The Kardashians reportedly threatened to leave E! before being offered a $100 million four-year contract for their show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”.

The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” stars recently signed a new four-year contract with the channel for the eye-watering sum but it’s now been reported they threatened to leave the network before securing the deal. Claiming the Kardashian’s matriarch Kris Jenner was lead negotiator for her family, a source shared: ‘’This has been in the works for almost a year. Kris is a fierce negotiator . . . She was playing major hardball and threatening to leave.’’

The 59-year-old star and her daughters -Kim Kardashian West, Kourtney Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner – have been starring in the E! show since 2007 and network bosses were keen to keep them bringing in viewers.

Meanwhile, 34-year-old Kim – who has 20-month-old daughter North with husband Kanye West – took to her Instagram account to post a racy picture of herself wearing skimpy lingerie to celebrate hitting 27 million followers on the social media site. – Wires.
