Kris Jenner wants her daughter Kylie to "reconsider" dating Jaden Smith.

The 17-year-old reality star is currently in a relationship with 25-year-old rapper Tyga but her family would reportedly prefer her to be with the Karate Kid actor, who she was previously romantically linked with in 2013.

A source said: "Kylie has been seeing Jaden for support and her mum Kris really wants her to reconsider the romance.

"She'd love her to marry into an acting dynasty and she think they'd make the perfect power couple."

But with the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star keen to step out of the shadow of her family by launching a music career, she is hoping she and Tyga can become "even bigger" than her half-sister Kim Kardashian West and her husband Kanye West.

The source added: "Kylie has been in the studio for months working on her singing.

"She thinks she and Tyga could become the hot new showbiz couple and become even bigger than Kim and Kanye."

And Kim - who is expecting her second child, a brother for two-year-old daughter North - is feeling frustrated at Kylie's attempts to emulate her own success.

The source told Closer magazine: "Kim feels Kylie has become her little copycat and she doesn't like it.

"She's feeling really insecure about her body at the moment and doesn't want Kylie making her feel worse by looking like a younger version."
