Kim Kardashian Suggests Kanye West Has Hit Rock Bottom

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West split in 2022 after eight years of marriage. In the months of the break up, Kanye has gone full “mask off”, making a variety of anti-Semitic comments and destroying his business relationship with Adidas.

Episode 2 of The Kardashians Season 3 is now live on Hulu. Following on from the season premiere, a major piece of the episode is Kim’s handling of post-Kanye life. In this, Kim makes some eye-opening remarks. In particular, the episode highlights the effort that Kim has gone to shield her four children from their father’s behavior.

“I don’t want to be part of this narrative and it’s like when is this ever gonna end? Like it never will and I’m stuck with this for the rest of my life,” Kim tells her mother in Season 3 Episode 2. “I still feel the need to not talk about it and protect it from my kids and I always will feel that way, but God, if people knew,” she continues. “I just would never do that to my kids. It just is really crazy.” Kris, in full matriarch mode, nods sagely and replies “that’s the tragic part of the whole story.” Furthermore, Kim reveals just how far she’s going to stop her kids seeing the media coverage of their father. “She actually doesn’t know and that’s what’s so crazy,” Kim said, referring to her daughter North.

"When stuff is said, it’s a chain to my whole household. No TV, only Apple TV. I can’t risk an Access Hollywood or anything on the news coming up with their dad mentioned and they want to watch. I have to figure out a way to protect and so they still haven’t seen anything, but then I go into crisis mode.” She continued. “Sometimes I feel like if he were to hit rock bottom, that’s his journey that he needs to figure out on his own. I used to run around and call everyone behind his back, and be like, ‘It’s gonna be OK, it’s gonna be OK, don’t worry. Just give him another chance.’ I used to spend hours and hours and hours of my day to be the clean-up crew. I just don’t have that energy.”
