Kris Jenner Is ‘Always Hopeful’ That Kourtney Kardashian And Scott Disick Will Reconcile

Even though they split this summer after their third child was born, Kris Jenner is “always hopeful” that her daughter, Kourtney Kardashian, and her ex-partner, Scott Disick, will be able to work on their issues and reconcile.

"Scott is like my son," Kris said to Billy Bush of Access Hollywood. "He came over yesterday. He was on his way over to see the kids. He's a great dad. They've got things to figure out."

Kourtney, 36, and Scott, 32, were together for nine years and are parents to Mason, Penelope, and Reign. The breakup was thought to be sparked when Scott was caught in pictures, partying in the South of France, with his former girlfriend Chloe Bartoli. But Scott has had a long history of drinking and anger problems, which has caused many fights between the two.

"Do you tell Kourtney to forgive whatever he may have done?" Billy asked Kris.

Billy pressed Kris about whether or not she thinks Scott has substance abuse problems. She said, "You know what; I don't see that side, so I don't want to talk about what I don't know. I just know that, you know, they'll figure it out. He's a great dad and he loves the kids and he loves Kourtney."
