Kris Jenner has admitted she was a “kept woman” before she took charge of her own finances.

The mother of six told The Wall Street Journal that when she was married to her first husband Robert Kardashian, she never really handled any bills.

At that time, the grandma had no idea how much her gardener was being paid.

Then one of Kris’s friends challenged her and from then on, the momager decided to do things differently.

“One day, my friend Shelli Azoff said to me when I was going through my divorce [from Robert], ‘How much is your gardener?’ And I said, ‘I don’t know,’” the 65-year-old said.

When she was still with the father of her eldest kids, Kris was accustomed to a life of luxury.

She had everything she needed and Robert provided her with a sense of security.

But one day, things changed. The now wealthy woman had a ton of responsibilities and had to rely on herself to pay for them all.

“I woke up one day to responsibilities that I hadn’t had the day before. And I needed to figure it out,” the Kardashian matriarch added.

"I remember when Kendall was young, my mum and her dad would ask me to babysit because they had to work. Any time I stepped out with her in a stroller, people assumed I was her mother," the reality star detailed as Kendall stared at her.
