AceShowbiz - Despite the controversy and drama surrounding them, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are doing their best to co-parent their four children following their divorce. In a new episode of "The Kardashians", Kim revealed that she hired a male nanny so their kids would have a male influence in their life.
"I do think that my household, and even in our family - it's, like, very female-dominated," Kim said in a confessional. That prompted the SKIMS founder to hire a manny, male nanny, because she "really wanted a male around that was gonna be picking him up and taking them to sports."
The 42-year-old went on to say that she was "scared" to tell Ye about her decision. "I was scared outta my mind to tell their dad that." Thankfully, Ye, who shares North, Saint, Psalm and Chicago with the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" alum, seemingly was not against it and even shared some advice with the manny on how to teach his kids.
Kim recalled, "When he was dropping off the kids, Kanye introduced himself, played two-on-two with Saint and him. [He] has been so nice to him and saying, 'Hey, if you're gonna help raise my son,' - 'cause he handed him the ball, like, really easily or something - and he's like, 'Don't do that. Make him go get it himself. These are, like, some of the rules that I would want.' And I was like, 'Oh, my God. Okay… That's great.' "
Fans had mixed responses to Kim's revelation. "Nah y'all tryna talk s**t but this is smart and innovative thinking on their behalf. Kanye is not always there and kids model what they see. It's a reason why we're seeing all these sassy boys in our generation.. they're copying behavior from their single mom," a fan lauded Kim.
Echoing the sentiment, someone added, "I think this is a dope idea actually. Especially being a single mother raising a son. Boys need to be around other positive male figures and it doesn't always have to be family or a mate." One other said, "This is smart, he's not replacing their dad he's just being a male figure for the kids while his dad travel for work."
Some others, meanwhile, criticized Kim's decision. "Let me replace a father figure with a male nanny. We get it," one sarcastically said. One other wasn't convinced that Ye was really cool with Kim hiring a manny for their kids, saying, "Let Kanye tell us himself he is kool with it."
