“Devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder!" We are sure you might have heard this being said about the famous momager who managed to catapult the family into one of the most recognized families in the world. On the latest episode of ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians’, we saw the downside of being so committed to work. Kris Jenner managed to bag a collaboration for Kylie Cosmetics with Balmain. So, as part of the deal, Kylie Jenner was supposed to be the art director for Balmain’s fashion show and close the show with Olivier Rousting of Balmain.

But unfortunately, at the very last minute, Kylie falls sick and isn’t able to make it to Paris where the Balmain show was scheduled to take place. When Kris gets the news of her billionaire daughter being rushed to the hospital for her strep throat, Kris immediately begins dreading about what she’ll say to Olivier and who would replace Kylie as art director for the show. She doesn’t even spare a thought for Kylie’s health, she instead dismisses her daughter’s health by saying that Kylie should have just popped some pills and got on the plane for the show.

It took the momager’s boyfriend Corey Gamble to remind her that right now she should focus on her daughter’s health and not stress about work commitments. Everything goes smoothly at the fashion show, much to Kris’s relief even without Kylie.
 
But fans were left feeling shocked and horrified when they saw Kris prioritizing work over her daughter’s health. A fan tweeted, “I can’t believe Kris said that. Health comes before work. If my daughter was sick I wouldn’t be like my daughter is sick she needs to get her butt on a plane ASAP cause it’s work and she has commitments and responsibilities. I  love kris but I just don’t agree what she said #KUWTK.” Another fan wrote, “It’s kind of sad seeing Kris being so dismissive of kylies illness ... I understand business but if you’re in the hospital you can’t just suck it up ... #KUWTK.”

“Kris seems more concerned about this silly event than her baby daughter's health! Cory is 100% right #KUWTK,” expressed a fan. “What the actual F***? Kris doesn’t even call Kylie to see if she’s okay?! She can’t “just do on the plane,” she’s going to the MFing hospital. #KUWTK,” pointed out a fan.

Fans slammed Kris for her greed. A fan shared, “Cory shouldn't even have to tell Kris this. Her motherly instinct should've immediately kicked in if her baby daughter is in the hospital. Now I see where Kim gets her 'work ethic' all-business snobbery from. No concern for Kylie from Kris, just obsession with $$$ #KUWTK.” Another fan echoed similar thoughts with, “#KUWTK There's something seriously wrong with @KrisJenner .. Her need for #greed & #money have superceded her role as a #parent &  #mother .. the fact that she is more concerned about @KylieJenner not attending the appearance speaks volumes.. #BeAF******Mother you greedy b***h!!”
 
‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ Season 18 airs Thursday nights at 8 pm ET on E!
