Kris Jenner didn't seem impressed when Kim Kardashian shared some "very important news" on the latest episode of The Kardashians, though things weren't as they seemed.

This week's episode of the reality TV show saw Kim make an announcement to some of her family, whilst at a gathering that included her mother Kris, 67, and three of her siblings.

Kim said she'd been asked to do The Bachelorette, which follows a bachelorette who dates suitors in a bid to find a partner, with a proposal typically at the end of each season.

She said that a executive at Walt Disney Television had approached her about it, telling Kris: "I was gonna connect them with you once I decided if I was gonna do it or not".

Kourtney Kardashian, 44, and Khloé Kardashian, 39, didn't seem convinced though, and Kris seemed unimpressed over the possibility of Kim doing the ABC reality show.

Sharing her thoughts, Kris said in a confessional: "Nope, not happening. I'm your momager, manager, mother [...] I'll put any hat on that you want but you're not doing this".

Khloé commented at the gathering following Kim's remarks: "You're gonna be stuck in a house with twenty strange men that you have to make out with. Are you okay?"

Kim - who previously appeared alongside her family on Keeping Up with the Kardashians - told her family: You guys, I've thought this through and I thought it was so much fun."

Kris was seen on the phone to Disney executive Rob Mills, who reiterated what Kim had told the family. Kris was subsequently seen asking about the budget for her daughter.

"I just need to wrap my head around something like this because this isn't exactly the space I saw Kim in," she said after Rob suggested negotiations would happen.

Kris - who shared that she is a fan of The Bachelorette herself - commented in a confessional that whilst she "loves" the show, doesn't want her daughter to take part in it.

Kim however later revealed that it had been a prank, adding that she had some help in attempting to trick her family into believing that she would do The Bachelorette. She confirmed to the group during the episode: "I'm kidding. It was a prank".

Kris said in a confessional: "These kids love a good prank and I'm always the victim. I'm always the subject of the prank. For them to go this far ... oh my god! And why don't I see these coming?"

The Kardashians returned for its third season in May, with new episodes being released weekly on streaming service Hulu in the US and through DisneyPlus in the UK.
