Kendall Jenner shared unexpected details about her past on the latest episode of The Kardashians. The 29-year-old model surprised her mother, Kris Jenner, with two candid admissions from her youth.
During the October 23 episode, filmed as the family prepared to say goodbye to their childhood home, Kendall made the first revelation. She initially told Kris, "I lost my virginity in that room."
Kendall quickly clarified her statement. She then added, "Actually, no. It was at their house."
Kris, 69, appeared taken aback by the comment. Kendall, however, asserted that her parents "didn’t care" about her activities when she lived with them. She claimed Kris "not only did not know, she actually didn’t care about anything."
Kendall further elaborated on her mother’s perceived detachment. "She was like, ‘Are you going out until Wednesday? Great. Don’t ever come back,’" Kendall recounted. "We were the 5th and 6th daughters and she just didn’t have the energy for us anymore."
Later in the episode, Kendall dropped another bombshell regarding her teen years. She confessed to Kris, "I’m going to the cabin to say goodbye. I used to smoke a lot of weed there when you weren’t looking."
Kendall specified her age during these incidents. She was 16, and her younger sister Kylie Jenner was 14 at the time. "We would close those curtains," she recalled.
Beyond these personal disclosures, Kendall has frequently discussed her plans for a family in the past. She has spoken about "baby fever" in various interviews.
In a 2019 interview with E! News, she stated, "Some days, I’m there and I’m like, ‘Oh my god, I think it’s happening. I think I have baby fever.’"
However, she later joked on a 2022 episode of The Kardashians that her numerous nieces and nephews often serve as "a great contraceptive." She explained, "Just because it’s too much."
Kendall has also expressed discomfort with questions about having children. She told her mother on the show, "You keep telling me, ‘You’re not getting any younger.’ But, you know what? It’s my life. I don’t know if I’m ready yet."
Despite Kendall’s stance, Kris took the initiative to call her gynecologist to inquire about egg freezing for her daughter. Kendall responded firmly. She said, "I still have a lot of things to figure out before I can welcome a child into my life. I’m still enjoying my life alone. And right now I’m okay with that."
More recently, Kendall defended her choice to not rush into motherhood. In a 2024 interview with Vogue, she shared, "As a young person, I used to say at 27 I would love to have kids."
She continued, "Now I’m past that age and I feel like I’m still very young. I’m enjoying my child-free freedom."
Kendall also credited fellow supermodel Christy Turlington as an inspiration. Turlington has seemingly balanced her career and family life with grace.
"She seemed so calm and focused. I really appreciated her energy throughout," Kendall commented. "And I feel like life outside of modeling and family was really important to her."
She concluded, "Relationships mean a lot to me, and I can’t wait to have a life with someone someday, have children, start a family. Christy just gives off good vibes. Maybe she cared a little less! I think that’s great."
New episodes of The Kardashians are released every Thursday on Hulu.
