Kylie Jenner has emotionally broken down in a new trailer for the upcoming fifth series of The Kardashians, as she poignantly revealed her mum Kris’ worrying health scare. In a harrowing new clip released to promote the show, Kris, 68 gathered her children together to break the news that during a recent scan, doctors had found a small tumour.
“I had my scan – they found a cyst and a little tumour,” explains Kris in the tense scene, before the trailer immediately cuts to 26 year old Kylie, the star’s youngest daughter, as she broke down in tears before being consoled by older sister Kendall, 28. Tugging Kylie into a tight embrace, Kendall comforted her younger sister as she sobbed uncontrollably, with the rest of the trailer failing to give anything else away about Kris’ health status.
From the trailer, it’s currently unclear where exactly the cyst and tumour are located, but during the brief clip of Kris informing her family, the Kardashian matriarch notably gestures to the left side of her abdomen, hinting at the possibility that it could be one of the organs there.
Although the word ‘tumour’ will no doubt spark alarm, the trailer also doesn’t elaborate further as to whether the tumour is cancerous or benign, nor what – if any – treatment Kris will need to undergo in order to treat the condition. The reason behind the initial scan is also currently a mystery, as the star hadn’t revealed whether it was a routine discovery or found as part of a bigger investigation to address any symptoms she may have been experiencing.
Kris, much like the rest of the Kardashian family previously came under fire back in 2023 when they actively promoted full body MRI’s from a brand called Prenuvo on social media. The scans, which cost patients thousands of dollars to perform, were largely advertised as being able to detect early pre-symptomatic signs of a variety of diseases, including things like cancer, spinal degeneration, MS detection and even metabolic disorders such as haemochromatosis.
However, despite the scary news there is a glimmer of hope for fans of the star, as she appeared to be in good spirits when she walked the Met Gala red carpet this week to celebrate the Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Dressed in a chic white dress designed by Oscar De La Renta, the ensemble featured a sweeping overcoat and lavish train as she posed alongside her partner, Corey Gamble, who also opted for a stylish cream suit. With Kris appearing to be all smiles, it does hint that the star’s health woes may be well in hand, but fans will have to tune into the new series to find out the full story when it hits out screens later this month.
