Kris Jenner has spoken about her daughter Khloe Kardashian’s split from her husband.
Kris said Khloe, 29, was in the midst of a “cleansing time” following her divorce from former basketball player Lamar Odom on December 13.
“What Khloe is going through is definitely challenging, I’m not going to lie,” she told People magazine.
“It’s also a very interesting time for her because it’s very cleansing.
“She’s also showed this side of her that I didn’t know she had. I always knew Khloe was strong, but I never dreamed that she had this kind of strength.”
Court documents filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court cite “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
Khloe is not asking for spousal support, but requested that “Odom” be removed from the end of her name.
Khloe had remained silent on the split until Wednesday when she took to Twitter, saying: “This, in and of itself, is heartbreaking and torture to my soul. Please, I don’t need the extra rumors and BS right now.”
The rumours she referred to are reports she has begun dating American professional baseball player Matt Kemp.
Khloe and Lamar, who married in 2009 exactly one month after meeting, have been surround by split speculation since Lamar’s alleged drug abuse began putting a strain on the marriage.
