Khloe Kardashian is facing backlash once again for her comments on parenting. On a recent episode of The Kardashians, the Good American co-founder said that she feels “exhausted” taking care of her kids without a live-in nanny.
During the episode, the 39-year-old mom opened up to her sister Kourtney about the struggles of handling nighttime duties alone. She talked about doing everything for her two children by herself, especially at night, since she doesn’t have night nannies or a partner to help out. In a confessional, Khloé admitted that “being a parent is hard”.
“Every day after 8:30, when True’s asleep, I am, like, crawling,” Khloe said. “Like I’m Leonardo DiCaprio out of Wolf of Wall Street to my bed, like, how do I get there? Then you wake up again and you do it all.”
She continued, “And make the lunches. And I started with the cookie-cutter hearts, for the watermelon. Like, once you start the cute s— that you’re so excited to do, God forbid, you don’t. But it’s amazing. Like at the same time, it’s like all you want. It’s the weirdest thing. Because you’re exhausted and you’re like I’m I’m gonna die and then literally when they’re asleep by 10, I’m like I miss them. Like get it together Khloe, snap out of it.”
KKhloé also mentioned that she might need to rethink her decision to not have a night nanny
“… I don’t have nannies at night, which I might have to change or at least have someone be available sometimes.”
The internet didn’t take too well to Khloe’s statements. And, they expressed their opinions loudly.
“Welcome to the real world,” one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, “But she has a nanny all day ….something most moms don’t have the luxury of.”
“Try that without any help plus a full-time job,” one user added.
This is not the first time that any of the Kardashians have met with backlash over attempting to present themselves as “normal” single parents. For many, the the juxtaposition of their luxury lifestyles vs. the daily grind of many who are barely making ends meet for themselves and their children, just doesn’t quite sit right with the masses.
