The way things are going, Bette Midler will soon be marrying into the Kardashian/Jenner/West family.

The legendary performer recently inserted herself into the Kardashian Kosmos when she tweeted shade at Kim's nude selfies. And as Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian's recent engagement has shown us, Kardashian enemies are usurped into the family via holy matrimony.

Midler tweeted her confusion over the family tree and demanded answers. And yes, it's pretty weird that Blac Chyna is the wind beneath Rob Kardashian's wings. 

But of course, many charts of this modern Shakespearian drama already exist to provide klarification. 

For the Bette Midlers of the world who need help getting caught up: Blac Chyna was engaged to Tyga, Kylie Jenner's current boyfriend and the couple share a son, King Cairo. Kim and Blac Chyna were tight, but that ended and Blac Chyna became a family enemy and, naturally, BFFs with Amber Rose, Kanye's ex.

Meanwhile, Rob backed away from the spotlight, refusing to attend Kim's wedding and reportedly feuding with his family and dealing with his own mental health issues. That was until he and Blac Chyna began their well-documented relationship, which somehow ended up bringing peace in this twisted web. 

Blac Chyna and Rob are now engaged, and she plans to change her name to Angela Kardashian.

See? Totally easy to understand, Bette.
