Kris Jenner Says Kim "Did Not Make A Dime" Off Her Wedding

Kris Jenner gave an interview to radio station Star 101.3 Tuesday morning -- though the hosts were surprised she came through.

Morning host Don Bleu told Jenner he thought she'd back out after news broke that her daughter, Kim, had filed for divorce Monday. But Jenner said she sticks to her professional commitments ... especially when it comes to promoting her new autobiography, out Tuesday.

So, Jenner addressed the Kardashian elephant in the room -- the divorce. She said:

"You get married because you think it's going to be happily ever after, not because, 'Oh, I'll do this for a while.' That's just not what my children would do in a million years. ... It's not embarrassing. It's sad. ... She's not the first person in the world to get a divorce. Things don't work out all the time. ... They're very sad about it. ... I just have to be there for my kids, through thick and through thin."

Jenner also addressed Kim's $20 million wedding to Kris:

"The rumors that Kim made five cents off of the wedding are absolutely false. She did not make a dime ... she actually spent millions of dollars of her own money. ... All that matters to me is that you're a good person, you're honest and you're true to yourself. There's a lot of things that are much more important than Hollywood, but this is the business we're in."

Kris spoke more about whether Kim paid for her wedding to Humphries, and chatted about how Kim left Monday night for Australia to promote her handbag line. At the airport, Kim was not wearing her wedding ring (through Kris Humphries was spotted wearing his in Minnesota on Monday.)

From Kris:

"I saw those checks. ... She spent a lot more money on the wedding than she got paid to shoot a show ... by 20 million times. [She made] absolutely nothing. ... It's like when people tell you how much money you made that year. It's like, 'Really? Did you do my taxes?' It's ridiculous."

Listen to the interview:

"My only concern is getting Kim through this. ... We all try to be very professional ... Kim is on the road fulfilling the professional commitment she made before all of this happened, and I really commend her for doing that ... she's very, very sad. We're all just trying to get her through this, and hope that in a few months everything will be back to normal, she'll be fine and we'll move on."
