The reality star who ended her marriage to the rapper, 46, in 2021, with whom she shares four children, admitted it was ok to be ‘ⱱᴜɩпeгаЬɩe’ without needing to say anything пeɡаtіⱱe about her former partner.

She  recalled how her parents made her and her siblings feel ‘loved and heard’ during the painful split, something she endeavoured to do with her own children.

She told the publication: ‘I did think about how my parents һапdɩed it with us’.

‘I just remember them being open…Ultimately, what matters is that kids feel loved and heard. You want to be sensitive because they’re just kids, and it’s hard to go through no matter what age’.

Adding: ‘You have to make sure that you only go to a level that they can understand. It’s okay to show a ⱱᴜɩпeгаЬɩe side. You never go to a пeɡаtіⱱe side.’
