Fans of The Kardashians will no doubt know all about the recent totally unsubstantiated claims circling about on social media at the moment that put forward the theory that the 'real' father of Kourtney Kardashian's son, Reign, is none other than Justin Bieber.
Earlier this week, Reign himself - who is the youngest of Kourtney and her ex-partner Scott Disick's three children - came forward to address the bizarre rumour on social media.
On Monday (31 March), Reign sat with Alabama Barker - the daughter of Kourtney's new hubby Travis who he shares with his ex Shanna Moakler - and her boyfriend, Scooter Jackson, where he insisted he has no relation to Justin.

"Bro, I swear," he allegedly began during the live video, as per E! News. "Justin Bieber’s not my dad."
Reign went on to explain: "I think Justin Bieber was 16 when I got born", though it's worth noting the chart-topper was actually 20.
"Yeah, I don’t think my mom would do that," the 10-year-old added.

Following the pre-teen's comments denying the unfounded rumour, mum-of-four Kourtney has come forward to confirm that the recent conspiracy is totally 'ridiculous'.
A source told US Weekly: "Kourtney doesn’t give any heed to the reports that Justin is Reign’s father.
"She thinks it’s ridiculous and laughs that people online would even believe that."

Meanwhile, another source added to the Daily Mail: "Kourtney has never talked to Reign about the rumours and she would imagine this was the first time he had ever heard them.
"Kourtney was livid. She told him that there are so many silly rumours about the family and that he is not to believe anything.
"She tries to keep her kids away from this stuff but as they get older she is unable to as easily."
She previously had to come forward to address rumours about her other son, Mason Disick, after it was alleged that he had become a father.

"I rarely address rumours or conspiracies regarding myself or my family," the reality TV star wrote on her Instagram Story.
"But this is about my child and it feels wrong to let anyone think for a second that these lies are remotely true."
Kourtney continued: "They are not. Mason does not have a child. These accounts that pretend to be him are definitely not.

"They are FAKE."
She added: "My son really values his privacy, and I am asking all media to please be respectful: he is a kid with feelings and a beautiful life ahead of him. Please stop spreading false narratives and spinning lies."
The POOSH founder also reportedly called for an end to videos about her kids, stressing that they are minors.
"To everyone else making videos about my children (who, by the way, are underage), please stop and leave them in peace," she urged.
