Kim Kardashian ‘is more open to dating again’ as ex Kanye West moves on with new wife Bianca Censori

Kim Kardashian is ready to start dating again, eight months after her divorce from Pete Davidson and divorce from longtime husband Kanye West.

While her former husband, 45, is moving on to Bianca Censori, 28, who he married in a non-legally binding ceremony that took place last January, the reality star, 42, is reportedly ‘open’ to the idea of ​​finding love again .

“Kim is more open to dating again and putting herself out there,” an insider revealed to Entertainment Tonight. “She feels good and confident, and she’s in a great place!”

She was previously married to West from 2014 to 2021, before embarking on an unexpected nine-month romance with Davidson, who is now dating Chase Sui Wonders.

The Kardashians star was also previously married to Damon Thomas from 2000 to 2004 and then Kris Humphries for a 72-day period in 2011, but recently explained that her “fantasy” would be her “fourth” trip down the aisle. would be ‘the charm’ but is willing to ‘take’ [her] time.’

‘I am. I am [such a romantic]. I’ve got this fantasy in my head, like the fourth time is a charm, it’s going – it’s going to work. I honestly feel like my last marriage was my first real one [one] — the first one, I just don’t know what was going on,” she said on The Goop Podcast in December.

She continued, “The second, I felt like I wanted to get married so bad because all my friends were in that place and that’s where I should have been, and I wasn’t accepting that just wasn’t where I was and see that was good.’

And now I feel like I’d definitely take my time — and I’d be fine for a perpetual partnership, too. I’d like marriage, but I’m so happy to take my time,” she said.

Kim filed for divorce from West, who is the father of her four children North, 10, Saint, seven, Chicago, five, and three-year-old Psalm, in February 2021 after nearly seven years of marriage.

It took over a year — and countless fiery Instagram tirades from Kanye airing their custody battle and behind-the-scenes drama — for the couple to settle the breakup.

TMZ revealed that Kim will receive $200,000 monthly in child support. It was also agreed that Kim and Kanye will have joint custody and “equal access” to their children.

While the pair have come to terms, Kim previously confessed that co-parenting with the Gold Digger hitmaker was “really f***ing hard.”

She was moved to tears after making the confession while performing on the Angie Martinez IRL podcast this week.

Kim explained that she’s been trying to protect her kids from “all the crazy stuff” that comes with Kanye’s public outbursts, but insisted that if they asked her about it in the future, she’d be “willing” to answer.

Kim cried as she talked about the childhood she had with her late father Robert Kardashian: “I had the best dad. I don’t want to get emotional. It’s just been a day for me. It is difficult. S*** like co-parenting, it’s really fucking hard, you know.”

Angie, 51, said Kim didn’t co-parent with the “quietest, easiest” ex-partner.

Kim replied, “Yeah, but I had the best dad and I had the best memories and the best experience and that’s all I want for my kids.” As long as they can have that, that’s what I’d want for them, you know.

“So if they don’t know the things that are being said or what’s going on in the world, why would I ever give them that energy?” You know, that’s like real heavy, heavy adult shit. That they are not ready to deal with it.

“And when they do, we’ll have those conversations and I’ll be so prepared, but until then, I’ll do everything I can to keep their lives as normal as possible.”

Kim said she’ll be prepared if her kids ask questions about Kanye’s public outbursts, but for now she’s keeping quiet.

She said, “One day my kids will thank me for sitting here and not bash their dad if I could,” she told host Angie Martinez.

‘All the crazy stuff. They will thank me and I will privately answer anything they want to know. It’s not up to me to jump in anymore.’

“I certainly protected him and I still will in the eyes of my children for my children. In my house, my children know nothing about the outside world…

‘I’m holding on by a thread. I know I’m so close it won’t happen. As long as that happens, I will protect it to the ends of the earth as long as I can.

Kim shared how she has shielded her four children from the drama – both public and private – between the two A-list parents.

She explained, “I definitely protected him and I still will. In the eyes of my children – for my children.

“So in my house my kids don’t do anything that’s happening in the outside world and I’ve managed it — I’m holding on to a thread and I know I’m close enough that that doesn’t happen, but while it still is, that I will protect to the ends of the earth as long as I can.’

Kim said she has really gone out of her way to keep her kids away from the drama and even calls her “best friends” the teachers at their school who keep her up to date with what the kids are talking about.

She revealed, “None of the [other] kids ever said something to my kids. When things go down, I protect things right down to the TVs and the content on them. It is [a full-time job].’

She got candid when she admitted, “[It’s] worth it because of course I want to distance myself from specific thoughts and things being said because I’m not but at the same time I could experience something at home but when we drive to school and they want to listen to their father’s music , no matter what’s happening in the world, I need to have that smile on my face and blast his music and sing along and act like nothing’s wrong.

“I’ll have a good cry once I drop them off.”
