Kris Jenner finally weighs in on Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s split

Kris Jenner has spoken to Kyle and Jackie O about the high-profile divorce daughter Kim Kardashian is going through with Kanye West.

Kim Kardashian-West said to have ‘divorce plan in place’

From Calabasas’ lips to God’s ears.

Kris Jenner has broken her historic silence on the dissolution of her daughter Kim Kardashian’s marriage to Kanye West, saying in a new interview that “the goal” is for all parties – the couple’s children and themselves – to be happy.

“I think it’s always going to be hard any time … you know, there’s a lot of kids,” Jenner said on The Kyle & Jackie O Show on Friday morning. “The good thing about our family is that we are there for each other and supportive and we love each other very, very much – so all I want is for those two kids to be happy. And I want the kids to be happy. That’s the goal.”

West and Kardashian have four children – daughters North, 7, and Chicago, 3, and sons Saint, 5, and Psalm, 1. (Presumably, by “those two kids,” Jenner meant West and Kardashian.)

The famous “momager” added: “I think we all want that for our families – just to be able to have the love and appreciation of one another, and that everyone’s OK. That’s what you want as a mum.”

It’s been one day shy of a month since Kardashian officially filed for divorce from West, though Page Six reported in January the couple were headed for a split.

And with the final season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians premiering on Thursday, it’s probable that more members of the famously media-savvy family will begin addressing the split in public.

West and Jenner have had a fractious relationship – even going by the usual standard metric for in-laws. He once called her “Kris Jong-un” in an eventually deleted tweet from July 2020.

“They tried to fly in with 2 doctors to 51/50 me,” he added during the same stream-of-consciousness update, referring to the California welfare code providing for involuntary holds for individuals and adding the phrase “White supremacy” onto another update that mentioned Jenner and his then-wife.

And in January, a source told Page Six that West had become “sick of being involved with the Kardashians … Especially her mother [Kris Jenner], who looms large in all big decisions she makes.”
