Kim Kardashian Compares Divorce Experience To Battle With Cancer
Kim Kardashian is known to share nearly every detail of her life with her fans so she can better connect with them.
She has been adamant to say that she has undergone much personal growth from her 72-day marriage to NBA player Kris Humphries, however, the star might have taken a comparison too far during an interview with The Guardian, when she compared her divorce to that of someone who is suffering from cancer.
"I think that, with any decisions in life [brace yourselves], like, I spoke to a girl today who had cancer and we were talking about how this is such a hard thing for her, but it taught her a big lesson on who her friends are and so much about life. She's 18. And I was like, that's how I feel," Kardashian said.
After she divorced Humphries, Kardashian said she stopped Googling for months, changed her email address and lost some friends.
"All these people who were so on my side completely turned on me, and they're now trying to come back and be friends," she told The Guardian.
Although she claimed to have undergone a transformation, she has not kept her word on keeping her personal life private (a.k.a all the Twitter pictures she posted of her and her current boyfriend, Kanye West).
In March, she told Allure magazine the following:
"Whenever I choose to get into [a relationship] again, I'm not ready, but when that time comes, I'll be more cautious about who I let my world open up to. People [think] because you film your life on a reality show, you live everything for the cameras. But we all have our limits. My mom has no limits. We need someone, right, to have no limits? That's my mom."
Kardashian has not wavered in her response that her marriage to Humphries was not a publicity stunt.
"Getting married and divorced quickly, if that was my goal the whole time - I'm not an idiot, I obviously know that that would be a bad business decision," she told The Guardian. "If anything, I probably would have left sooner had I not been filming, because I didn't want to end the relationship on TV."
