Kim Kardashian opened up about the end of her relationship with a mystery ex during the season 5 finale of “The Kardashians.” In a candid discussion, the 43-year-old reality star recounted a recent therapy session that led her to a crucial realization about her fight-or-flight personality and its impact on her romantic life. When she attempted to name her ex, the show’s final cut bleeped it out, keeping his identity a secret.
Therapy Session Insights
Kim discussed how her fight-or-flight response has affected her relationships. She shared an example where her ex suggested she take a week off from work, which she perceived as an obstruction to her plans. This incident marked the beginning of the end of their relationship. Kim expressed a strong reaction to being told to change her schedule, stating that she would bulldoze anything in her way.
Speculation on Ex’s Identity
Although the show’s editing obscured the ex’s name, fans speculate that Kim might be referring to either SNL alum Pete Davidson or NFL star Odell Beckham Jr., both of whom she has been linked to since her split from Kanye West in 2021.
Reflections on Past Trauma
In an earlier episode this season, Kim opened up about how she has been coping with the trauma from being robbed at gunpoint in Paris in 2016. She shared with her sister Khloe that the incident forced her to stay calm, which she believes saved her life. This calmness has since become a significant part of her personality, although she now worries it may have led her to become too emotionless and potentially taken advantage of by others.
