Kim Kardashian Reveals That Single Parenting Is the Hardest Thing
Every parent can agree that parenting isn’t easy, and it’s even harder if you’re single.
And it turns out that celebrities like Kim Kardashian can face similar struggles.
Kardashian recently opened up about her challenges, admitting that she often ‘cried herself to sleep’ while parenting alone.
Kim Kardashian Becomes a Single Mom
Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from ex-husband Kanye West in 2021, and their split was finalized a year later.
The couple have four children together: North, Chicago, Saint, and Psalm. Kardashian and her ex-husband have agreed on joint custody, but she still takes on the majority of the childcare.
Kim Kardashian raised 4 children alone.
Recently, the famous mother opened up about what it was like to raise 4 children alone. In an appearance, Kardashian revealed that raising children alone was the hardest thing.
Kim Kardashian confided: “Raising children is what has taught me the most about myself. It is the hardest thing. There are nights when I cry myself to sleep. There are days when I wonder what just happened? With 4 children with 4 different personalities, I always have to play both the gentle mother and the strict mother.”
Notably, Kim Kardashian’s life is always busy. She has to arrange her career as a media personality, a businesswoman and a single mother.
So it is understandable that she feels overwhelmed from time to time. Thankfully, her mother – Kris Jenner has always been there to support her daughter with her warm presence.
Kardashian says Jenner always made everyone feel “really heard and welcomed.” She made sure the family could spend time together by hosting get-togethers. That family spirit is something Kim Kardashian wants to pass on to her children.
Enjoy the rewarding experiences of motherhood
Despite the difficulties that come with motherhood, Kardashian has always emphasized that all the joy she has found comes from raising her children.
“You feel so proud of yourself when you figure out how to manage everything and get through the day. Being a mother is the most challenging and rewarding job on the planet,” she said, affirming that she loves being a mother more than any other job.
Kardashian also added that raising children is what has taught her the most about herself.
It goes without saying that motherhood is not an easy job, even for celebrities. Supermodel Ashley Graham is another famous woman who has bravely shared her struggles after becoming a mother.
She shared her postpartum journey with her fans on social media, attracting millions of supporters.
