Entrepreneur and television star Kim Kardashian is reportedly ready to leave 2025 behind, a year she describes as one of the most difficult of her life. According to sources close to her, cited by the Daily Mail, the Skims co-founder feels “defeated” and “exhausted” after facing multiple personal and professional challenges. Among the hardest blows of the year, according to the same source, is failing the bar exam, a setback described as “a huge slap in the face and a massive blow to her ego.” This setback adds to the difficulties she faces as a mother of four—North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm—whom she shares with her ex-husband, Kanye West. “Being a mother is hard. She loves her children, but in addition to having such a busy life, it’s been a struggle dealing with everything else in her personal life,” the source explained. The co-parenting dynamic with West, although reported as amicable during the recent holiday season, continues to present a significant challenge.

The Search for Love on Hold

In matters of the heart, Kardashian, who divorced West in 2022, has been linked to several public figures. However, the source indicates that the star “doesn’t know if she’ll ever have time for another serious relationship in her life.” Although she would love to find love again, the hectic pace of her life has made her feel that “you can’t have it all.” To cope with this, she would choose to “bury herself in work.”

Despite the exhaustion and feeling of defeat, Kardashian would receive support from her family, who remind her that “these trials are part of God’s plan.” With her hopes pinned on the new year, the businesswoman expects that 2026 will bring a respite and better times, after a cycle she describes as possibly the worst yet. So far, Kim Kardashian's representatives have not officially commented on these reports.
