Kim Kardashian is still living with her mom & keeping her clothes in the garage

144510PCN_Kardashian11

Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West leaving Kendall Jenner’s birthday party in LA on Tuesday. Kim needs to stop with the high-neck blouses and the chokers, just in general. Pregnant or not, anything with a high neck really screws up her proportions and ends up making her look shorter and dumpy. You’d expect someone with Kanye’s style expertise (???) to realize that basic fact.

Anyway, I’m consistently and pleasantly surprised by how often Kanye shows up for Kim and her family. Kanye gets along really well with Kris Jenner, Caitlyn Jenner and with Kim’s sisters. The fact that Kanye attended Kendall’s birthday party is just another reminder that he’s been completely absorbed into the Kardashian-Jenner fold. And it’s gotten to the point where Kim and Kanye are STILL living with Kris Jenner. Seriously.

As a rapper turned trainer designer, and reality star businesswoman, they’ve each made millions. But despite their huge joint fortune, it seems Kim Kardashian and Kanye West just can’t get it together to make their house a home. With Kanye yet again indulging himself with an ambitious remodel, his pregnant wife finds herself back home living with mom – and it seems space is a little tight. Kim gave her fans a tour of her temporary closet on her website www.kimkardashianwest.com – revealing that her clothes are all stored in the garage.

‘I have my tiny little closet in my moms garage because I’m living with her,’ explained Kim, as she panned her phone around to show the cavernous garage space. ‘So I just have all my stuff in here so that I’m not like overwhelming her. And its just the stuff that fits me when I’m pregnant.’

Of course, Kim’s remarkably zen-like attitude towards the unenviable housing arrangement may be the result of simple resignation. For, of course, this isn’t the first time she’s had to ask mom to take her in. Kris opened the door to her admittedly large-enough Calabasas mansion for the first time back in 2013, when Kanye indulged himself with an extensive remodel of the couple’s newly purchased $11million Bel Air mansion. The two bought the home before Kim even fell pregnant, but the remodel was not completed when daughter North, now two, was born.

[From The Daily Mail]

My mom and I get along really well, probably because we don’t spend more than three or four hours together at a time. If I had to live in very close proximity to my mom or in the very same house, we probably wouldn’t get along so well. In fact, I know for sure that we would get on each other’s nerves after 24 hours and we would both say things we would regret. It amazes me that Kim not only lives with her mom, but has lived with her consistently for the past two and a half years, AND Kanye and North West are living there too.

    She really looks like Naya Rivera here.

  2. Snazzy says:

    Some people have a high co-dependency with their families. My best friend is like that. When she got married, she and her hubby bought a house on the same street as her mom, they eat there all the time, spend the night etc.

    It would make me nuts but to each his own, I guess

    • LadyMTL says:

      Yeah, I love my mom to pieces but if I was living super close to her / with her, I’d be going nuts too. A year or so ago we actually worked in the same office, and I did not enjoy that at all. I think generally we need some distance, at the end of the day.

      • Ange says:

        Oh gosh I could do it easy, if it was just me and mum and we didn’t have partners for some reason. I can imagine it now; pottering around the house, cups of tea in the morning, wine time at 6….

        We actually worked in the same office for a time and it was super fun. But then again we are definitely ‘friends’ now so we can just enjoy hanging out without any of those expectations you can get from the parent/child dynamic. Heck I don’t even call her mum, I call her by her first name.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      I adore my mother and love spending time with her, but she would sit my stuff out on the front lawn and change the locks if I tried to move myself and my husband back in there unless it was an emergency situation. Parents need their space, too, or mine do.

      • BooBooLaRue says:

        LOL this could be my family; seems healthy to me.

      • Snazzy says:

        My mom would love it if we moved in with her, or had the same set up as my friend. She has that with my sister, they are constantly talking and my sister is over at her place or vice versa, and she doesn’t miss an opportunity to tell me how it is so difficult for her because I moved away and she needs to be around her kids all the time. Makes me nuts, she has no understanding of personal space and the need for people to lead separate lives. As it is we live in different times zones and thinks its perfectly ok to phone several times a day at all hours!

        I love my mom, but there are times when she is completely suffocating. I couldn’t even imagine moving back in with her. In that way (and I can’t even believe I am saying this) the relationship PMK has with Kim seems very similar to the one my mom has with my sister or my friend has with her mom. I don’t get it, but I see it around me a lot.

    • PrincessMe says:

      Yep, to each their own. In a lot of cultures, many generations live under the same roof. Sure a lot of times it’s out of necessity, but if they want to live together or spend and extended amount of time together, who are we to say otherwise. Plus, I can’t see them being home and crammed in the same space 24/7.
      I couldn’t live with my mom (we’re practically strangers) or my husband’s mom (don’t get me started there), but that’s just me.

