During Thursday's (18.03.21) premiere of season 20 of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians', the 37-year-old reality star claimed that the reason for his split from the 22-year-old model last year, after almost three years of dating, was because she made him choose between her and the mother of his three kids.

Scott - who has Mason, 11, Penelope, eight, and Reign, six, with Kourtney - told Khloe Kardashian and Kim Kardashian West: "I thought I would give it a try and make her more of a priority, but then even when doing that, she was like, 'I don't wanna share you as a boyfriend with Kourtney.

"Instead of just wanting to work with it, she literally said, with an ultimatum: 'You have to choose, me or Kourtney.'

"And I was like, but Kourtney is Kourtney and my kids. It's a unit. I said, 'How could you even want that for me?' It just became an impossible relationship to keep carrying on with."

Kim - who has recently filed for divorce from estranged husband Kanye West - replied: "Sometimes it's time just to cut the cord. I get it."

Scott insisted that no romantic partner would ever get between his co-parenting with Kourtney, 41.

He added: "I'm never going to give up my relationship with Kourtney and the co-parenting that we have. Nothing in a million years will be worth what we have.

"And I truly believe if the right person were to come along in Kourtney's life or my life, us having children and having this amazing relationship would only be a plus to the outsider."

Since the season premiere was filmed, Scott has embarked on a romance with 19-year-old model Amelia Hamlin, who he went Instagram official with last month, while Kourtney is dating Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker.
