In the past, Kardashian has also commented on how much of a resemblance her daughter shares with her.

She even once shared a theory about why the resemblance exists, even though Chicago was welcomed via surrogacy.

"I think I was so nervous to have a surrogate and to have that connection that God was like, 'I'm going to make her look just like you,'" Kardashian said during her appearance on Ashley Graham's podcast "Pretty Big Deal" in 2018, per US Weekly.

Kardashian added about her and Chicago's resemblance, "looks like, honestly, my twin mixed with Saint. It's the two of us in her."

The mother of four opted for surrogacy instead of natural birth due to medical advice, which revealed at the time that getting pregnant with a third child could lead to complications.

For Kardashian, co-parenting Chicago and the rest of her kids with West has come with its ups and downs over the years. The ex-couple agreed to a plan after they separated from each other, which they followed through with once their divorce was finalized.

Kardashian once spoke about the challenges, describing them as "really f----- hard," especially as West's social media antics often have a bad look on their children.

She also said that it's best for her kids to remain shielded from what happens online, as they are not yet equipped to deal with it.

"If they don't know things that are being said, why would I ever bring that energy to them? That is real, heavy, grownup s--- that they are not ready to deal with," the beauty mogul said during her appearance on the Angie Martinez IRL podcast in 2022, perPeople.

She added, "When they are, we will have those conversations. One day, my kids will thank me for not sitting here and bashing their dad. I could."
