Khloé Kardashian And Scott Disick Open Up On Why Dating Can Wait
Khloé Kardashian and Scott Disick have made a pact to put their kids first, leaving dating on the back burner until the time feels right. On the debut episode of Khloé’s podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, the pair got candid about how parenting influences their romantic lives.
Khloé, mom to True, 6, and Tatum, 2, shares her kids with ex Tristan Thompson, while Scott is dad to Mason, 15, Penelope, 12, and Reign, 10, whom he shares with ex Kourtney Kardashian Barker. Both stars are focused on their roles as parents over searching for a romantic partner.
“How are you with dating around the kids?” Khloé asked Scott, adding, “Like that’s separate. Or is it? Do you discuss that with them? Do they ask? Because they’re older, I imagine they’re asking.”
In response, Scott said, “Yeah, they ask me…they’d like me to be with somebody I think. And they do voice to me that they’d like me to be with someone. And I kinda say until I find the right person, I don’t really want to bring another person around unless it’s like the end all be all person.”
Scott explained his mindset further, saying, “Just cause I don’t want them to get attached to somebody else, but I have to do my thing too, or I’ll never meet anyone. But they’re all starting to get older and it’s not that much longer until they’re of age, all of them.”
Khloé wholeheartedly agreed, adding her perspective as a single mom. “So for the next 5,6,7, years, if my attention is on them, I have the rest of my life to be a single guy. Right now I like that my focus is on them. And if I was with somebody else, yeah, I’d still be a good dad but I would have somebody that I’d be putting on a pedestal near them,” she said further.
“But because I feel the same, I feel like my kids are…yes mine are younger than yours but they’re just my top priority,” Khloé said. “And I don’t care about dating. I don’t know what will happen in a couple years or next year, I don’t know. But I’m not dating, I don’t care to. My focus is on just my kids. But I think if I wasn’t in my situation, I’d be like, ‘You’re so full of s—.’ But I totally get it and to me, I think it’s the smartest thing.”
Scott echoed her sentiment, saying he doesn’t want to rush into anything, as he is not searching for someone just to be disappointed.
Khloé chimed in, sharing how dating has changed. “Isn’t it so hard to date now? I think it’s so different,” she said.
