The new Keeping Up With The Kardashians trailer was met with a notable amount of backlash after it showed Kim literally punching her sister Kourtney in the face after she threw a water bottle at her during a fight.

Unsurprisingly, a lot of viewers thought it was pathetic two grown women were unable to sort through their differences in a civil manner, with even their mum Kris Jenner in agreeance.

Appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the 64-year-old said she was mortified when she watched the scene back, leaving us wondering why she allowed it to be aired in the first place if she’s the show’s executive producer.

“I wasn’t there when they had that argument. And I have not seen them really fight like that since they were in high school,” Kris said of Kourtney, 40, and Kim, 39.

“There was one time, I think it was way back when, when Kim … did anybody see when Kim beat one of the kids over the head with her purse because her rims on her car weren’t right, it was so silly. It took me back to that, but it made me really sad.

“I was like ‘You guys can’t be fighting with each other,'” she added. “That’s ridiculous, you know. Grow up.”

During her chat with the wildly popular talk show host, the momager was aked why Kourtney was featured so heavily in the teaser trailer considering she revealed in December 2019 that she would not be filming the upcoming season. At the time, the Poosh Founder said she felt immense pressure to share certain parts of her life with the world that she’d rather keep private. 

“She’s filming again. I gave her some [money],” Kris confessed. “I think she just needed a little bit of a break. You know how we all hit a tipping point, and she hit a wall. She was frustrated and she felt under-appreciated and that her sisters didn’t understand her boundaries. So I think after taking a little bit of time off, she’s seen the light. The Kardashian light.”

She continued: “We actually all really enjoy doing the show because we get to be together all day. We’re about to start our 19th season, we’re just filming it. So yeah, I think she would miss us.”

Last month, Kim confirmed we were set to see her relationship with Kourtney go from bad to worse, with the mum-of-four and makeup mogul admitting they’re still working hard to repair their fractured bond. 

“What sucks is that season 18 will come out soon and it gets worse before it gets better,” Kim said while appearing on Ellen DeGeneres’ talk show in January. “But her and I have healed and have talked about everything and really come to an understanding.” 

As we know, the wife of Kanye West was fed up with Kourtney’s “laziness” and lack of ambition, with one source claiming the eldest sister was pushed out by Kim who not only “belittles” her but “can’t stand to be around her“.

“If one family member goes on vacation a lot or takes time off a lot, the other family members have to step in and take over those hours,” Kim said, venting her frustration during an interview in January. “So for the past year, Khloé and I have been taking over her hours, working, because we need content to make the show.'” 

“It’s been exhausting for us when she hasn’t taken that into consideration without making a decision of what she wants to do,’ she said. ‘Stay on the show, not, but to be in this limbo and have us do this for so long is frustrating.”
