‘As a mother of 4 myself, and a single mom at that, she is speaking from legit experience! She may be extremely successful, and nanny’s…but what she speaks about with 4 kids and one mama….is SPOT ON! No one understands that if you don’t have multiple kids.’ one woman wrote.
‘Being a single mom is hard. I cannot imagine also being in the public eye, constantly being judged and criticized for every aspect of living life,’ another added.
‘I can’t imagine being a single mom of 4 with millions watching and ready to criticize every move! Made me respect so much more! ❤️ ‘ yet another fan commented.
When the TV personality was asked by the host what her ‘vision’ of parenting was like in the past before kids versus ‘what is actually is’ she expressed, ‘Everyone says the days are long and the years are short, and that couldn’t be like a more true statement.’
She continued, ‘So, like, when you’re in it, I mean, especially when they’re babies and you’re feeding and there’s madness going on. It’s like full madness. It’s the best chaos though.’
‘Like, my mornings, you have no idea what is going on,’ Kim explained. ‘It’s like I always have to do one of my daughter’s hair, and it has to be perfect and it has to be a certain way.’
‘And then this one needs me to put his shoes on and they all need you. It’s like full crazy madness, cooking, running around. Like, it’s wild. That’s why I need my workout in the morning, just to like, prepare for the two hours of craziness.’
The media personality then reflected on parenthood and told Jay, ‘I’d say parenting is the thing that has taught me the most about myself.’
‘It has been the most challenging thing. There are nights I cry myself to sleep. Like, holy sнιт, this f*****g tornado in my house. Like, what just happened?’
‘You know, with all the moods and the personalities and sometimes they’re fighting, and you know, there’s no one there. Like, it’s [just] me to play good police officer and bad cop,’ she admitted, adding that she was ‘working on being a little bit firmer.’
Kim continued to open up candidly and admitted to Jay that, ‘There’s nothing that can prepare you. Anyone, any person that says, “Oh, we’re waiting to have ‘x’ amount of money in the bank” or “Oh, we’re waiting to have a home before we have kids”…you are never prepared.’
However, despite the challenges when it comes to parenting, the star positively stated, ‘You will figure it out. And it will make you so proud of yourself-that you figured it out and that you got through the day.’
While the mother of four admitted to the hardships that raising a family could bring, she also revealed how rewarding it can be. ‘It teaches you so much more about yourself than I think anyone, any parent, could have ever anticipated.’
Kim’s marriage to Kanye came to an end in February of 2021, before their divorce was finalized in November of 2022.
