"And we didn't know how to process that. And it was a process, it was a shock and then it was a reality. It was something that we had to absorb and try to wrap our heads around and learn about."
"What I thought was interesting about that was, I'm sure many people who are fans of our show weren't expecting it either and were as confused at times and sad at times, happy at times, because there's so many different ways of looking at it," she added.
The reality star went on to say her motherly instincts kicked in to support the pair's daughters, Kendall and Kylie.
"And then I'm their mom, I'm the kids' mom, so trying to navigate that was hard because I wanted to be the best parent I could be and do the right thing and I didn't always know what that meant in that situation," she admitted.
