Kim Kardashian says she will always be Kanye's biggest cheerleader in front of their kids, no matter what

• Kim Kardashian told Vogue that she will be Ye's biggest cheerleader in front of their children.
• She said regardless of her feelings toward her kids' dad, she'll always tell them he's the best.

Just days after Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, lashed out about his 8-year-old North being on TikTok despite his objections, his ex, Kim Kardashian, said she'll always be a supportive coparent to him.

"Make sure you are your co-parent's biggest cheerleader, no matter what you're personally going through," Kardashian said in an interview with Vogue.

That doesn't mean Kardashian doesn't have her own feelings about Ye's behavior, but she's vowed to keep them hidden from her kids.

"You could be so hurt or angry at your ex, but I think in front of the kids, it always has to be 'Your dad's the best,'" she said.

Kardashian is also determined to keep "all matters regarding our children" out of the public eye as much as she can, she said on her Instagram stories.

"Divorce is difficult enough on our children and Kanye's obsession with trying to control and manipulate our situation so negatively and publicly is only causing further pain for all," she wrote recently.

Coming into her own in her 40s

In the same interview, Kardashian, 41, said she's determined to make her 40s a decade dedicated to herself.

"For so long, I did what made other people happy," she said. "And I think in the last two years I decided, I'm going to make myself happy. And that feels really good."

That new approach might have led to her divorce, she said, but it was worth it.

"It's important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I've chosen myself. I think it's okay to choose you," she said. "My 40s are about being Team Me. I'm going to eat well. I'm going to work out. I'm going to have more fun, spend more time with my kids and the people who make me happy. I'm going to put my phone down."

On a recent trip to the Bahamas, the people she was with tossed their phones into the ocean to force themselves to unplug.

"I was like, 'What? What? What? Am I allowed to do that?' " Kardashian said.

Advocating for other women

In the past few years, Kardashian has become more involved with the legal system, advocating on behalf of women convicted of crimes. She enrolled in the Law Office Study Program, an alternative program in which attendees intern for four years instead of attending law school. She's also visited prisons in California, hearing stories from incarcerated women.

"Literally every crime the women I spoke to had committed was for their significant other," she said. "I heard stories like, 'My boyfriend told me to pick this up. And I didn't know what it was. I didn't question him.' I was like, wow, I probably would've done the same."

Hearing those stories affects the way she raises her own kids, she said.

"This work has taught me so much, especially raising Black boys, who are going to be targeted so much more than their white friends," she said.
