KUWTK: Scott Disick Blocks Out ‘Noise’ Over Amelia Hamlin Age Gap
Scott Disick is unbothered by criticism over his 18-year age gap with Amelia Hamlin. Sources for the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star say he is ignores the "noise" from outsiders who take issue with him dating a 19-year-old. This isn't the first time Scott has riled people up over his affection for much younger women.
It was last August when Scott called it quits with his ex-girlfriend of three years, Sofia Richie. Like Amelia, Sofia was just 19 when she and Scott went public with their romance back in 2017. Sofia's father Lionel Richie was never in support of his daughter dating the 37-year-old reality star. With three kids with his ex Kourtney Kardashian, Scott has a drastically different lifestyle from the coming of age young women he chooses to date. Following his breakup, the Flip it Like Disick star hit the dating scene hard before settling down with the teenage daughter of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna and actor Harry Hamlin.
Amid all the chatter over their confirmed relationship, insiders for the Talentless founder say he isn't phased by all of the backlash. "Scott isn’t bothered by the backlash to their relationship, he really couldn’t care less what people think,” a source told Hollywood Life. The only opinions that matter to Scott are from “his inner circle" of friends and their apparently fine with his current romance. "His friends and loved ones are fine with it and his kids really like Amelia so that’s what counts to him," they explained while referring to the criticism as "just noise." When it comes to how Scott feels about Amelia, "he’s been having a great time with Amelia, he really likes her, and the relationship is the real deal," the source claimed.
For those accusing him and Amelia of trying to put on a publicity stunt for attention, that couldn't be further from the truth. "As far as he is concerned the haters are going to find a way to hate no matter what he does so he’s living his life and not thinking about what outsiders have to say," the insider added. The father of three was enjoying his single life before catching feelings for the young model. But her qualities of being "hilarious" and "super laid back" have him smitten with Amelia. "They have an amazing time together, and she lets him be himself," the source shared. "He really hasn’t lost any of the freedom or time to spend with his kids so he has no reason to stop seeing her and he’s enjoying every moment.”
It didn't take that long for Scott to seemingly fall hard after his breakup. Meanwhile, Sofia has been spotted on a few dates but hasn't entertained a serious relationship with anyone. Now with Scott in Amelia's life, fans are wondering if he will make an appearance on the upcoming season of RHOBH. Many are curious as to how Lisa and her husband feel about their daughter's older boyfriend.
