Kim Kardashian And Mom Reportedly Clashing Over Kids Path To Fame Amid Kanye West Concerns

Kim Kardashian is reportedly at odds with mom Kris Jenner over how to guide her children's rise to fame.

While Kim wants to position her kids for long-term success in music, fashion, and film, insiders say Kris is pushing to keep the next generation rooted in reality TV. With the possible impasse between the mother-daughter duo, the tensions between Kim and Kanye West have only added to the pressure.

Kim Kardashian, who shares four children with Kanye West: daughters North and Chicago and sons Saint and Psalm, has reportedly beefed up school-run security amid concerns about her ex-husband's unpredictable behavior.

Kim is said to be mapping out a different kind of fame path for her children, one that is more on their own terms and less about keeping up with the family reality TV brand.

According to a source, "She's signing North up for photo shoots and voiceovers, and she's thinking up lucrative deals for the other ones, too. She wants the best for her kids, and unlike Kris, she's not pushing them."

That mindset reportedly puts her directly at odds with Kris, who has reportedly made it clear she wants the next generation of Kardashians to keep the family franchise rolling. 

However, Kim is not backing down. An insider tells In Touch, "They don't have to do this unless they want to, of course. Kris is fuming." The disagreement is reportedly escalating, with claims from those close to the situation that Kris feels Kim owes her after everything she has done to help build her career. 

"They're both so stubborn, it's gearing up to be a major collision course, and people around them are covering their eyes," the source added.

Some of Kris' concerns about Kim pulling her kids out of the spotlight may stem from the belief that Kim herself seems increasingly disengaged from the show.

With the mother of four expanding her empire and focusing more on business ventures, Kris is said to be deeply concerned about the show's survival if Kim decides to step away. 

Per The Blast, a source shared that Kris has been going "back and forth between begging Kim and trying to scare her" into staying on the family's Hulu reality series.

Kris is reportedly worried that "if they are no longer on TV, the big fear is that they'd lose their clout and, with it, a ton of followers and ultimately their earning power."

However, the insider adds that those threats do not always work on Kim. In their words, "When that's not working, she resorts to begging her and telling her that without her help, the whole family will lose what they've built."

The Kardashian empire might be hitting a turning point. Behind the scenes, the famous family is seemingly feeling burned out by the constant pressure to deliver headline-worthy content for their reality series, "The Kardashians."

Ratings are reportedly slipping, and sources claim there is talk that the show could be in danger of cancellation. But even with viewership dipping, the bigger issue may be internal. Filming has become a chore, not a priority.

"It's become tedious for all the girls having cameras trail their lives," a source said, noting that most of the family is now more focused on expanding their businesses and finding other ways to secure their wealth.

The series wrapped its sixth season in April and features matriarch Kris and her daughters Kim, Kourtney, Khloé, Kendall, and Kylie, along with regular appearances from Scott Disick, Travis Barker, Corey Gamble, and Tristan Thompson.

Kim may be stepping into her mother's shoes and quickly realizing how tough they are to fill.The Blast reported that before Kris began pushing to get her grandkids involved in their show, she was already enjoying watching Kim come to terms with how demanding it is to guide a young career.  

Managing North and balancing it all with her own packed schedule has reportedly left Kim overwhelmed and reaching out to Kris for help.

An insider revealed, "So, she's pretty happy that Kim's getting a taste of what it's like and how exhausting it is. Kim's already complaining about all the time it takes out of her own schedule, and she's asking Kris for her help."

Sources also said Kris sees this as a full-circle moment after years of pouring herself into her children's careers without much credit; she is excited to pass on her hard-earned expertise.

Kim has been doing more than just managing her empire and guiding her kids toward potential stardom; she has also significantly ramped up safety measures.

As she continues to navigate a rocky co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, The Blast notes that Kim has increased security around their four children: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, especially during school runs.

Reports highlight that the 44-year-old now has several armed security guards escorting her kids to and from their private California school in SUVs. Each morning, multiple nannies are said to accompany the children and often stay during playtime while the guards keep a close watch.

"Kim doesn't want a big fuss at the school; she wants the children to be as safe as possible, and she also has a crazy schedule," an insider shared. The reality TV star's decision comes amid Ye's unpredictable public behavior, which has raised concerns.

With Kim Kardashian holding firm and Kris Jenner refusing to budge, the battle over the next generation of Kardashian fame is just getting started.
