Their alleged romance is controversial to say the least, but Kylie Jenner and boyfriend Tyga appear to be closer than ever in recent weeks.

Despite Kylie still being under the age of consent in her home state of California and Tyga formerly engaged to model Blac Chyna- with whom he has a son with- the 17-year-old recently claimed that she is ‘pretty much married’ to the musician.

But big sister Khloe, 31, has defended Kylie’s relationship, claiming that it’s not totally out of the ordinary.

She told Complex magazine: “I think at 16 I was probably f**king someone that was in their 20s, for sure. I wouldn’t say I was even dating, probably just sleeping with them."

"But again, Kylie is not a normal 17-year-old. You’re not gonna say, 'Hey, so what are you doing this weekend?' and have her say, 'Having a slumber party at my girlfriend’s' or 'Going to prom.' That’s not what Kylie does.

“Kylie is taking business meetings and bought her first house, or she’s going on a private plane with Karl Lagerfeld to take a meeting. That’s not even what people do in their 30s. It’s a rare circumstance, so let’s treat this as a special case.”

Khloe also hit out at Kanye West’s ex-girlfriend Amber Rose and her comments about Kylie’s relationship with the hip hop star.

Earlier this year, Amber made it clear that she thought Kylie was too young to be dating pal Blac Chyna’s ex-fiance.

But Khloe told Complex: "I just feel like it was unnecessary for her to say anything, and I used her own quote back. It was from her talking about when she became a stripper so I’m like, ‘How are you judging and saying Kylie should have a curfew?’"

The interview ran alongside some provocative photos of the reality star where she showed off her toned but curvy figure.

Khloe took to Twitter to credit sister Kim Kardashian for encouraging her to take part in the raunchy shoot.

She wrote: “I have to shout out and thank my incredibly supportive sister @kimkardashian for forcing me to do this complex shoot.”

Khloe added: “I have been procrastinating it because I was too scared to do the shoot! But Kimberly made me and had more… confidence in me then I had myself!! I love you Keeks!”
