Exclusive:Kim Kardashian Once Said Kanye West Kept Harassing Her to Have More Kids
Although she grew up in a household with a large family, Kim Kardashian was reluctant to have more kids herself.
Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye West had a full household after having four children together. Kardashian felt that was a good cut off point for their family, but West wouldn’t have been happy unless they expanded their brood.
Kardashian felt the two daughters and two sons she had with ex-husband West were enough to complete their family. There were a few factors she took into consideration when making this decision. Maybe the most important factor of all was that she wasn’t sure she could divide her attention equally enough to focus on more kids. Another factor was her age.
“I just can’t do more because I really want to go to school and I want to do all this stuff and I do believe that – I could do two more, but I just don’t think I should. I’d have to go through IVF and I’m nearly 40 and I don’t want to be an old mom,” she said on the All’ s Fair podcast (via Contact Music). “That’s the thing. I want to pay attention. I think everyone needs attention. And I think just seeing how my mom is 64, we still don’t stop bugging her. At 40, I call her on the daily, all day long.”
West was the exact opposite of Kardashian, stating at one point he wanted seven kids.
“Kanye wants to have more [kids]. He’s been harassing me. He’s stuck on seven. I could never, especially in the world we live in. It literally keeps me up at night, thinking about how my kids will survive in a crazy world like this,” she said.
The pair’s stance on kids was very ironic considering their own upbringing. Kardashian didn’t want to have more kids despite being raised in a family with siblings and half-siblings. Meanwhile, West was an only child.
