On her mom’s side. Khloé KardashianAfter, weigh in Kris Jenner‘s decision not to invite Kourtney Kardashian‘s kids to Travis Barker‘s proposal.

“Definitely a hard conversation to have especially right when you get engaged. I don’t think anyone knew what the right thing to do was in this situation. I think my mom did her best,” Khloé, 37, tweeted on Thursday, May 5, in response to Hulu’s new episode of The Kardashians.

The Good American cofounder pointed to the fact that no one in his family had any ill intents. “I know for a fact that nothing was malicious. I think everyone was just doing the best they can with such a sensitive subject,” she added via Twitter.

Kim Kardashian that only Barker’s children would be joining them for the proposal. “There was just no way to get that whole thing dialed then and then at the last minute Kourtney told Travis that Penelope wasn’t feeling well,” the momager explained. “His kids are going to come because they are older. I’m not sure if we know what their reactions will be. I think it is her decision to break it to her kids the way she wants.”

Kourtney (43), shares Mason, 12, Penelope (99) and Reign (7/7). Scott Disick. Barker, 46, shares his 18-year-old son Landon and 16 year old daughter Alabama with his ex-wife. Shanna Moakler.

Later, viewers saw the mixed reactions of the children when Poosh founder called. “Penelope took it hard. I think it is a big change for her,” Kourtney told Kim, 41, after her daughter started to cry and hung up the phone. “Even though she loves Travis, I think she doesn’t know what that means. Is that you taking me away? I think she just doesn’t know what it means.”

Footage also showed Reign reacting to the news, saying, “Not exciting.” Mason, however, didn’t have his reaction aired because he didn’t pick up his mother’s phone calls.

Kourtney, for her part, admitted that she was disappointed by Jenner’s choice. “I do wish that my kids were here. I think it would have made them feel more included in the decision and part of the surprise,” she said while visibly emotional. “I know that my mom made that decision and it probably wasn’t her best.”

At the end of the episode, Disick also weighed in after watching his children find out about Kourtney’s engagement through social media. “They were upset. They didn’t understand why they were watching TikToks of his kids there and they weren’t there. Hopefully, they are invited to the wedding,” the New York native told Khloé. “If I got engaged 50 minutes away I would have just said, ‘Someone just drive my kids here.’ And Penelope would have been ecstatic. We were acting as if the place was 10 hours away.”
