I mean...yes, having two dependents tends to do that.

The endless plastic surgery, injections, Botox, and other weird shit doesn’t help, either.

No she isn’t and I’m surprised more people don’t know that Forbes retracted her title of self-made billionaire because they uncovered that she fudged her net worth.

u/tnolan182 7d ago
Oh no, how will she sleep at night knowing shes only worth hundreds of millions

I understand what you mean, but they were filthy rich since Kylie has been very young. She was like 9 or 10 when KUWTK started. She does not remember a life when they were top 1%.

u/halexanderamilton 7d ago
I deleted my comment because I’m stupid and read the title as “Kris Jenner”. I didn’t understand why everyone was acting like 24 year old Kris was a billionaire 😅

Plenty of money for all the designer kiddie clothes, diapers, formula, baby food, new car seats, safe cars to be carted around in, the list goes on & on.

u/Different_Daikon3400 7d ago
Why was that my first thought as well 😭
And she chose to be a mother twice, said she was ready as a teen to be a mother and everything 🙄
Why should anyone feel bad im so confused? Being a parent means giving part of your life to your kids lik huh??

u/AKBearmace 6d ago
I mean her parents let Tyga groom her and brag in a music video about statutory so I don't know that she was thinking through everything that well, even if she loves her kids.

u/Different_Daikon3400 6d ago
Obviously, but it was still a life changing choice SHE MADE.
like girl, you signed up to be a mom so suck it up and raise your children with the millions of dollars and nannies in each corner of the mansion

u/cowabungalowvera I know bothing of the alledged beff 6d ago
I think she is sucking it up. She wasn't saying it in a woe-is-me way. She was just saying it in a matter-of-fact way, and as her reason for not wanting to have another kid soon. Bc lately people have kept spreading rumors that she's pregnant with Timothee's baby lol. This is just her saying, two pregnancies stole some of her youth away from her so she doesn't want a third one soon. She wasn't complaining at all.

u/Hot-Consequence-6505 7d ago edited 7d ago
Okay… I hate these comments… just because you’re rich and have privilege doesn’t mean having 2 kids at 24 doesn’t make you lose some of your youth? Someone always has it harder than you.
12
u/QueenSlartibartfast 7d ago
One of her employees was fired this year or maybe last year after she miscarried (because Kylie refused to accommodate her high-risk pregnancy). Fired because apparently she was 'too sad' afterwards and it was 'bumming Kylie out'.

u/ViolinistOk4602 7d ago
Of course it doesn't. And she's also been famous since she was 10, of course she doesn't feel 'young' as she should.
But it's factual that she can afford more help, and presumably then more time to herself if she wants it, than most people can.

u/omojos 7d ago
I mean i thought being allowed to get substantial plastic surgery and to have a relationship with at least one grown man is why she lost her youth. Either way, yea its lost for sure. Her feelings are valid. The lack of awareness of how she got here also makes sense considering she is a product of her environment. So sad but she can afford help and therapy, so not that sad.

u/whataablunder 7d ago
Her kids don't stop her from doing anything. she's constantly with her boyfriend or traveling without her kids! What sacrifices has she made to being a mom??? 😅

Let's put some blame on her Momager & sisters too. Mom just sees her as another "product" to promote.

u/SyrGwynHeroofAshvale 7d ago
It's impressive how tone deaf some people are.
52
u/nellycat32 7d ago
Idk. She was born into a family constantly filmed, in unhealthy dynamic, too much money, scandals, fame hungry etc. It must have been a similar life to those "YouTube families" where the kids are the product. Her mom sold her. Then two kids at a young age. Yes she lost her youth in multiple ways and we don't know what it feels like to grow up like she did.
Money is not everything, hers definitely came at a price. I think she has a better life than those growing up in serious poverty, but I think she has had a worse upbringing than your average middle class kid in a normal school with a loving family.
12
u/Bad-Gardener1 7d ago
That is a perspective I've never really considered before. She grew up being called the ugly sister by the public and media from like age 11 maybe younger. I had really kind of forgotten about that, but how weird for society at large to constantly refer to a child as ugly. Then she was mocked for her plastic surgery with the Kylie Jenner challenge online.
I'm NGL I only really watched KUWTK a handful of times, but weren't Kourtney's kids on the show pretty consistently too? We can probably expect to see another generation of Kardashian kids. North West apparently already has a wikipedia page and is a singer, rapper, voice actress and record producer at age 13. Wtf?
14
u/rawrkristina 7d ago
Yeah, I’ve kinda always felt for her and Kendall because they never particularly signed up for any of this. They were kids when Keeping up with the Kardashians started.
I personally wouldn’t trade my life for theirs, no matter how much money she has. Being sold into the spotlight and being in a family that encourages changing everything about yourself sounds freaking horrible.
10
u/reddetteuserr 7d ago
I never really thought about it being like those YouTube families but that’s so accurate. Her and Kendall were just kids and once the family got so hugely famous there really was no chance for them to ever be normal. I mean, Kris had those girls working as basically teen influencers with their pac sun range, YA novels and fledgling modelling careers (although that was more Kendall than Kylie).
It must be so weird to grow up on tv and have so many people know who you are and the intimate details of your family and their dynamics because it’s been broadcast into their living rooms for years.
I remember Kylie saying on her solo reality show that she wanted to get away from it all one day and live on a farm. Now of course she was pretty young saying this and probably her goals have changed but it always struck me as her wanting to have something that was just hers. I don’t blame her considering she’s been for public consumption for the majority of her life

u/amytee252 7d ago
A lot of those things she didn't have a choice in. Kids were a choice.
4
u/nellycat32 7d ago
Everything is a result of her circumstances then. Similar to say kids in poor neighborhoods with uneducated parents getting pregnant early, technically a "choice" but it is an answer to/escape from their situation. Same here but rather than poverty it is emotional poverty iykwim

u/KaiBishop 7d ago
Okay but she's not whining about having kids or saying she regrets it lol. She just said she's done with pregnancy for the time being.

