HIDDEN HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Kris Jenner may be the ultimate momager, but even she isn't immune to designer drama, especially when it comes to the one time she may (or may not) have gifted her children fake Chanel.

In the March 20 episode of 'The Kardashians', the 69-year-old matriarch found herself in the hot seat when her daughter Kourtney Kardashian confronted her about a long-buried holiday surprise.

Kourtney Kardashian recalls Kris Jenner’s Chanel watch fiasco

While preparing for her mother’s 90th birthday over FaceTime with Kourtney Kardashian, Kris Jenner proudly showed off some Chanel scarf party favors, only for Kourtney, 45, to take a trip down memory lane and recall the other time Chanel made an unexpected appearance in their family.

"You said that they were stolen off of a truck," Kourtney teased according to People, before dropping an even wilder twist: "Kathie Lee Gifford told you that they were hot off a truck and that they were real."

In her confessional, Kourtney painted the complete picture of what went down. She said, "Year one of our show, my mom gave us all these Chanel, Chanel watches for Christmas. And they just slowly started chipping and the diamonds would fall out and we were like, mom, these watches, if these are real, that’s crazy. Then she’s like, I bought them from a truck."

She added that Kris had been so excited about the purchase, spending "five times" her $1,000 paycheck on a “hot watch.”

Kris Jenner addresses Chanel accessory mystery

The scene shifts to Kris Jenner's sit-down, where she admits she doesn't remember if the accessories were real or fake Chanel—or even if they were "hot" in the first place. However, when asked if she was "pleading the fifth," she said yes.

Kris has long moved past 'truck' watches, now boasting a designer wardrobe that’s as authentic as it is luxurious.

Her collection of high-end fashion rivals any archive, featuring standout pieces like a 'Devil Wears Prada'-era Chanel blazer from 2005.

And now that her children are the ones raking in millions, Kris has often been on the receiving end of their extravagant purchases.

Reportedly, last December, Kylie Jenner gifted her mother a custom $4,000 Goyard duffle bag, complete with hand-painted portraits of all of Kris' children.
