Alex Cooper asked Kim Kardashian everything we've quietly wondered. We pulled the answers.

Kim Kardashian is easily one of the most famous women in the world — and with that comes never-ending prying eyes.

From her private life and parenting choices to her business moves and fashion decisions, Kim can't escape the avalanche of public opinion.

In a bold move, she's decided to face it all head-on in a tell-all interview with Alex Cooper on Call Her Daddy. Alex asked the questions we've all been wondering and Kim delivered.

Here's everything she discussed.

Why Kim Kardashian divorced Kanye West.

It's no secret Kim has had a complicated relationship with Kanye West since their divorce in 2022.

The reality star shared the impact of her ex's mental health struggles and how they contributed to their split.

"There was just a lot of things that I wouldn't deal with," she said.

"I didn't like the feeling of someone talking bad about my kids' grandmother, aunts — all of those feelings. If someone feels that way, then we shouldn't be together."

The Kardashians star said she felt financially and emotionally unstable in the relationship, recalling a time when Kanye bought and gave away five Lamborghinis during a mental health episode.

"I'd come home and they'd all be gone," she said.

"Then I'd come home again and at a different point, we'd have five more Lamborghinis and then I'd wake up in another episode, and they'd all be gone again."

"[You] didn't know what you were going to get when you wake up, and that's a really unsettling feeling," she added.

Factoring kids into the equation makes a separation even harder, Kim said.

"When you have kids, it's definitely harder to leave than it is to stay," she said.

"It changes everyone's life forever. You really have to take your time and wait and see if there'll be changes.

"But once you get to a place where you feel like it's not going to change or get better, then you have to make some serious choices on what you're going to do. That's a really hard reality to face."

Talking about the breakdown, Kim said she put her head in the sand when things started to go awry.

"People can say that there were signs and maybe I wasn't paying attention to them," she admitted.

"When someone has their first mental break, you want to be super supportive and you want to help figure that out and you want to really get into that with them and be there for them."

It's something people who have dated a spouse with mental health issues could relate to. But with Kanye not "willing to make changes", Kim thought the split would be "healthy and beneficial", especially considering her own well-being as a mother.

"Once my mental health starts to get affected and then I can't parent the way that I need to and I can't be present and focused," she said.

"There's got to be one of us that can. And I had to save myself in order to be a better mum for everyone. And I think when everyone's older, they'll be able to understand it and see that all."

And her message for anyone with negative feedback about her divorce?

"An over a decade relationship with four beautiful children is not a failure."

Co-parenting with Kanye.

As for what it's like co-parenting with Kanye?

"What do you think co-parenting with Kanye West is like?" Kim laughed.

"It's not easy," she admitted.

"I raise the kids full-time, they live with me. I welcome a great, healthy relationship with my kids and their dad, and I think he knows that I push for it all the time."

Kim noted Kanye hasn't seen the kids in a "couple of months" but she wanted to squash the narrative that she "keeps the kids" away from him.

Has Kim Kardashian ever been cheated on?

Kim was open in sharing she has, in fact, been cheated on before. The partner in question told her "long after" it happened, and Kim's response wasn't what you might expect.

"I just kind of was like, 'Huh, tell me more'," she said.

While Kim admitted a younger version of her might've let the "psycho side come out" and "go off" on her cheating partner, she's at a phase where she thought "what's the point".

Instead, she chose to stay with that partner after they told her.

"I was in a tough position. I didn't [leave]," Kim said.

"I don't think they were in a position to have shared that information. It wasn't like a healthy place. And so I kind of didn't know if I should take it seriously or not. I had to wait a time period to really assess and see what was happening."

How much does Kim Kardashian spend per year on glam?

Alex outright asked Kim how much she spends on her glam squad per year and we finally have our answer: $1 million.

Kim admitted while she doesn't really know how much simple things cost, she wouldn't be surprised if the total glam tally was at least $1 million.

"Below $5 (million)," Kim clarified.

"If I'm filming my show, then they pay for it. If I'm working, then they pay for it, so I try to get it all paid for so that I don't personally have to pay for it," she said.

Facelift rumours.

Kim finally addressed the rumours she kept her face covered because she got a facelift.

"That's insane," she said.

"I would absolutely love to show it off if I did, but no, I didn't."

Tom Brady dating rumours.

In true Call Her Daddy style, during a round of 'Confess or Text' Alex played f***k, marry, kill with Tom Brady, Pete Davidson and Kris Humphries — talk about a blast from the past.

It was one question Kim chose not to answer.

"I'll get in way too much trouble," she said with a smile.

Alex pressed on, begging Kim for a sliver of details about the Tom dating rumours.

"You have to tell me, how serious were you and Tom Brady," the host asked.

"Oh my god," Kim replied, laughing.

"Like a date?" Alex followed up.

But Kim didn't budge.

"I'm not going to answer that," she responded coyly.

Are Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble still together?

There's been speculation that the pair have split since they haven't been spotted in public together for some time.

When quizzed on the relationship, Kim said: "Isn't that a weird one, that it said that they broke up? I don't know where that came from."

Were Kim Kardashian and Travis Barker ever together?

Kim's older sister Kourtney Kardashian has been married to Blink-182 drummer, Travis Barker, since 2022, but the family couldn't escape gossip that Kim and Travis were together first.

Kim finally put the rumours to bed.

"No, I never have", she said when asked if they'd ever hooked up. "That really sucks that that has gone on. He dated Paris [Hilton], and we were all friends, and we'd all hang out."

Marriage plans.

Kim admitted her heart is open for love, and she would get married again if she met the right person.

As for having a big white wedding again?

"I think it depends on the person," Kim said.

At the moment, Kim said she's happily single.

"I feel totally content," she said, revealing this is the longest she's ever been single before.

Right now, her focus is on her family.

"I have like a life that requires a lot of my attention and my kids just really need me right now," she said.

"I'm there 24/7, I don't know how I would fit something else in, so I'm just not looking. It would have to be someone super special for me to — I've had all my fun, I've had all my phases so it's now with my babies."

However, it seems her daughter North is keen to play matchmaker.

"I think she just said to me the other day, 'Mum, you've got to get remarried. You're getting too old, and no one is going to deal with this'," Kim joked.

"She's like, 'Who are we going to set you up with? What are we going to do?'"

Kim actually spoke with designer Theirry Mugler about creating a bridal gown before he died at the age of 73 in January 2022. She said the dress never got made, but she wanted it in her archive for one day.

SKIMS' next business moves.

SKIMS is only getting started.

Kim shared her plans to launch a whole new sub-brand called 'Nike SKIMS' that will focus on sports products. It won't be a one-off collaboration, but a "continuous product in a sport category".

Plus, there's good news for KKW Beauty lovers — SKIMS Beauty is coming next.

"I loved KKW Beauty and then I sold the company, and then I bought it back, so I sold that to SKIMS," Kim said.

"We're going to bring back what works and we're going to make it so major and so great."

She's almost a lawyer.

For anyone wondering if Kim is still pursuing law, she actually just took the American Bar Association exam in July and will get her results in November.

In the words of Elle Woods, "What, like it's hard?"

We joke, because it actually was — so much so that Kim took four months off everything to focus on her studies.

"It was a lot," she told Alex. "I didn't work on anything else and I just focused on studying and I took it, and I'm hoping for the best, praying to God."

So, can we expect a Kardashian law firm down the line? Kim didn't rule it out.

"I would love to maybe work on a few cases and see if I like being a trial attorney," she said.

"I think that would be fun before I open up a firm. I think the ultimate goal is just to help as many people as possible."

If it's a fail come November, Kim says she's not giving up on her dreams.
