“ I was literally hiding in a bathroom with the doorway locked … I ’m open to anything at this point because I ca n’t live like this . ”
Kim Kardashiangot brutally honest about the difficulties of single motherhood after her divorce from Kanye West.
As I’m sure you’ll know, in the decade they were together, Kim and Ye welcomed four children: North, 10, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5. And since their 2021 split, Kim has been vocal about taking onthe brunt of parenting dutiesas they navigate life as coparents.
After theaftermath of Kimye’s split, coparenting was a major source of contention between the exes. Since then, Kim has talked openly about balancing her busy schedule with thedemands of motherhood.
In the latest episode ofThe Kardashians, the Skims founder opens up about reaching a breaking point without the “support” she needs.
Throughout the episode, Kim emphasizes that she struggles to setfirm boundarieswith her kids, saying: “I don’t know why I don’t have it in me to be super strict.”
During a phone call on her way to jury duty, Kim vents to a friend about her “troubling week” with the kids, confessing that she locked herself in the bathroom to escape them while attempting to complete an interview.
Admitting that it “sucks” that she doesn’t have “support,” Kim circles back to her struggles with strictness. Presumably referring to North, she tells her friend: “I took her phone, and after a day, I gave it to her. I’m such a pushover. But I took it for 24 hours.”
In her confessional, Kim doubles down on how Khloé can implement strict boundaries as a mom to her two kids, 6-year-old True and 1-year-old Tatum, who she shares withTristan Thompson.
Last season, Kim was forced to acknowledge the assistance she receives fromnannies and chefsin her home after facing backlash for saying on Jay Shetty’s podcast that she raises her kids “with no one there” to help.
The Kardashianscan be streamed on Hulu in the US andDisney+ internationally. The next episode will be available on June 13.
