Have you ever wondered if relentless work dedication can doom a romance? For Kim Kardashian, that was precisely the case. On the season 5 finale of The Kardashians, the 43-year-old TV star revealed how her unwavering commitment to her career ultimately sealed the fate of a relationship with an unnamed ex.
In a candid moment from the episode aired on Thursday, July 25, Kardashian opened up about her "fight-or-flight" response to being asked to slow down her bustling schedule. "When someone tells me not to do something that I planned on, I get physically like, 'You're getting in my way and I will bulldoze whatever is in my way, 'cuz you're not going to tell me to change my schedule,'" she explained. Her reaction to her ex's suggestion to take a week off? A firm, "Get out of here!" This moment, Kardashian disclosed, was the "beginning of the end" for their relationship.
The moniker was bleeped out during the SKIMS founder's confession so it's unclear who she was referring to, however, for reference, she's dated Pete Davidson and Odell Beckham Jr. since parting ways from Kanye West in 2021.
In an earlier episode this season, Kardashian discussed how past traumas have shaped her demeanor. Describing her calmness as both a superpower and a potential vulnerability, she opened up about the nuances of appearing unshakeable. "I would always say how calm I am and that's my superpower, but my therapist felt like it's a trauma response of me remaining calm in living the life that I always have to be in this fight-or-flight mode," she explained in her confessional. "It was such a lightbulb moment."
During that same episode, the beauty mogul offered a rare glimpse into a moment from 2016 that forever altered her approach to life, recalling the night she was robbed at gunpoint in Paris. "Imagine you're like, gun to your head, getting tied up, dragged across a hotel room, and the guy, I remember him telling me, like, 'Just stay calm and you'll live.' And I did that and it served me well at the time and I think it saved my life," the mom-of-four recounted. "But I think I've let it get too calm to where people could take advantage of my calmness or I'm just turning into a full robot with no emotion."
