“He’s happier,” says source


Rob Kardashian has made a promise to improve his wellness, and his high-profile family could not be prouder.

“Everyone is just excited about how well Rob is doing,” a 33-year-old source told PEOPLE. “He’s doing really well.”

Just this week, Rob shared images of a recent family outing that turned out to be in honor of his sister Kylie Jenner’s 23rd birthday. Until recently, the reality TV star simply shrugged off from posting photos of himself on social media.

The source says Rob “had a lot of work to do when it comes to his health and he remains very committed.” And as a result, “He is happier and healthier.”

“Taking him on Kylie’s birthday trip was such a treat for the whole family. They love to have him around,” the source said.

Another source previously told PEOPLE that Rob has been intentional lately in his focus on wellness.

“Rob is doing well. He takes care of himself, works out and eats better,” said the source about the father of one who has struggled with depression, weight gain and type 2 diabetes in recent years.

“For a long time, he was unhappy and embarrassed about the way he looked,” the source said. But now, “he knows he looks better there. He’s comfortable enough to photograph,” the source added. “He wants people to know he’s doing it right.”

“Rob will be more on the show,” said Khloé, 36, adding, “We film more inside our homes, and he’s right there with us. I’m excited for everyone to see that. He’s so a good person and I’m just glad he’s a little more on camera. “
