Kylie Jenner reveals she cried watching ‘KUWTK’ with daughter

Kylie Jenner is opening up about an emotional parenting moment that took her by surprise.

The reality star and beauty mogul, 28, revealed that she became overwhelmed with emotion after watching an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians with her 8-year-old daughter, Stormi, who recently asked her why is she famous?

Speaking on Kid Cudi’s podcast Big Bro, Jenner recalled sitting Stormi down to explain how their family rose to global fame. “We started a television show when I was a year older than you, and that’s why we’re all in this together,” she told her daughter. “She was like, ‘Can I watch it?’ And I’m like, ‘Sure.’”

While revisiting the early days of the Kardashian family’s rise, Jenner said she skipped over more inappropriate moments but watched some of the lighter scenes with her daughter. What followed, however, was an unexpected wave of emotion.

“I was so emotional after. I don’t know what hit me, but I was weeping in my bed. I don’t know why that happened to me,” she said. “I was just like maybe it’s like my daughter being the same age as I was [or] just seeing my family and I’m just feeling so grateful for all that we’ve built, but also mourning that closeness when we were all kind of living under the same roof.”

“It was very emotional. I didn’t know it was going to hit me like that,” the Kylie Cosmetic founder added.
