During Thursday’s episode ofThe Kardashians, Kris, 67, opened up to daughterKhloé Kardashianaboutcheating on her father,Robert Kardashian Sr.with soccer player-turned-animator Todd Waterman in 1989, and why she felt it was her “life’s biggest regret.”
The revelation occurred as the two were chatting about Khloé’s exTristan Thompsonand the Good American founder, 39, asked her mom, “What was your mindset when you cheated?” She added, “When you did that with my dad, and you had four kids and you had a family? Yes, I know you were really young….”
Kris calmly responded, explaining that “being really young and dumb is something that plays into it because you don’t really understand the consequences of your actions.”

Khloé still wasn’t fully understanding and asked her mom again, “But what was my dad not doing that made you want to look elsewhere?”
Kris then admitted, “I don’t know because he wassuch a great husbandandsuch a great dad, and I think that I fell into a situation where I thought that the grass was greener somewhere else, and I made a huge mistake. That’s my life’s biggest regret.”

Kris opened up further in a confessional interview, explaining why she hopes her daughter will think before completing cutting ties with Tristan, who’s the father of Khloé’s daughterTrue, 5, and sonTatum, 13 months.
“When I got divorced, Robert and I became best friends. We talked on phone all day long, helped each other through things all the time, and I did have regrets,” Kris explained. “I thought,Wow, what I was thinking?So I want Khloé to be really careful when she makes these decisions and she has to let somebody go.”
Back in their conversation, Kris told Khloé that while she may have regrets about cheating, she’s also pleased with how everything ultimately turned out.
