With its 14-year run, E!'s "Keeping Up With the Kardashians [1]" cemented the Kardashian-Jenner family as celebrity royalty. After the series ended in 2021 with its 20th season, the family continued their reality TV legacy on Hulu [2] with "The Kardashians [3]." Now, the show is coming back for season two on Thursday.
The show's season one finale aired on June 16 with surprising revelations about Tristan Thompson's paternity scandal [4]. Now, loyal viewers are eager to see what other drama will unfold from the famous family this fall. Per season two's four teasers and official trailer, "The Kardashians" will dive into every buzzy story we've heard about the family over the past few months, from Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's wedding [5] and Kylie Jenner's second pregnancy [6] to Kim Kardashian's once-budding relationship with Pete Davidson [7]. The siblings' ever-evolving career developments will be explored as well, with some appearances from momager Kris Jenner's many grandchildren sprinkled throughout.
While the first trailer for the new season featured an appearance from Kim's ex-boyfriend Davidson, he's notably absent from the second trailer, released on Aug. 9, the third, which arrived on Aug. 15 (despite it using many of the same clips from the initial teaser), and the official trailer, released on Aug. 29. While the omission may be meaningless, it comes suspiciously close to the pair's reported split after nine months together [8] on Aug. 5. Meanwhile, the latest teaser — released on Sept. 21 — shows Khloé Kardashian tearfully opening up about having a second child [9] with Thompson.
"The Kardashians" hit Hulu in April and was the most-watched series premiere on the platform, according to Variety [10]. The show picks up right where "KUWTK" left off, following the Kardashian/Jenner clan through new beginnings, heartbreak, and, of course, juicy drama.
So much already happened in season one: Kim makes her "Saturday Night Live" [11] debut and deals with potential new footage from her 2007 sex tape with ex-boyfriend Ray J [12] being released to the public. She also passes her "baby bar" exam [13], and introduces her new (now former) beau to viewers. Kravis make serious moves in their relationship and try to have a baby together [14]. Khloé [15] works on her relationship with Thompson until it's revealed that he's betrayed her once again. Kendall Jenner [16] and Kylie [17] don't appear as much in the show — filming took place during Kylie's second pregnancy, while Kendall travels a lot for work. Meanwhile, Kris [18] is thriving and moves into a house right next to Khloé.
As we gear up for the show's return, read ahead for everything we know so far about season two of "The Kardashians."
"The Kardashians" Season 2 Plot
The first season of "The Kardashians" is jam-packed, and the second season will undoubtedly continue the momentum. Judging by the season finale and all the news that has swirled in the media since the season concluded, viewers can expect to see a lot more Kravis, especially their multiple weddings in Las Vegas and Italy [20], and the unraveling of Khloé's relationship with Thompson [21]. The second season will also highlight the birth of Kylie's son [22] in February 2022 and Kim's iconic Met Gala ensemble [23] from this past May, per the new trailer, and will also potentially touch on the Davidson/Kanye West/Kim K drama [24].
"The Kardashians" Season 2 Cast
"The Kardashians" wouldn't be complete without the entire Kardashian/Jenner gang present in some capacity.

Viewers can also expect to see Scott Disick [25], Kris's BF Cory Gamble, of course, Travis Barker, and even Davidson.
