Kris Jenner learned a lot from her first divorce.
The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star, who split from Bruce Jenner in October 2013 after 23 years of marriage, says her split from her late ex-husband, Robert Kardashian, in 1991 was initially "ugly and hard" and is determined to stay on good terms with the Olympic gold medallist, 64, for the sake of their family.
She told ‘The Talk’: "I went through a divorce a long time ago with Robert Kardashian and it was not fun. It was so scary and I was so young and I had four kids and it was… and then we ended up being best friends. But there was a period of a couple of years in there where it was really, you know, ugly and hard. You didn’t want the kids to take sides."
She added: "Well, that was a really good learning experience for me, because I learned how to deal with something again, if I ever…if it ever came up and now we’re going through it. You can choose to do things in a real grown-up way and be friends through something and make it so that everyone around you is comfortable and happy.
"Divorce is a decision. It’s not a good decision but we’re happier living apart than we were together. Everybody feels it. But anything can happen. And the good in my life so outweighs the bad."
Kris, who is set to celebrate her 59th birthday on Wednesday (05.11.14), recently started dating Justin Bieber’s road manager Corey Gamble, 41, and likes "to look at the glass half-full."
She said: "So every day, I get up and count my blessings and I thank god that everyone is happy and healthy and strong and we’ll get through."
