Kim Kardashian is opening up about a health scare that’s left fans concerned, revealing in a preview clip for Season 7 of “The Kardashians” that doctors discovered a brain aneurysm during a routine scan.
In the teaser, which debuted alongside the Hulu show’s premiere this week, Kardashian is shown undergoing an MRI before telling her family the news. Her sister, Kourtney Kardashian Barker, can be heard responding with a stunned “Whoa” as the moment unfolds on camera. Kardashian, 45, said doctors linked the finding to stress, explaining that they told her it had likely been there for years and wasn’t something she’d caused.
A brain aneurysm occurs when a weak spot in a blood vessel inside the brain bulges outward, similar to a balloon forming on the side of an artery. According to the Mayo Clinic, most aneurysms are small and don’t rupture, though a rupture can cause life-threatening bleeding known as a hemorrhagic stroke. As of now, no details have been released about the size or exact location of Kardashian’s aneurysm, or whether it will require treatment.
Kardashian reportedly consulted brain surgeon Dr. Keith Black, who requested additional imaging at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to monitor the condition further. She’s said the diagnosis has pushed her to try to manage her stress levels more carefully, a task complicated by her packed schedule juggling four kids, her business ventures, and law school, where she’s currently preparing for the bar exam.
The revelation comes at a hectic moment for Kardashian, who’s also promoting her new legal drama, “All’s Fair,” and recently celebrated her 45th birthday. In the same episode, she opened up about how her marriage to Kanye West had affected her health, describing feelings she likened to Stockholm syndrome during their time together and revealing that a separate condition, cirrhosis, used to flare up during that period of her life.
Kardashian hasn’t indicated that she’s facing any immediate danger from the aneurysm, and her openness about the diagnosis has been credited with drawing renewed public attention to a condition that affects a notable share of adults without their knowledge.
