We've waited, and they've returned! The Kardashians are finally back with the fifth season of their Hulu series. If you haven't watched the premiere episode, click the play button before reading this article because it might contain spoilers.

The family is busier than ever, and as always, Kris Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian Barker, Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner are unpacking it all right away with the premiere. 

The family immediately kicks off the episode, and they dive into Kourtney's high-risk pregnancy. In a conversation with her closest circle, Kourtney shares details about the emergency fetal surgery she experienced with her most recent family addition, Rocky, with her husband, Travis Barker. In September, Kourtney took to Instagram and shared the emotional toll of her emergency surgery.

“As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear,” she wrote. “I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant.”

While this traumatic experience was highlighted in the episode, viewers also experienced Kris's in-depth Disneyland-themed baby shower at her home in Calabasas. In the episode, viewers get a glimpse of the magical scenery and the confirmation that Kourtney and Travis both tested positive for COVID. While the couple distanced away from everyone during the shower, they were still allowed to experience and enjoy the special occasion.

The episode also provided a final confirmation of Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson's relationship. As they share a daughter, throughout the premiere, Khloe is vocal about them not getting back together. We also get a glimpse into Kim Kardashian's busy schedule! Not wanting to slow down anytime soon, Kim's in her element as she continues to travel to meetings after meetings, practice her role in American Horror Story, and, of course, her kids. As the episode wraps, Kris, Kim, and Kylie head to Paris Fashion Week to watch Kendall walk the runway. 
 
The premiere episode didn't speak a beat on the drama and the inside look at their exciting life. With the upcoming season preview, we're given a glimpse of the drama, the welcoming of the new baby, and a special meet-up between Kim and Gypsy Rose Blanchard
