Speaking to Khloe on the latest episode of The Kardashians, she told them:
"He walked out on SNL like mid-monologue, so I haven’t talked to him since. He’s upset at the fact that I said, “the reason I divorced him”, and used the word “divorced”… So he wished I said the word “filed” for divorce".
"He was upset that I also said he was a rapper. He said, “I’m so much more than a rapper, I can’t believe you said rapper" she continued.
"I sat there through so many speeches and things that haven't been the most comfortable for me. But that was my partner and I stood by him, I would never embarrass him and walk out".
