Kim Kardashian opened up about the bittersweet reality of motherhood.

On Saturday, November 9, the 44-year-old mother of four shared a poignant message through her Instagram stories about the “sad part about motherhood.”

Her post came shortly after a source claimed she is “pretty much a single mom” because her ex-husband Ye is “not around very much.”

“The sad part about motherhood is that you’re raising the one person you can’t live without… to live without you,” the SKIMS founder wrote in her recent message.

The text appeared over a background of crumpled white paper and was accompanied by a teary-eyed emoji.

Kim shares four children, daughters North, 11, and Chicago, 6, and sons Saint, 8, and Psalm, 5, with rap mogul Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.

The former couple tied the knot in May 2014 and finalized their divorce in November 2022.

The “Stronger” rapper is currently married to Bianca Censori.

A source close to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians alum said her life revolves around her four children.

“Kanye is sadly not around very much. She’s pretty much a single mom,” the insider told People last month. “Although she has help, it’s still a lot of work for her to balance and coordinate everything.”

“Kim’s life is around her kids’ schedules. When they are in school, she works. When they are off, she’s very much focused on being a mom,” they added.

The Grammy-winning musician had also agreed to pay $200,000 a month in child support to his ex-wife. He was also expected to cover half of the children’s educational and security expenses.

Ye made a case for “men’s voices matter” during an interview with Good Morning America in 2022.

“I have a right to have a voice on what my kids are wearing, what they’re watching, what they’re eating,” he said. “I have a platform where I get to say what so many dads can’t say out loud,” he said.

“I’m their dad. It has to be co-parenting. It’s not up to only the woman. Like, men have a choice also. Men’s voices matter,” he added in the same interview.
