Kris Jenner gives health update
In the past few weeks, Kris Jenner found out that she has a tumor in her ovary. The matriarch of the Kardashian family decided to undergo surgery. In the latest episode of "The Kardashians," she shared the details of her conversation with the doctor.
As the "Momager" of Kim Kardashian and her many sisters, Kris Jenner is the unwavering rock of the family: However, at the beginning of July, the 68-year-old revealed in the family reality series "The Kardashians" that a tumor was found in her ovary. Now, she has disclosed the results after the removal of the tissue.
"I received a call this afternoon," Jenner reported in the latest episode about her conversation with her doctor, as she recovered from the procedure on her couch at home. Her daughter Khloé Kardashian was visiting, as screenshots from the reality show published by "Daily Mail" show. "The little tumor was benign," she burst out. Although she was still "a little swollen" and "a little sore," Jenner felt "fantastic."
Elective Hysterectomy
Kris Jenner had decided not only to have the ovary tumor removed but also her ovaries and the uterus. Through the hysterectomy, she would "give nothing a chance to grow." The decision weighed heavily on the 68-year-old, as the uterus had given her six children: "I will be taking something away that has given me the six best things in my life," Jenner sighed as she prepared her children mentally for the operation in an older episode.
She must observe two weeks of bed rest and cannot engage in sports, Jenner further shared in the latest episode about the postoperative instructions from her treating surgeon. Her partner Corey Gamble joked about this: "We won't be able to meet for about two weeks."
Kris Jenner was pregnant at the age of 41 with her daughter Kylie Jenner. Currently, the American is a 13-time grandmother. Since 2014, she has been in a relationship with the 36-year-old entrepreneur Gamble. In 2021, she gushed about him in "Wall Street Journal": "He's the biggest guy and he's just an amazing support for me. He really gives me a lot of strength."
After sharing the benign nature of her tumor, Kris Jenner mentioned her decision to undergo an elective hysterectomy to prevent any potential growths, despite the emotional toll it would take as she had given birth to six of her children through her uterus. During her recovery, she was advised to observe two weeks of bed rest and avoid physical activities, leading to a light-hearted joke from her partner, Corey Gamble. In a bid to support her family, Kim Kardashian often turns to reality TV shows like "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and "The Kardashians," which have provided a platform for her to share her personal battles, including her own challenges with endometriosis.
