Well, that didn’t take long. Just one month after seemingly breaking up with Younes Bendjima, Kourtney Kardashian is back together with her model boyfriend, Us Weekly reports. The pair were spotted getting takeout on Monday, from Malibu hot spot Bui Sushi. The Daily Mail published photos of the duo looking very much a couple.

While neither Kardashian nor Bendjima has confirmed that their relationship is indeed back on (they also never confirmed that they had broken up), a source told Us Weekly that after some miscommunication, they’ve “worked it out and are giving it another shot.” Though we can’t say for sure, some of that alleged miscommunication might have stemmed from the time Bendjima publicly shamed Kardashian after she posted a swimsuit photo on Instagram. They reportedly broke up shortly after the incident, and Bendjima wasted little time in embracing the single life.

After he was spotted cozying up to a model on the beach, Bendjima was accused of lacking the necessary tact one requires to break up gracefully, something Bendjima denied via Instagram. “They really want me to be the bad guy,” Bendjima wrote at the time. “F*ck your Hollywood bullshit,” he added. “Once again you guys failed. I’m not attached to this ‘life’ so you can’t touch me. I know who I am, where I’m from, and where I’m going and that bothers you. Only one opinion matter [sic]: The one of my Lord. Have a wonderful day.”

The pair first started dating in 2017 after meeting in Paris the year before. For a while, they were inseparable, but a source told People that they started having problems after returning from a European vacation just prior to their breakup. “Things were not great,” the source said in August. “He and Kourtney didn’t get along.”

Though we still don’t know the catalyst behind this surprise rekindling in Malibu, something tells us the KUWTK cameras weren’t too far behind.
