The Kardashians might be the most famous family
on the globe.
But their public drama pales in comparison
to the dark secrets they've tried to keep
out of the spotlight.
From Kim's love life, to Kylie's lips, to
Khloé's baby fever, here are the dark secrets
this family tried to hide.
Feeling the weight
Rob Kardashian has had it tough.
Days before his older sister, Kim, married
Kanye West, Rob went off the rails tweeting
about his weight.
In since-deleted posts, he wrote, "So I found
out I was trending for being fat.
Thank you all, it really made my day."
It all came to a head after he was diagnosed
with diabetes in 2015 and was hospitalized
for it in December 2016.
TMZ reported Rob checked himself into the
hospital because his condition flared up thanks
to weight gain during his stressful relationship
to Blac Chyna.
It was a shocker, since just months earlier,
he told People that Chyna helped rid him of
the disease, saying, "She told me that by
having her cook for me, my diabetes would
be gone.
And it is."
Faking it
Was Khloé's seven-year marriage to Lamar
Odom a total sham?
No, but she did fake wanting to have kids
with the former NBA star.
During an episode of Kocktails with Khloé,
she shared they were once planning to have
a family, saying, "Lamar and I wanted to conceive,
we wanted to adopt, but also to foster kids."
But in a recent episode of Keeping Up with
the Kardashians, Khloé admitted to faking
trying to get pregnant with Lamar, revealing
to a fertility doctor:
"I was married, but I knew the circumstances
weren't the healthiest.
So, I just kept pretending I was doing it."
Lamar told Wendy Williams in 2017:
"That hurt a little bit."
"I wish she could have told me.
She didn't have to say it on TV to the whole
world."
But Lamar wasn't exactly innocent himself.
Love, lies, and marriage
Khloé did all she could to convince everyone
that her marriage to Lamar was working, revealing
to her family, "I kept in hiding every time
there was something going on.
I would have to lie, or conceal, or cover
up, and I'm so over it!"
A year after their divorce was finalized,
Lamar told Us Weekly in 2017,
"I wish I could have kept my d*ck in my pants.
If there is one thing I regret… multiple
affairs with different women."
"That wasn't the stand-up thing to do.
She didn't deserve that."
Lamar, who overdosed and nearly died in 2015,
said he got an apartment in Los Angeles just
so he could get high freely, out of sight
from his wife, admitting, "I wasn't trying
to repair my marriage; I was just trying to
get high."
Transformations
In Caitlyn's memoir, The Secrets of My Life,
she alleges that Kris 100 percent knew of
her gender identity crisis when they met,
adding that Kris was fully aware she was on
hormones for years before meeting, writing,
"I told her there had been a woman inside
me all my life."
Kris disagrees.
In an episode of Keeping Up the Kardashians,
Kris said the book was filled with lies.
"Everything she says is all made up."
"And then, all through the book, 'Kris knew.
Kris knew before I even made love to her.'
I'm like, what?'"
Kim believes Kris and Caitlyn will probably
never reconcile, telling Andy Cohen where
the chance of the former lovers ever talking
again, ranks, for her:
"I would say two percent.
And those are Kendall and Kylie."
Lips don't lie
Kylie Jenner regrets not coming clean about
her lip injections at age 16.
Talking with Complex, the teen star remembers
giving countless interviews in which she lied
about getting her lips enhanced.
Kylie says she developed an insecurity about
the size of her lips after a guy kissed her
in middle school and complained that her lips
were too thin.
She said, "From then on, I just felt like
I saw guys staring at my lips.
I felt like no one wanted to kiss me."
Kylie said she thought the best course of
action was to lie, but later admitted,
"These kids, my fans [...] I didn't want to
be a bad influence.
I didn't want [them] to think you had to get
your lips done to feel good about your face."
"I wish I had just been honest up-front."
Under pressure
The fashion industry has fallen in love with
Kendall Jenner.
But as the model described on Keeping Up with
the Kardashians in late 2016, she suffers
from both panic attacks and sleep paralysis.
Things became so intense that Kris recruited
a therapist to coach Kendall.
Kris also flew from Los Angeles to London
just so Kendall would feel comfortable on
a plane.
Writing in an end-of-year blog post via Teen
Vogue, Kendall described her use of breath
work to manage the episodes, saying, "Anxiety
was a huge hurdle for me to deal with this
past year, but I think I'm finally learning
how to cope."
Keeping up appearances
Watching Kim's Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian
Event, no one would suspect Kim's marriage
to NBA star Kris Humphries was already falling
apart.
But behind closed doors, Kim had a feeling
it wouldn't last long.
She later told Andy Cohen,
"I just thought, 'Holy s---, I'm 30 years
old…
I better get this together...
I better get married."
"It was more of that situation."
In all, the couple were married for 72 days.
Kim's divorce filing not only shocked the
world, but it shocked Humphries, who claims
he was blindsided.
He told TMZ,
"I'm committed to this marriage and everything
this covenant represents.
I love my wife and am devastated to learn
she filed for divorce…
I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make
it work."
Unfortunately, their marriage ended in a long,
bitter divorce, which was finally settled
in 2013, after Kim's infamous cry-face.
On the rocks
Scott Disick first began showing signs of
extreme abuse and misbehavior in 2010.
Keeping Up with the Kardashians cameras showed
him seriously intoxicated and shoving a $100
dollar bill down a waiter's throat after his
drinks were cut off.
Things became more and more horrifying until
in 2014, while filming a Hamptons spinoff,
Kourtney kicked him out of their shared rental
home.
Scott has been to rehab four times, with his
latest trip in the fall of 2015.
Kourtney said on the Hamptons show, "This
behavior has been going on for years."
Scott confessed to feeling lonely saying,
"It's been a really hard time going from...having
all of you guys, to having nobody."
In 2017, Scott, who has three kids with Kourtney,
doesn't appear to be getting any better.
He's been spotted with countless women all
over the world, including Bella Thorne, with
whom he partied in France.
Breakdown
Following his wife's 2016 Paris robbery, Kanye's
world began to fall apart.
He canceled his Saint Pablo Tour and checked
himself into UCLA Medical Center for help.
E! News claims the star was suffering from
exhaustion and sleep deprivation.
But there were signs things weren't okay in
the weeks leading up to his breakdown – including
several onstage rants, taped by fans, in which
he targeted Jay Z , saying,
"Don't call me after the robbery and say,
'How you feelin'?'
You wanna know how I'm feeling?
Come by the house."
TMZ reported the rapper ultimately became
unstable after screwing up the dosage of his
medication, adding that "Kanye has long suffered
from psychological issues" which are controlled
by medication.
Insiders tell E! News Kanye's balancing his
life much better these days.
Factory girl
After taking fans on a virtual tour of the
factory where her Good American denim is manufactured,
Khloe found out some fans didn't exactly like
what they saw, claiming she was running a
"sweat shop."
The footage showed workers creating jeans
by hand in a warehouse with unfinished floors.
In one video she's even heard warning the
workers:
"Don't f--k it up!
All the pressure's on you!"
Khloe fired back, tweeting, "Watch your mouth.
All make salaries and all are employed in
[Los Angeles]!
Know your info before you chime in.
It means a lot to me to fight to make my denim
in the US and to be employing good wages to
all of my hardworking employees!"
