Kris Jenner thought her daughter Kim Kardashian was "going through a phase" when she married music producer Damon Thomas.

Kim, 31, secretly tied the knot with Thomas in 2000 when she was just 19 and while Kris knew her daughter was acting differently, she never thought Kim, who divorced Damon in 2004, would marry without telling her.

"Kim seemed to be going through a phase. At first I wasn't sure what was going on. She had started dating an older man named Damon and was acting really funny," femalefirst.co.uk quoted the 56-year-old as saying.

"(When I discovered they were married) I didn't like it but I realised I would have to learn to live with it. I had to see it through with her because I'm her mother. I had always told her that my job was to be there for her through thick and thin," she added.
