Kris Jenner is opening up about her health.

Kris then started crying as she added, “I’m emotional about it because that’s where all my kids were conceived. That’s where they were grown. This is a very sacred place to me.”
“The emotional part for me is just having that gone,” Kris continued. “If I can get through a hip replacement then I can get through this. I am not nervous to be put to sleep but then you go to do it and it is so real. It is also a thing about getting older and it is a sign that we are done with this part of your life. It is a whole chapter that is closed.”
Kris‘ kids then reacted to health news in confessionals.
Kim Kardashian said, “To have a surgery and remove your ovary is a really big deal. I feel really sad for her. I can’t even imagine being in that situation and how you would feel really scared to be going through that.”
Kourtney Kardashian sympathized with her mom’s emotions, saying, “I totally understand how my mom is feeling because I would feel the same way. It is like your womanly power and it doesn’t mean you are taking away who she is but I would feel this sentimental feeling of what it has created.”
Kendall Jenner, however, admitted that she didn’t understand why Kris wasn’t only focused on her health.
“I get her emotion behind it and that it is sad because she has brought all her kids into the world. But at the same time, what are we going to use those for anymore?” Kendall, 28, questioned. “If they are potentially hurting you then let’s get them out of there.”
In a preview for next week’s episode of The Kardashians, Kris hinted at more health issues.
“It started out as just getting some ovaries removed and then today I got a phone call…” Kris told close friends Faye Resnick and Kathy Hilton in the teaser.
If you missed it, Kris also recently opened up about her 25-year age gap with longtime boyfriend Corey Gamble.
New episodes of The Kardashians are released on Thursdays on Hulu.
