"All I want is for those two kids to be happy. That's the goal," she went on. "I think we all want that for our families, just to be able to have the love and appreciation of one another, and that everyone's OK. That's what you want as a mom."

"I don't know what they have decided on in the finale. We haven't even seen the first show yet," she said, noting that the first episode of the final season premieres Friday. "I'm sure they're putting some final touches."

But, she insisted, "I think it's just a private time for them. Kim wanted to deal with this with her own family in her own time. When she feels like it, I'm sure she'll say what she needs to say."