  3. savu says:

    They’ve got some co-dependence there though, and THAT’S the weird part to me.

  4. jwoolman says:

    Not sure how much Kanye is living there. Doesn’t he have his own place in town? (Besides their shared endlessly remodeled house.) So he might just be visiting. Besides, her mom’s house is big enough. It’s not like she’s squeezing into her mom’s one-bedroom apartment and sleeping on her couch.

    The endless remodeling might be another manifestation of Kanye’s manic phases. Also Kim lives with her mom because she wants to live with her mom. They could just rent or even buy a nice apartment/condo like Kendall has (her place is huge) while Kanye plays the remodeling game.

    On another note- Kim actually looks nice in the photo.

  5. snowflake says:

    So basically, she doesn’t have to lift a finger between nannies and living with her mom. Has she ever really lived with any of her men? Weird.

  6. Boston Green Eyes says:

    Because her husband’s gay?

    • saras says:

      Yaaasssss! They need a garage size closet because of that: )

    • Hawaiisun says:

      Right? I dont think they have ever lived together or even own a home they are “remodeling”. He is into things other than Kim and that is just fine with her as long as the checks and endorsements come rolling in for the family. She in return gives him a few kids and the family sports Yeezy wear every month or so.

  7. WinnieCoopersMom says:

    She lives there bc she wants to live there. No excuse with all the money she has. She and her mother are obsessed with each other and both of them seem to lean on each other during hard times; Kim is hugely pregnant with a gay man’s baby. Kris is still recovering from the Caitlyn thing. Kinda makes sense for the time being.

  8. QQ says:

    The world’s smallest violin played a mournful tune for this one and her no neck wrapped in spandex self

  9. Rainbow says:

    These feet scream for help.
    Also,sequins on a heavily pregnant woman, how clever.

  10. Zip says:

    Living with your parents (in a house with separate appartments) can work quite well when everyone minds their own business. Granted, here it’s not the case but they seem to get along well.

  11. Tiffany27 says:

    They have so much money. Why move back in with your mother when you have a husband, a child, and another child on the way?

    • Janie says:

      I don’t believe for one minute they even own a house. She’s always lived with Kris and has no intention of moving. If they want anyone to believe he’s that picky, then build one. No way they own property to live in. Their funds aren’t endless, regardless of what they want anyone to believe or think. They’re pushing 40 and still live with mommy. That’s probably the reason the two youngest moved out.

    • jwoolman says:

      It’s not like Kim is actually busy with her husband and child. She just spends occasional time with Kanye, it seems more like a business relationship. Her child is used as a photo op prop and otherwise is under the care of nannies and/or aunts/cousins. Kim doesn’t have to clean, do laundry, feed the kid, bathe the kid, etc. So living with Demon Mother really isn’t a problem for either of them, it’s the way they’ve worked together for many years. Kim doesn’t change to accommodate a husband or children.

  12. Sea Dragon says:

    Its been confirmed. Kim Kardashian is having a bowling ball, not a baby.

  13. Kitten says:

    So…why is she so hunched all the time? Is this something that commonly happens with pregnancy or is she just incredibly uncomfortable in her skin or both?
    Every time I look at her terrible posture, I wonder how much more pressure she’s putting on her neck/back by hunching like that…

    Can you ladies help me out here? Is this typical?

    • Swack says:

      I never hunched. But then again I didn’t wear 6″ heels and dresses so long that you can trip on them. Not good for your back. Learned that one when I had my rotator cuffs repaired. My PT told me to make sure i keep my shoulders back. I was a teacher and slumping my shoulders was a given. I can tell when I’m slumping because my upper back hurts and I immediately pull them back.

    • Neah23 says:

      I don’t get it ether. In every photo of her hunched and looking like she unable to hold up her head, she always looks super drugged up like she doesn’t know what’s going on.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      And what’s with the glassy, blank stare?

    • FingerBinger says:

      @Kitten Could it be her breasts? Those get bigger with pregnancy. That could be making her hunch over.

      • swack says:

        If it is then she needs to consciously keep her shoulders back. But her breasts were that large last time and I don’t remember her slumping like that.

  14. Mimz says:

    Well, I think it’s been said before, that he really appreciates the whole “tight knit family” they seem to have, the Kardashians. And since he has been lost since his mother passed, maybe that’s why he enjoys having a motherly figure around. Even if that motherly figure is freaking Kris.

    • Josephine says:

      Except that I don’t get the sense that he’s actually there. He has always maintained his own residence in LA I believe. He is sometimes papped there.

  15. Swack says:

    All my daughters live close by. One lives two doors down. It’s nice to have them close as when you need something you don’t necessarily have to go to the store to get it. We all give each other our space. I really don’t think Kim and Kanye will ever live in their own house alone. Sad.

