The 62-year-old reality star called into the Kyle and Jackie O show and was asked about Tammy.
“I hope she’s okay. I actually left before any of that happened because I typically go to bed at nine o’clock so it was way past my bedtime. I’m not sure [what happened], I still don’t know, I asked several people… I’m so happy she was okay… I honestly didn’t know who it was when she got stretchered out,” Kris said.
