Some wounds take a very long time to heal, and some family dynamics are so complicated, they can’t be easily put into a box.
On Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 14 Episode 3, Kim’s Paris robbery ordeal came back to haunt her in a major way.
Meanwhile, Kourtney Kardashian found herself in a world of trouble when she tried to hide her dating life … but from whom?
If you watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online, you will see an episode kicking off with Kim getting ready for the Met Gala.
By her side as she preps for this event on Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 14 Episode 3 are Kylie and Kendall Jenner.
Kylie was focused on showcasing her impossibly curvy figure, and that means making her waist so thin she can’t even breathe.
Seriously. Her words. “I need to kind of suffocate. Like, I need to not be able to breathe like the whole time,” she instructed.
Kylie was also dismayed that her red carpet slot was “so f–king early” and thus not prime time, but Kim had bigger things on her mind.
Much bigger things.
Even after so many years of fame, she was a nervous wreck about this red carpet appearance, saying she was “about to throw up.”
Spoken like a first-timer, she revealed part of her mantra: “I’ll say to myself, ‘Suck my stomach in, arms to the side, chin down.’”
The issue here is that even someone as famous, wealthy and renowned for posing nude as Kim has some serious body issues.
“She’s got a real insecurity problem lately,” Jonathan Cheban said, while Kim added, “That Mexico trip really f–ked me up.”
That was when shady photographers captured Kim Kardashian bikini photos at a most unflattering, cellulite-revealing angle.
Kim said this gave her “body dysmorphia,” and that’s the kind of thing you don’t just snap your fingers and get over on cue.
Kourtney Kardashian thought it was a trigger for something worse, adding, “I think this is just making her think about Paris again.”
According to her older sister, Kim was publicly ridiculed after the robbery, so any scrutiny – even over body issues – is amplified.
Khloe Kardashian agreed, saying that Kim “was just mocked about this traumatic thing that happened to her” and it’s harsh.
We give the Kardashians a hard time for their hashtag First World Problems, but in all seriousness, Kim is still human after all.
You might not think of unflattering press bringing Kim’s past demons to the surface as a big deal, but to her, it is beyind that.
It is all she thinks about.
Meanwhile, Kourtney began a new relationship … with a guy whose name was not revealed, but we have to assume is Younes Bendjima.
She didn’t reveal that, and seemed to try to keep the romance on the DL, but these are the Karadshians. Secrets aren’t easy to keep.
There was no hiding her excitement.
Said Khloe of her older sister’s love:
“It’s so cute to see her this giddy.”
When Kourtney returned home after a night out that went … very well, Khloe (good-naturedly) called her out by calling it what it is:
“Walk of shame, right there.”
Sorry Scott.
