Kris Jennerwas in full support ofKim Kardashian’s relationship withPete Davidson— even if things didn’t pan out between the pair.
Prior totheir split in August, Kris was totally in favor of her daughter dating the 28-year-old comedian, and had no qualms about sharing that on Thursday’s episode ofThe Kardashians.
While chatting with her family about Pete’s anticipated trip to space — a trip that he ultimately didnot go on due to a scheduling conflictafter the blast-off date was changed — Kim, 41, received a phone call from the formerSaturday Night Livestar.
Kris, 66, went on to ask Pete several questions about the trip, including whether or not he was nervous and if he had a will in place, should something go wrong. Pete played along, joking around with Kim’s family, which included her sisterKhloé Kardashianand grandmotherMary Jo “MJ” Shannon.
As the group laughed, Kris opened up about her daughter’s then-boyfriend and the impact he’s had on her in a confessional.
“Pete is amazing. No drama, no stress, he’s just Pete,” she said. “[He] fits in with the family. I think Kim is happy, she laughs, she’s more confident, Pete brings out the best in her.”

Kim and Pete first sparked romance rumors when they kissed during a sketch on herSNLhosting debut last October. Later that month, they were photographedholding hands on a roller coasterat Knott’s Berry Farm.
Pete formallyconfirmed his relationshipwith Kim to PEOPLE in February, calling her his “girlfriend.”
By August, the couple had parted ways. “Part of the reason they split was because of their busy schedules,” an insider told PEOPLE at the time. “They both travel all the time and it was hard.”
Despite their breakup, the SKIMS founder still holds a special place in her own heart for theMeet Cutestar. Last month, in a conversation withInterview Magazine, Kim called Pete “a cutie.”
She also opened up aboutwhy he dates “hot girls"in last week’s episode ofThe Kardashians. (Prior to dating Kim, Pete had been linked toAriana Grande,Margaret Qualley,Kate BeckinsaleandKaia Gerber, among others.)
“Pete has the best heart,” she said during a confessional in the episode. “I feel like people, they have this, like, idea of him that he dates all these hot girls. And he does. But he’s just the sweetest, most thoughtful person.”

During that same conversation with her family in this week’s episode, Kim revealed that she and Pete had sex in front of a fireplace, as per her Grandma MJ’s suggestion.
“You know what’s so crazy?” she asked her grandmother. “Pete and I were staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel last weekend and we were sitting in front of the fireplace, just talking for hours, and I was like, ‘My grandma told me that you really live life when you have sex in front of the fireplace,’ and so we had sex in front of the fireplace in honor of you.”
