Watch: Khloe Kardashian Reflects on "Tough" Conversations With Scott Disick

The Kardashians is pulling back the curtain on Scott Disick's reaction to ex Kourtney Kardashian's engagement. 

In the May 5 episode, Scott reached out to Khloe Kardashian after learning about Travis Barker's romantic, beachside proposal to Kourtney in Montecito, Calif., and shared that while he'll "always love your sister"—who he dated for multiple years and shares 3 children with—he's happy for her and the Blink-182 rocker. 

"I wasn't that caught off guard. I thought that they'd already be married [from] the way that she was talking. It wasn't crazy," he told Khloe. "Thank God, because at another time in my life, if I'd heard that, life would've been over for me." 

In fact, Scott said that he felt "relief" that Kourtney had someone "taking care of her" going forward that wasn't him, calling her engagement "a good thing."

"I kind of, in a selfish way, feel like a lot has been lifted off of me," he said. "I couldn't do the job of being with her, so I salute Travis. He's in for a lot of work...Kourtney is not the simplest when it comes to everything."

However, Scott did share the one problem that he had with Kourtney's proposal: He was unhappy that their 3 children, Mason, 12, Penelope, 9, and Reign, 7, weren't present for the big moment, especially because Travis' kids—Landon, 18, and Alabama, 16—were invited.

During the show, Khloe explained that Kourtney's kids weren't invited because they were "too young."

"[The kids] didn't understand why they were watching TikToks of his kids there and they weren't there," Scott said. "Hopefully they're invited to the wedding…[Penelope] would've been ecstatic. We're acting like the place is 10 hours away." 

Penelope later broke down in tears after learning about her mom's engagement news over FaceTime. It's part of a larger worry that Scott shared about losing the family dynamic they once had.  

"I just don't want to be pushed out of family affairs that include the kids and things that we normally would do," he said. "I definitely think Kourtney and I need to speak about certain things that she doesn't really want to. We'll get there. We always do."  

In a separate confessional, Kourtney shared that while she finds Scott's acceptance of her relationship with Travis "important" for their children, he's not the only deciding factor when it comes to her future.  

"I'm sensitive to [Scott] and his feelings," she explained. "I communicate with him about the kids and I make sure that he's good, but beyond that, I just got engaged and I want to be happy and be in the moment. I just don't think that this moment is about Scott."
