While Kendall tends to keep her personal life private, she's been more open about her romance with 24-year-old Devin. She even addressed a fan during the Keeping Up With the Kardashians: The Final Curtain reunion, who asked why it appears she only dates basketball players. 

"I actually don't only date basketball players, if anyone's ever done their research, but I'm not ashamed that I have a type," she said. "I'm also just a genuine basketball fan, so that's just kind of happened."

As for why she's chosen not to be as open as her sisters about her relationships, Kendall noted, "[My sister] Kylie [Jenner] and I have had the opportunity to watch our older sisters go through marriages and relationships and breakups and all these things, and do them pretty publicly. ...I think it makes my life a lot easier and our relationship a lot better [to remain private], to be completely honest. I just feel like it's a private matter, it's not really for anybody else to judge or know."
