Kris Jenner is starting to feel her age.
The reality star maven took a trip to an orthopedic surgeon on the latest episode of her family’s reality show “The Kardashians.” Jenner told the physician she “literally couldn’t walk” without a cane the week before.
“I’m finally biting the bullet. I’m here to see the doctor because I have this excruciating hip pain,” she said in the episode. “I got an extensive set of x-rays, I had an MRI, I had a CT scan, and everything else.”
“The pain that I’ve been feeling seems to be getting in the way of my life and that is not something that I can really tolerate or have the patience for,” Jenner went on. “I have this beautiful, fabulous life and I have so many kids and grandkids that I want to share it with. All I want to do is fix the problem and move on I can the best, longest life possible.”
Jenner received her test results with boyfriend Corey Gamble by her side. She was told she would need a hip replacement as soon as possible. The news hit Jenner hard as she confronted getting older and even had a laugh at the prospect of using a walker during recovery.

“Hearing the doctor say that I need a hip replacement is very scary for me,” she said. “It reminds me of somebody older than I feel on the inside and somebody who is going to have challenges for the rest of her life. This is serious.”
Then emotions set in..”It’s just a mindf***,” she said before tears came. “You just realize you don’t have that much more time. It’s like suddenly, I can’t do all the things… My hip goes out, my knee is torn. I have an eye infection, I can’t see. I have the TV up too loud and Corey says I can’t hear. It’s like I feel like Humpty Dumpty.”
Daughter Kim Kardashian commented about her mother, “her mental isn’t aligning with her body.”
Khloe Kardashian also offered up thoughts on her mother’s diagnosis saying, “We’re good we got this. These women are fighters. My mom’s not going anywhere.”
