV's "The Daily Dish."

She continued, "She doesn't always know what people's intentions are. So that's why we kind of kept her personal life out of it, just because she had a rule."

Kendall's sisters and costars - Kim Kardashian West, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner - each took turns serving their relationship and friendship-related drama on a platter for the masses. Even her mom, Kris Jenner, opened up about her divorce from Caitlyn Jenner and finding a new love on the series.

But as the show ventured into its later seasons, Kendall and Kylie's romantic relationships took more of a backseat.

"They were at an age ... like, if you think about when you're a young adult coming into your adulthood, I think you sometimes care a lot more what the outside world has to say about you," Farjam said.

"Kylie did share her relationship with Tyga," Farjam said of two who broke up in 2017. "We showed their relationship quite a bit on 'Keeping Up,' and then Travis [Scott] didn't really want to participate."

The reality star and Scott dated for two years before splitting in 2019. According to TMZ, the two have rekindled their relationship as of earlier this year, but are choosing to keep it open. The two share a daughter, 3-year-old Stormi Webster.

The model has previously been linked to Grammy-winning musician Harry Styles, Philadelphia 76ers player Ben Simmons, and Brooklyn Nets player Blake Griffin - none of whom Kendall brought on "KUWTK."

She did, however, provide a rare glimpse into her personal life while wishing her boyfriend, NBA player Devin Booker, a happy one-year anniversary on Instagram. The model posted a series of romantic photographs with the 24-year-old Phoenix Suns player.

Booker has not appeared on "KUWTK," which wrapped its 20th and final season on Thursday.

Though the family's namesake show has come to an end, they aren't exactly retreating from the limelight.

Months after the family announced they were saying goodbye to "KUWTK," news broke that the Kardashian-Jenners had signed a multi-year deal with Disney to create "new global content" that will stream on Hulu.

"This is the next chapter. In the new show, you'll see us evolving as a family, fans want us to be who we are and since moment one, they've been emotionally invested in our show just like we are," matriarch Kris Jenner said on a call with Disney Upfronts, according to Deadline.

The show is expected to air later in 2021, but a release date has not been confirmed.
