Kris Jenner opened up about her daughter Kim Kardashian's October 2016 Paris robbery during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Monday, February 20. While discussing the upcoming 13th season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, the momager revealed how the reality series handled the aftermath of the harrowing incident.
"The first episode you're going to see is when the
girls were in Miami, doing something with the Dash stores, and then the
Paris incident happened," Jenner, 61, said. "It was devastating."
"When we started filming again and started getting
up and running, obviously Kim was around because we all practically live
together on the same street," she continued. "We started filming and
what was coming out of that was very therapeutic for her, I think, to
just explain to us and walk us through [the robbery]."
Kardashian,
36, was robbed of more than $10 million in jewelry while tied up and
held at gunpoint inside her private residence in Paris in October 2016.
Production on the family's E! reality series was briefly put on hold in
the aftermath. "Kim's well-being is our core focus right now," an E!
spokesperson told Us Weekly in a statement at the time. Ten
suspects have been charged so far in association with the crime.
Kardashian testified in a New York City courthouse earlier this month.Jenner told Ellen DeGeneres on Monday's episode that reliving the ordeal on KUWTK
has been difficult for the family. "Nobody can even get through the
first five minutes without being hysterical," she said of watching the
footage. "I get choked up just thinking about it and talking about it.
But it's remarkable to listen to [Kim] tell the story."
The businesswoman explained that her daughter chose to
openly discuss the robbery to "bring some awareness." She also noted
that the incident changed the way the Kardashian-Jenner clan "live our
lives and the way we take care of our kids and my grandchildren."
