On an episode ofKeeping Up with the Kardashiansthat aired last year, Kris got emotional as she opened up aboutthe challenges of being awayfrom MJ amid the COVID-19 pandemic. (MJ had injured herself before lockdown began in 2020,resulting in her being stuck at home longer than most.)
“I just miss her,” Kris said. “I feel so bad because she’s lonely. She’s been in that apartment for two months because of her fracture.”
“I really miss MJ a lot. We always have things planned and talk about where we’re going to go and what we’re going to do,” she continued. “The longer this goes, I’m feeling a sense of loss because I can’t be with her.”
