Kim has opened up about her tumultuous 12 months, saying she looks back at 2020 – the year that led to her divorce from Kanye – in a “positive way”.

Kim Kardashian is reflecting on the last year in a positive light.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, 40, recently opened up on Good Morning Vogue about the hardships she has faced over the past year and revealed that 2020 was “such a challenging year”.

“I think this year has been challenging for so many people but I also think that this year was a huge cleanse and just a huge opportunity for people to really be grateful for the simple things,” Kardashian said on Monday.

“That is a huge – I think awakening that some people had.”

Despite a tumultuous year characterised by the coronavirus pandemic and her divorce from Kanye West, Kardashian says that she looks back at 2020 “in a positive way”.

“I always try to look at things in a positive way,” she continued.

“Even though it has been such a challenging year, it’s a time to regenerate, get creative, spend so much time with family and just this time I’ve been able to spend with my children has been priceless. That part has been so beautiful.”

Kardashian’s thoughts come just one month after the Skims mogul filed for divorce from West after nearly seven years of marriage and several months of rumours throughout 2020.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, the reality TV queen is asking for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s four kids: North, 7, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 1.

West, 43, is reportedly not objecting.

The couple had battled over their sprawling Hidden Hills property in their divorce, but Kim was allowed to keep the mansion as the main home for their children.

The source added, “Kim owns all the land around the house, but Kanye had bought the house himself, then they split the cost of the renovations. Kim fought to keep the place because it is their children’s home, and she won.

“Kanye of course has his ranch in Wyoming, but he has recently been in LA recording and working so he comes to visit the kids regularly. But she’s not shuttling the kids up to Wyoming and back.”

Plus, the source added, the division of their finances in the divorce was easy because of their prenup: “It was an easy case of ‘You keep your money and I’ll keep mine.’”

Elements of the split decision are expected to play out on the upcoming 20th and final season of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which will premiere in Australia on Friday, March 19 at 11am.
