North West, the eldest daughter of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star, Kim Kardashian, reveals she suffers from dyslexia.
The news comes as the 10-year-old went live, alongside her mother, on TikTok.

“Guys, I have dyslexia,” the 10-year-old said to her viewers during a live TikTok video on Wednesday. “Do you even know what that is?”
Kim Kardashian then interrupted her daughter before she could confess anything else. “Northy, you are sure spilling the tea on here,” the "American Horror Story" actress said.
Dyslexia is "a learning disorder that involves difficulty reading due to problems identifying speech sounds and learning how they relate to letters and words (decoding)," per the Mayo Clinic. "Also called a reading disability, dyslexia is a result of individual differences in areas of the brain that process language."
The two did not discuss the topic any further, but Kim did admit she “purposely” doesn’t talk about stuff the pre-teen is going through publicly, however, she did admit that North lived her life very independently just a few days ago on her reality show.
It should be noted, that Kim Kardashian chooses to include her children on the reality show and live streaming on social media. This is part of a huge brand the family is in, trading in information.
The SKIMS founder admitted that she makes sure to devote individual time to each of her children, however, with North West it is difficult as she likes to live her life as an "only child".
“I feel like North is like, lives her life like an only child, does her thing. Then the two little ones (Chicago and Psalm) are a year apart, so they're like twins almost and they're always together,” she explained, although North West and Kim Kardashian do share a TikTok account where they talk about various topics.
“So Saint loves the little ones, would love North if she would hang out with them, but she won't, so I wanna give him a little bit of attention,” Kim said of her eldest son, who she also called a “momma’s boy”, though now that he is growing up, she is trying to enjoy every moment with him before he gets into his teen years. “Like it's already he doesn't like me to kiss him goodbye at school anymore, and he gets so embarrassed and he looks around and sees where his friends are and quickly hugs me and runs, so we're already there,” she said.

The reality television star added, “I try to find what my kids' passion is, and do a trip with them. I've taken Chicago and her friends to San Diego. They love the zoos and the Legoland's and all that. Luckily, Psalm just tags along, you know. North loves Paris and fashion, so I took her to Paris."
Kim Kardashian is a mom to four children, North West, 10, Saint West, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm West, 4.
