In a recent episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian found herself navigating the tricky waters of parenting, particularly when it comes to her daughter North.
The 10-year-old made waves by revealing some candid remarks about her mom’s feelings towards Kendall Jenner’s Met Gala outfit.
This incident turned into a teachable moment for Kim, who emphasized the importance of loyalty within their family.
After the glitz and glamour of the 2023 Met Gala, Kim relaxed at home with her family when North casually mentioned that she had told Kendall, 28, that her mom wasn’t fond of the outfit she wore.
Kendall had opted for a striking black bodysuit paired with bold platform boots that night.
This revelation reached Kendall through a conversation with her sister Kylie, who relayed North’s comments: “She told me she did not like your look.”
As the story unfolded, it became clear that Kendall had initially been torn between two outfits for the event.
Interestingly, Kim had favored the look that Kendall ultimately decided against, which only added fuel to the fire of North’s candidness.
In a heartfelt moment, Kim reminded her daughter, “There’s a thing about honesty and there’s a thing about having your mom’s back.”
North’s penchant for truth-telling didn’t stop there.
During a fitting for Kim’s upcoming dress, she bluntly critiqued the pearls on the outfit, likening them to something you’d find at a dollar store.
It seems that North is unfiltered when it comes to fashion advice, as Kim noted, “North can be critical.”
The episode showcased North’s honest opinions about various Met Gala looks, including her take on Kim’s past outfits.
She expressed her approval of Kim’s dazzling Mugler dress from 2019 while offering a scathing review of the 2021 Balenciaga ensemble, saying it looked like “you’re getting covered by a plastic bag and you can’t see.”
Later in the episode, North and her cousin Penelope Disick, 11, took to critiquing other celebrities’ red carpet choices.
They deemed Jared Leto’s Cupid costume as “cringe” and even called out Pete Davidson for his outfit choice, quipping, “You’re going to the Met Gala, Pete, not the gas station.”
In a reflective moment, Kim shared her thoughts on teaching North about kindness in criticism.
She expressed her desire to instill in her daughter that it’s unnecessary to tear others down without reason.
“There’s a way to soften it up and not hurt people’s feelings,” she advised, highlighting the fine line between honesty and harshness.
In a nostalgic twist, Kim reminisced about a time when North was just a baby and met none other than Rihanna.
Kim recounted how North wasn’t particularly thrilled about being held by the pop icon, but Rihanna assured her, “You’re gonna love me one day, girl.”
Switching gears, the episode also delved into the Kardashian sisters’ differing parenting styles.
Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe shared a FaceTime chat where they discussed their experiences as mothers.
Kourtney, who recently welcomed her fourth child, was multitasking during the call, balancing family time with breastfeeding her newborn, Rocky.
Kim, reflecting on Kourtney’s new addition, remarked, “Kourtney loves being a mom.
For times a mom is the best.” Khloe chimed in, expressing her happiness for Kourtney, emphasizing that this new chapter is everything she has long desired.
As the episode wrapped up, viewers were left with a glimpse into the dynamic relationships within the Kardashian family, showcasing both the challenges and joys of motherhood.
Through moments of honesty, laughter, and reflection, Kim Kardashian continues to navigate the complexities of raising her children in the public eye.
