In her confessional, Khloe explained: ‘Kim has been struggling privately behind camera about her relationship…
‘And it’s tough because Kim is clearly redirecting so much of her frustration and sadness and anger, and you know, sometimes you just take things out on something that has nothing to do with what you’re going through. It’s not the cookies fault’.
Khloe in a spacious living room then asked Kim how she was doing with Kanye. Kim said: ‘There’s no fighting. Like, now, it’s all calm. I just roll with it.’

‘I feel like a f***ing failure that it’s, like, a third f***ing marriage. Yeah, I feel like a f***king loser,’ Kim cried as her sisters tried to console her.
Kim said she couldn’t think that way because she wanted to be happy.
