Kardashian’s latest addiction came after the reality staropened up about her struggles with conceiving.
During the March 2021 premiere episode ofKUWTK’s final season, Kardashian shared that doctors informed her she would have a “high-risk” pregnancy if she chose to carry her own second child.
“I’m not gonna get into specifics on-camera,” she said in the episode, “but they said it’s like an 80-something percent chance that I will miscarry. I almost miscarried with True at the beginning. But I didn’t know that was like a lingering thing.”
“This is all really shocking to me,” Kardashian added in her confessional. “All I’m trying to do is bring more love into my life and into my family, and I just seem to be running into more and more roadblocks. It’s really hard for me to digest.”
Off the show, Kardashian opened up about family planning on a March 2021 installment ofLady Parts with Sarah Hyland, explaining that thepandemic interfered with her plansto have another child sooner.
“… If you do need assistance in fertility, it’s much more challenging during COVID,” the star said. “They say, ‘If you wanna make God laugh, tell him your plans.’ So the one time I’m actually really trying to plan, God is saying, ‘Uh uh, you can’t make your plans like this!’ "
“My plan was to have kids closer in age,” continued the reality star. “But with COVID and everything, my plan’s been a little delayed. I definitely do want more kids. I have so many brothers and sisters. I think it’s such a blessing — especially during these times — to have a family member or people that you can play with and rely on and just have a buddy through life.”
