The highly anticipated season 3 of The Kardashians has premiered, offering fans a glimpse into the drama-filled lives of the famous family. The new season delves into the tumultuous period when Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye West engaged in a public feud on Instagram. The episode sheds light on the emotional toll the attacks have taken on Kim, with the reality star breaking down in tears and expressing her frustration with Kanye’s behaviour.

In a tearful moment, Kim candidly confesses, “All his shenanigans — I don’t even know what the hell to call them — are going to be far more harmful to the kids one day than my bond ever will be.” She expresses the heartbreaking reality that she has to keep quiet to protect her children, saying, “I have to sit here and never say anything because I know one day, my children will appreciate it.” The toll of Kanye’s actions is clear as Kim reveals, “The one who was supposed to protect me — and still does interviews saying they’ll be my eternal protector — is the one who hurts me the most. I’m fucking exhausted. “

Non-stop attacks and accusations

Kanye West targeted Kim Kardashian and her then-boyfriend Pete Davidson in a series of now-deleted Instagram posts. The rapper criticized Kim’s parenting style, accusing her of playing games with their children. Addressing the relentless nature of the attacks, Kim said, “Even through all the craziness of everything Kanye says about us, I never comment. I never post.” The feud escalated as Kanye involved their four children, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm, in the public feud. He further escalated the conflict by targeting Pete with hateful comments and releasing a disturbing music video depicting violence towards him.

Leaked texts and personal attacks

As the feud escalated, Kanye leaked private text messages between him and Kim, further adding to the turmoil. In the leaked texts, Kanye confirmed his desire to control their children’s upbringing, disregarding Kim’s input due to her biracial heritage. Revealing her frustration, Kim said: “I think at this point I just assume that everything I send Kanye is going to be put on the internet.” Kanye’s disparaging comments about Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner, alleging her involvement in encouraging explicit content added another layer of distress. Kim opened up about her grief for her mother, saying, “I’m really sad for my mom — that she has to deal with so much.”

Kim’s silent struggle and emotional toll

During the previous season, Kim chose to remain silent in response to Kanye’s attacks, putting her children’s well-being first. The toll it has taken on her mental health becomes clear as she reveals she has been experiencing anxiety attacks and a flare-up of her psoriasis – a condition made worse by stress. In a moment of frustration, Kim says: “The one who was supposed to protect me – and still gives interviews saying they will be my eternal protector – is the one who hurts me the most.” Despite the exhaustion she feels, Kim demonstrates her commitment to her children, and expresses her willingness to answer any questions they may have in the future.

The premiere episode of The Kardashians Season 3 offers a look at Kim Kardashian’s emotional struggle in the face of Kanye West’s hurtful behavior. Kim’s tears and candid revelations highlight the immense pressure she faced to remain silent for the sake of their children. She expresses concern about the long-term impact of Kanye’s actions on their children and emphasizes the importance of protecting them.
