At the microphone of the American podcast On purpose with Jay Shetty, Kim Kardashian, one of the main protagonists of the reality show The Kardashians, looks back on her life. The mother of North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm specifies having tried everything to save her marriage with rapper Kanye West, who is regularly at the heart of very controversial controversies. She therefore decided to end their relationship in January 2021. The divorce was pronounced in March 2022. She had to overcome harassment from her ex when she was in a relationship with comedian Pete Davidson.
In an article from Vogue US, the actress from season 12 of American Horror story confides: “For so long I did what made other people happy. And I think that for two years, I decided that I was going to make me happy. I chose myself”. A road that was not easy to take and for which she still suffers the consequences. It is therefore in this podcast that she decided to return to her divorce. The one who does not spread out the reasons for this end of relationship finally reveals what prompted her to leave the rapper who is now called Yé.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West don’t share the same values
In this podcast Kim Kardashian confides and talks about her marriage without bitterness. She says: “Sometimes I feel like people think that if a relationship doesn’t work it’s a failure, but I don’t see it like that: 15 years together, 10 years, that is not a failure. It is so beautiful”. She goes on to say that the main reasons for the divorce were differences of opinion and values. She explains, “It’s okay to have different points of view. That’s why the world turns. But if you don’t share the same values, the same morals and the same things, it’s okay to realize that life is so short and you have to go find the people who correspond to what you really believe in”. The two stars, who had found each other well, took diametrically different paths.
