(E!)
Kris Jenner breaks down and cries in a new clip from this week’s “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” distraught over son Rob Kardashian’s weight gain and reclusiveness in the midst of his severe depression. The emotional moment comes during a meeting with a life coach Jenner has enlisted to help the family get Kardashian back on course. Watch the video below.
The clip begins with Kim Kardashian lamenting that she left multiple notes for Rob, expressing her concern but telling him he’s not alone, except he never responded. Jenner tells her, “I feel like if I don’t help him do something drastic, that he’s going to die.”
The reality TV matriarch decides to meet with a life coach because “this is someone who can help dissect the situation and figure out what’s going on.” The meeting happens with Kim and Kourtney Kardashian but without Khloe, because Jenner fears she’s a little too “protective” of Rob and could throw off the process.
Jenner tells the life coach what kind of person Rob was before his meltdown, describing his past as an athlete and hard worker, before revealing he’s gained over 100 pounds in the last year. She then breaks down in tears, saying it’s “upsetting” how reclusive Rob has become, not leaving the house and skipping events like Christmas and Kim’s wedding. “It’s very upsetting,” she says.
“He is the king of excuses,” declares Kim. The life coach thinks there’s something to Kim’s tough-love approach, saying it sounds as though Rob knows what buttons to press to get what he wants from the family. Jenner tearfully tells him, “It’s just like you’re waiting for this horrible thing to happen, and there’s nothing you can do about it.” Watch the video below.
