He's simply not having it
Kendall Jenner‘s former bodyguard sat down with Reality Shrine to talk all things security for The Kardashians star. He’s revealed exactly what it was like to have Kendall as a client when she was in her late teenage years, and even spoke out about those accusations that Kendall is really rude to waitresses and public hospitality workers in real life.
Kendall Jenner’s former bodyguard reveals what she’s REALLY like
Kendall Jenner’s former bodyguard, Simon Newton, looked after her when she was 18. Amid the recent accusations that Kendall is a mean girl in real life, and doesn’t treat waitresses with kindness. However, Simon has spoken out against those accusations and exclusively told us: “I had Bella and Kendall when they were 18 and 19, so they were still quite young.”
He added, “For me, they were great for me to work with. Even Kendall, I never had a problem with any of them to be honest, they were just great and very young. You know, they were always busy when they were in London, they were always working, mainly London Fashion Week or something like that. You do long hours, you do long days, but that’s not really down to them.”
“That’s just how the schedule is. In terms of the way they used to treat me, they used to treat me very well. They were really good to me – I don’t know if everyone got treated the same way, but I was lucky enough to be on the good side of them,” Simon added, who would stand by a lift waiting for his clients to come down 90 percent of the time.
He gave an insight into the crazy schedule he abode by
Simon revealed that he would always wake up before Kendall and wouldn’t go to bed until after she had. It was time to leave that security job behind after years of being Bella Hadid’s bodyguard, having looked after Michael Jackson, Dizzie Rascal, Halsey, and Naomi Campbell, before becoming a clothing brand owner of Simon Newton London, and an actor himself.
He said, “If they’re out and about seven days a week, I’m out seven days a week. I never had any difficult customers if you like, everyone was really good to me, but equally, I could choose who I work for. If I didn’t want to take a job on, I’d just say I wasn’t available, but by and large, I was very musical artists and model-heavy.”
He’s since done films with the likes of Matt Damon in The Green Zone and more recently, Rise of the Foot Soldier: Ibiza, which comes out in November. Simon wasn’t able to pursue the acting career properly while working as a bodyguard, so Kendall and Bella had to find new security guards to make sure they were kept safe!
