American television personality Kris Jenner is eager to see Rob Kardashian date Selena Gomez. The 59-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is hoping to create an angle for her son's return to the reality show's 11th season.

"Selena is just Rob's type. He's totally crushing on her," a source told OK! Magazine. "Rob once called Selena his 'dream girl,' and Kris has been plotting ever since," the insider added.

A source told Hollywood Life: "She [Selena] knows Rob but they are not starting to talk or discussing anything about becoming an item. She would definitely hang out with him especially if it made Kris happy since she is friendly with Kris [Jenner] but it would be friendship only."

The 28-year-old sock designer has remained out of the spotlight since gaining weight. Rob did not attend Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding in Florence, Italy, on 24 May 2014, after she reportedly commented about his weight gain.

In a Rolling Stone interview, Kim had commented about his weight gain. "It's not that mysterious, what's happening with Rob. He has gained weight. He feels uncomfortable being on the show, and that's OK. Do I think he smokes weed, drinks beer, hangs out and plays video games with his friends all day long? Yes," Kim told the publication.

Meanwhile, Kris had revealed he is getting back on track with exercise and healthy eating habits. "He's doing terrific. Robert's good. He's working out and eating [well], so he's on a good path right now," she told Entertainment Tonight, according to The Mirror.
