Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Kanye West have turned a corner in their coparenting dynamic. "You and Ye have really bonded over [your daughter] North's producing," Kim's sister Khloé Kardashian said on the Wednesday, January 21, episode of her "Khloé in Wonderland" podcast. "You guys are now in a much better place because of that." Kim, 45, and West, 48, divorced in 2021 after seven years of marriage, during which the Skims mogul received primary custody of the pair's four children. "Yeah, I'm a really empathetic person. I mean, at the end of the day, we're always family," Kim said, agreeing with Khloé's perspective on the exes' situation. "I always look at it that way, no matter what's going on. There are times when I have to be super protective and there are times when, at any moment, I would love that relationship. I've always said that." Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Have Developed an 'Amicable' Relationship While Kim previously claimed on a 2025 episode of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast that she hadn't heard from West in months, things changed as 12-year-old North began dabbling in her own music career. "The music side and the producing isn't my thing, and that's her bonding thing with her dad," Kim told Khloé, 41. "Even just coming up with stuff, we have to communicate about how North moves through that world and all these opportunities that come her way and having to filter that and respecting his opinion on the things that go on with his kids is really important." She continued, "I think it's important for the kids. You just, kind of, have to put all the other stuff to the side." Kim further revealed how she parents her children when they are in her care. (In addition to North, she and West share Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6.) "I treat my two older kids a little bit [differently]. I have, like, stricter rules for my two little kids," Kim acknowledged. "So, my two older kids have devices [and] my two little kids don't. It's interesting [because[ your first kid [or] your first two kids, they're growing up without or [you are] figuring it all out together, and then you learn and you realize you want to maybe do things differently." Everything Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Have Said About Coparenting While Kim has evolved into a generally strict parent, she still "wouldn't change anything." "I have such a great relationship with my kids. They love me, they respect me [and] they're great," the Kardashians star gushed on Wednesday. "Every kid has, you know, phases and have these growing moments and learning moments, and we've gotten through all of that. I just love how they grow and evolve." West, who has since remarried Bianca Censori, has also been candid about his post-divorce dynamic with Kim. "Even to this day, I'll still give Kim advice on things that could help because that's going to go to the kids," West said on a 2022 episode of the "Alo Mind Full" podcast. "She's still got them 80 percent of the time, [to] raise those children. So what people saw when I was going back and forth is that I still have to be able to throw my version of what people would throw into the curriculum." As for Kim, she's needed to come to terms with navigating her life after divorce. "When I got a divorce, [I thought] my life was over," she said. "I just thought our [family's] careers were over. I was like, 'I brought us up and I'm taking us right down. I'm sorry guys, but better me than anyone.' I've, literally, been so dramatic after my 72-day wedding [to Kris Humphries]."
