“Thisis the next chapter,” she said during the Disney Upfronts event. “In the new show, you’ll see us evolving as a family. Fans want us to be who we are, and since moment one, they’ve been emotionally invested in our show, just like we are. The fans will love seeing us continue the journey. I can’t say much about what’s coming, but spoiler, we’re going to look fabulous and everyone’s going to watch.”
Here’s everything we know about the upcoming show so far, from when it will premiere to which members of the Kardashian-Jenner family will be featured.

“Since this is Kourtney’s first engagement, it’s of course a big deal,” the source said. “Most of her family was there to celebrate. Two ofTravis' kids were there too. They enjoyed a private, family dinner at the hotel.”
“It was a beautiful celebration,” added the source. “Everyone is very happy for them.”
