Amid allegations that Kanye West is «not around very much» for children, Kim Kardashian discusses the «sad part about motherhood»
In a brief social media message on Saturday, Kim Kardashian appeared to be reflecting on the pleasure and suffering of parenthood.
The 44-year-old influencer posted an emotional comment on her Instagram Stories, claiming to be a fan of Emily Austen’s book Smarter: 10 Lessons for a More Productive and Less-stressed Life.
«The sad part of motherhood is that you’re raising the one person you can’t live without… to be able to live without you,» the mother-of-four wrote in a heartfelt remark.
Kardashian did not give credit for the quotation.
The inventor of Skims is a single mother of Psalm, age five, Chicago, who will celebrate her seventh birthday in December, North, age eleven, and Saint, who will be nine in December.
She and her 47-year-old ex-husband Kanye West share children.
Her heartfelt Instagram post follows a source’s assertion that Kim is «pretty much a single mom» since «Kanye is sadly not around very much» for the kids.
«Even with assistance, she still has a lot of work to do to balance and organize everything,» the insider continued.
Kim’s life revolves on her children’s routines, according to the insider. She works when they are at school. She is totally focused on becoming a mother when they are not around.
Because her life is «all about work and the kids,» the insider revealed that Kim «is not even dating anyone now.»
The reality star discussed the challenges of being a single parent in an interview with Jay Shetty for his On Purpose podcast in May 2023.
Having a chef and nannies to assist with cooking is obviously quite beneficial. However, your children ultimately want you, she clarified.
«I have a lot of help, but that really has nothing to do with the struggles my kids face,» she added.
On certain evenings, I sob myself to sleep. «Like, what just happened?» she said, acknowledging a problem that many single parents encounter.
The individual said, «It’s (up to) me to play good cop and bad cop because of all the moods and personalities and sometimes they’re fighting and you know, there’s no one there.»
The creator of SKKN BY KIM appears to have inherited her resilience from her mother, Kris Jenner, 69, who had six children but was mostly married to either Kim’s late father, Robert Kardashian, or her 75-year-old ex-wife, Caitlyn Jenner.
