Kim Kardashian Reflects on Single Life and the Challenges of Dating
Kim Kardashian recently opened up about her dating life, expressing her reservations about finding love nearly five years after her breakup with ex-husband Kanye West. During a confessional segment on the November 13 episode of her Hulu reality show, The Kardashians, she shared that being single has made her increasingly comfortable with the status quo. “You get really comfortable being single,” she explained, adding that the prospect of sharing her life with someone else has become less appealing as she has settled into her routines.
Kardashian’s reflections came during a heartfelt discussion with her co-star Sarah Paulson. Paulson noted that Kardashian appears to have developed a protective barrier around herself, particularly in her role as a mother to her four children: North (12), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (5). “Even think about the amount of times you’re trying to keep everything little and tight around your kids,” Paulson remarked, encouraging Kardashian to allow herself the opportunity for romance.
While Kardashian acknowledges the emotional wall she has built since her divorce, she emphasized that her focus remains on her family and career. “I know Sarah feels like I have put up this wall to overprotect myself so that I just may be don’t open up to love,” she said. “But it’s OK to close down a bit and focus on the things that I want in life.” Despite her current hesitations, Kardashian identifies as a “hopeless romantic,” indicating that she remains open to love when the right person comes along.
Kardashian’s dating history has garnered considerable media attention, especially given her past relationships with high-profile figures. Following her marriage to West, she briefly dated comedian Pete Davidson and was reportedly linked to retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady in early 2023. Sources confirmed to E! News that while they share mutual friends and business connections, they were not romantically involved. As of now, she is prioritizing her responsibilities as a mother and her ventures in law school, alongside her business endeavors.
The dynamics of the Kardashian-Jenner family continue to evolve. Kardashian’s sister Kourtney Kardashian and husband Travis Barker recently celebrated the birth of their first child together, while their relationship has also been spotlighted for its romantic gestures, such as an extravagant birthday surprise featuring rose petals and a significant art gift.
In a separate segment, their mother, Kris Jenner, has also been navigating her own romantic life with long-time partner Corey Gamble. Jenner’s relationship has been characterized by moments of affection and support since they began dating in 2014.
As the Kardashian family continues to share their lives on screen, fans can witness how each member approaches love and relationships. New episodes of The Kardashians are available each Thursday on Hulu, promising more insights into their personal and professional journeys.