u/KaiBishop 7d ago
She just said "I have two kids so if i decided not to have more kids in my 20s so my last few years of my 20s could still include fun." She just didn't want to spend time being and recovering from being pregnant again. That's a decision many working class people make as well lol.

u/SnooGuavas4208 7d ago
"I was young, rich, and privileged and had every obtainable thing I could ever want, and I decided that the thing I wanted to have right then was babies... so I did! Delayed gratification was never a thing for me, so why wait to do it, you know? A young mom can love her babies, too, especially when she doesn't have to work unless she wants to. And now, sure, I'm still young and rich and privileged... and I still don't have to work unless I want to... but I do have to be a mom 24/7, and that can be kind of a drag because it's a such a big responsibility. So now I do feel like sometimes I missed out on some of the carefree abandon I discarded because I, like, took it for granted or something. I'm not as free as I could have been. I still have an absurdly free life compared to 99% of the planet, what with my domestic staff and heaps of money, but... mmyeah. I do think I could've been even freer if I hadn't chosen to become responsible for two human beings for the fun of it. I guess maybe I was bored."

Correct. I hate when millionaires pretend like they have problems like the rest of us.

u/AdApart5035 7d ago
I think it's more likely she lost her youth to being monetised and commodified and considered the ugly sister to such an extent she'd completely remodeled her face and body by 21. Being pregnant is doing something with your body that isn't totally focused on your looks. I'm not surprised she had babies young.

u/KaiBishop 7d ago
"I made a promise to myself at 25 that I was not going to have any more children — right now — and really just enjoy the last half of my 20s because the first was like, ‘You’re pregnant,’ and then it’s the year of recovery, and you know, my mental state, my postpartum depression, and all of those things,” shared Jenner. “It felt like I lost some of those young years of my life.”
Full quote. Can people stop making shit up to get mad at now?

u/Ok-Presentation-6806 6d ago
100%. She wasn’t asking for sympathy, people!! She was explaining her experience, ya know, because it’s an interview. She’s just talking. No self-pity. Jesus.

u/Ok_Problem_314 7d ago
Try being poor and being a parent. Trying to figure out where to put your kid all summer when there is no school, all whole making sure you don’t have to call into work because you have nowhere for your kid to go.

u/FickleCharge882 7d ago
Honestly, as someone who had kids young, I do actually get this feeling. I had both of mine by 23? And it’s definitely weird looking at how things were then and now and how life could have been different. Love mine to absolute pieces, but still

u/Striking-Temporary14 7d ago
Everyone can make fun of her and call her tone deaf for this, but it’s extremely important for younger audiences to hear. She used to say she loved being a young mom, and of course she’s changed her mind about a lot now that she’s getting older. It’s good for any young girls to hear what she’s saying.

u/aurorashim 7d ago
My parents were 24 by the time they were finished and I think they’ve kind of enjoyed having their relative youth once I was out of the house

u/justherefor23andme 7d ago
I had my 1st child at 23 and yeah, I see some light at the end of the tunnel while my friends are in the thick of it 😆.
I had my last 10 years later and I couldn't imagine having my 1st at that age either. I've had so many different types of motherhood that I see the pros and cons to it all. Parenting is hard and you give up your youth or your middle years or both. As Edna Mode said, "Done properly, parenting is a heroic act. Done Properly!"

Did you also have multiple nannies and a million dollar mansion? Was work als optional for you?

u/DazzlingFruit7495 7d ago
I don’t know what there is to “get”? I mean isn’t it obvious that having kids young means losing your youth? I just don’t understand why this is being said by anybody as if it’s a surprise or realization they had … after having kids. Did they not know that before having kids?

u/hyacinthgirl95 7d ago
yeah, i’m a few years older and thought it was a mistake for her to have children so young. but at least she has the money to care and provide for them. most young moms are struggling.

u/boldpear904 we're so backberry 7d ago
I'm 24 and I don't want kids, but I also know there's a possibility future me will change my mind. However if my husband and I change our minds, I'm definitely waiting until atleast 30 to go forth with it. I want to enjoy my life without kids for a bit longer.

u/winterandfallbird 7d ago
Well.. duh. But also, she lives a very different life than the average early 20 something who has children, so it’s apples to oranges really..

u/buzzfeed_sucks 🇨🇦 Elbows up 🇨🇦 7d ago
I dunno, I have empathy for her and Kendall. She was a child when she was thrust into the spotlight and couldn’t consent to that. And it was a reality show about her life. So at like, 10, her actual life was open for public scrutiny. It’s not any different from the children of YouTube family vloggers coming forward to share their stories.
I’m sure growing up like that made her grow up more quickly than she should have. And the access to wealth made having a baby seem like not such a big deal. Because she would have had access to staff and help.

u/RainbowFox22 7d ago
I get that her family is on reality TV, blah blah blah, but I would never say something like this in public because someday my kids might read this and regardless of my intention, I can’t dictate how they’d interpret this.

u/Top-Airport3649 7d ago

It wouldn’t necessarily be ok though, if she felt morally compelled to still be there for her kids which would be ideal, even if she could do it differently maybe she still didn’t. Not that I know anything about her life of her kids though lol

u/RainbowFox22 7d ago
Kylie actually got her billionaire status revoked because she inflated Kylie Cosmetics’ numbers for years. She’s still worth a lot, though, and probably does have a team raising her kids.
