Kim Kardashian has opened up about a serious health scare in a teaser for the new season of The Kardashians on Hulu. In the clip, she undergoes an MRI scan and reveals to her family that doctors found “a little aneurysm,” with her sister Kourtney reacting in shock. Kim explained that the doctors attributed the aneurysm to stress, saying it was likely caused by the pressures she’s been facing in her personal and professional life.
A brain aneurysm, according to the Mayo Clinic, is a bulge in a blood vessel in the brain. While most aneurysms are small and don’t rupture, a leak or burst can result in a hemorrhagic stroke, which is potentially life-threatening. Kim has highlighted stress as a major factor in her health challenges, previously noting that her psoriasis resurfaced after her divorce due to heightened stress.
The preview also touches on her emotional journey post-divorce from Kanye West. Kim expressed relief that the marriage is over but acknowledged the ongoing responsibility of co-parenting their four children—North (12), Saint (9), Chicago (7), and Psalm (6). She described the importance of protecting her kids from negative influences while allowing them to learn and grow.
Reflecting on her past relationship with Kanye, Kim admitted that she often felt a personal responsibility to help or protect him, but now she no longer carries that burden. The revelation underscores how she’s balancing her health, motherhood, and career while navigating complex emotional landscapes.
This health disclosure highlights not only the physical toll of stress but also Kim’s candid approach to sharing personal struggles with her fans.
