“Kourtney, that is not an insult,” Khloé reassured her. In response, Kourtney asked, “Do I look like I’m in my 60s?” Reflecting on the situation in her confessional, Kourtney explained, “Obviously she’s my mom, and she’s beautiful. And she’s 20-something years older than me, so it’s not like the ultimate compliment. Or it kind of is I guess?”
The camera then cuts back to the scene where Khloé persistently urges Tatum to say, “Hi Auntie Kourt.” “Kourt,” Tatum finally said after understanding his mother. “Yes, this is Auntie Kourt, not Lovey,” Khloé told her son.
