Kris Jenner takes credit for Kanye’s proposal

Kayne West and soon-to-be mother-in-law Kris Jenner.

The Kardashian matriarch says she played a “major role” in organising Kayne West’s proposal to her daughter Kim

Kris Jenner has declared she was “directly involved” in putting together the huge event that resulted in the engagement of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.

The statement was made in the lead-up to the court case the family has filed against YouTube co-founder Chad Hurley, who leaked footage of the lavish proposal – including orchestra, champagne and fireworks – at At&T Park in San Fransisco last year.

Kris says she was the one who got all the family members together and “played a major role in organising and running the event”, a court declaration states.

“As part of this, I was directly involved in formulating and was familiar with the guest list … He (Chad) was not even invited to attend; Kim and Kanye did not know him.”

It is believed that Chad showed up to the event with an invited guest and later leaked the footage which was meant to be an exclusive for a double episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, leading to the lawsuit.

A hearing has been set for March 18.