    • megs283 says:

      I live a half-mile from my parents, and I love it!! Easy to get together, easy to stop by and borrow a muffin tin or something random like that, easy to have an impromptu walk or a cup of tea together…

  16. Brewster says:

    Whenever she’s pregnant the bloat it brings to her face combined with the plastic surgery just looks so scary and hideous. Just 2-3 yrs ago she looked so dope. Amazing. Her hotness has passed. I just don’t think she’s hot anymore. I see it now when ppl say she ruined her face.

  17. Ankhel says:

    She looks… decent here? A rare occurrence. Her face doesn’t appear to move though. What has she done to it now? That poor mug has withstood more abuse than most car tires.

  18. Saywhatwhen says:

    She is starting to look alien-like to me. She was very pretty. Such a terrible thing she made happen to her…

    • Keriann says:

      @Saywhatwhen I totally agree. Everything is so severe about her appearance now…nothing resembles a real woman in her face. She used to be quite beautiful.

  19. word says:

    How much renovation are they doing to their house? The already moved into their new home and now have moved out to do “more renovations”? They can’t be doing the whole house over again….maybe a few rooms but there’s no reason to move out then. I think Kim gets majorly spoiled at her mom’s house and that’s why she never wants to leave there. Kris admitted Kim is her fav so you can only imagine how much her ass gets kissed there. It’s funny because Kim said it was “torture” staying at her mom’s house last time (which I call b.s. on).

  20. iseepinkelefants says:

    I think most people overlook the fact that Kim and Kris are the closest. I don’t know if it’s because Kim is Kris’ original cash cow but they’re always agreeing with each other even going against the other and I think Khloe even says she’s a mini Kris so this makes sense. Kris is probably like a Mama Middleton and dotes on her prized possession to the point where it’s probably impossible to leave. Can you imagine how much she probably kisses Kanye’s ass? Yeah you wouldn’t want to leave a constant ego stroke either.

  21. Jayna says:

    They super millionaires. They can afford grand temporary housing. I have never understood this.

    Of course, Kanye gets along with Kris. She treats him like a king and kisses up to him unlike how she treated Scott all of those years. Of course, Scott was a nobody.

  22. lucy2 says:

    I don’t get it. Being close to family (not theirs) can be wonderful, but they are grown adults with a marriage and children. Shouldn’t they want their own space, their own home? Though I guess that would imply it’s an actual marriage.

  23. snowflake says:

    Such a weird marriage. How can you spend so much time away from the one you love? And not even live with them? I am beginning to think this is a marriage of convenience, not love

  24. Barbara says:

    HaHa….I am anxious for my kids to leave when they drop by….could not live with any of them.

  25. Tiffany says:

    I think they spend more than they bring and could possibly have issues getting temporary housing. That initial remodel is probably money pit and they cannot get rid of it.

    • Caz says:

      I think they’re keeping up the appearance of being mega wealthy. They spend massive amounts of $$$

  26. Pandy says:

    Just coming on to be mean about this outfit! She looks like a fitness ball …

  27. Amy M. says:

    Meh depends on the culture. We Americans are all about needing our space and rushing to move out at the age of 22. I don’t live too far from my parents. I’m in Manhattan and they are out in the suburbs. I go home to seen them sometimes on the weekends. I know people still living with their parents in late 20s/early 30s. I feel like in a lot of countries it’s the norm to have multiple generations living together. I don’t think it’s that weird. I don’t need tons of space from my parents, we’re pretty close.

    Why is “Kims” body guard in “background” photo of Willow Smiths clubbing at 14-15 years old? Is Kylie and whats his name near her??

  29. j. wilson says:

    And today in plastic pornstar news.

  30. Velvet Elvis says:

    Doesn’t even matter what she wears anymore really because her face looks so unfortunate. The last round of surgery took away the last vestiges of beauty from her face. She’s had so much plastic surgery that she barely even looks human, let alone attractive. Sad because she was once a naturally beautiful woman.

  31. ekaterina says:

    My cousin, married with twins moved in with her mom for 3 months while her sister who lived next door to the mom was there all the time. Even now,yes later, every night they go to moms house to eat, mom cooks,babysits,cleans. They refuse to live separate lives even for a day, its driving the husbands crazy.

  32. LAK says:

    I think Kanye really missed the structure of family and the K Klub is fulfilling that need, especially now that he has a daughter with them.

  33. Pixi says:

    That’s not Kanye in the last photo, is it?

  34. My two cents says:

    There’s something weard and dysfunctional about Kim still living with her Mommy. Maybe her maturity level peaked at age her sex tape made her famous. I think Kim lives with PimpMom and Kanye just visits occasionally.
