Before she was the A-list celebrity we know today, Kardashian reportedly dated Taryll Jackson, the son of Tito Jackson (aka Michael Jackson's brother and fellow member of The Jackson 5). In a 2016 interview with VladTV, Tito discussed his son's romance with Kardashian, saying, "Taryll dated Kourtney as little as maybe seven, eight years ago." He also noted that the pair were allegedly together for a few years and, despite their breakup, their families still keep in touch and remain close.
Though little is known about Kardashian's relationship with Jackson, she did claim his music group, 3T, wrote their 2004 song "Stubborn (It's a Shame)" with her in mind. In an Instagram Story from 2018, she shared a screenshot of the song with the caption, "Fun fact: This song was written about me. I'm serious."
