Kris Jenner has revealed that she first heard about her daughter’s pregnancy while watching ABC News.
During the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” Jenner explained, “I woke up, opened my eyes, and right in front of me — because we had left the TV on the night before and woke up really early in the morning — to see Kourtney holding a sign. And I thought I was being ‘Punk’d.’ And then I realized it was the ABC News.”
The daughter in question, Kourtney Kardashian, announced her pregnancy to the world in June, when she held up a handwritten sign at husband Travis Barker’s Blink-182 show in Los Angeles. The sign simply read, “Travis, I’m pregnant.”
Kardashian — who married Barker in 2022 — has insisted that she didn’t intend to keep her mom in the dark.
“I just truly didn’t think to invite them to the Los Angeles concert and didn’t think that they would care to come,” she said.
Kardashian announced the birth of her son Rocky in early November. But prior to that, she praised her mom after she underwent emergency surgery in order to save her baby’s life.
Kardashian —who also has Mason, Penelope, and Reign, with ex-boyfriend Scott Disick — wrote on Instagram, “I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life. I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.
“As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery,” she continued. “I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear. I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant.
“Praise be to God,” Kardashian continued. “Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing.”
