Kim Kardashian has little matchmakers looking for her perfect person.
The Skims founder recently clarified her relationship status, admitting she was single on the August 14 episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. The 43-year-old reality TV star explained that her four children have been playing Cupid ever since she’s been without a significant other. Speaking to host Jimmy Fallon, Kardashian clarified that while her kids may be ready for her to find a partner, she’s not.
“It’s so funny because my kids try to set me up. Like, they’re ready now and I’m not. They’re so particular,” she told Fallon. “Like they come home, they make lists.”
Kardashian’s last confirmed romance was with comedian and actor Pete Davidson. However, she shares her four kids – North, 11, Saint, eight, Chicago, six, and Psalm, five – with her ex-husband Kanye West. The two officially split in 2021, when the fashion muse filed for divorce from the Donda creator.
From football players to musicians, Kardashian has dated men from all different professional backgrounds. Of course, her children have their ideas of who they want her to end up with. “Saint wants me to be with any basketball player or soccer player,” she confessed.
Kardashian added: “It’s no, no, no. And then some of my kids want me to be with streamers. Like, they have lists and they try to sneakily set me up and I’m like, ‘Guys, this just isn’t what I want right now.’”
The Skkn by Kim owner sparked dating rumors with NFL star Odell Beckham Jr in September 2023. They were also spotted leaving the Oscars Vanity Fair party together in March 2024. Yet, neither of them ever confirmed their relationship to be more than a friendship.
In April, a source told Entertainment Tonight that the pair were no longer seeing each other. “Kim and Odell have been doing their own things lately. Kim is so busy and hasn’t been putting any pressure on herself to be committed to anyone or in a serious relationship. She is all about being a hands-on mom,” the insider explained.
They continued: “Kim and Odell have always been open and honest about their future, whether that be together or separate. They had a good thing and there aren’t any hard feelings on either side. They started as friends and still are. They will continue to be respectful of each other’s spaces, careers, families, and friends.”
Since then, Kardashian has appeared to be spending a lot of time with her four kids, celebrating their birthdays and taking them on camping trips over the summer. On August 2, the beauty mogul posted a carousel of photos with her children glamping the woods and riding kayaks on the water.
Most recently, she paid tribute to her youngest sister, Kylie Jenner, on her 27th birthday with a sweet post on Instagram.
“I want to thank the universe for blessing me with a sister as sweet as you. Your silliness, kindness and love are the greatest gifts I could ever ask for. Happy birthday, with all my heart you private little soul you,” Kardashian wrote, alongside images of the sisters embracing each other.
