Speaking to Elle magazine, the TV star said she has never felt “more confident” than now. She said: “The first part of my twenties was having children, learning what my personal style was and then losing it—not knowing how to dress, gaining 60 pounds for both pregnancies. ‘It took me a year to feel like myself again. At 27, I feel more confident and more like myself than ever.”

Kylie said that becoming pregnant when she was still a teenager was a shock, saying: “I got pregnant when I was 19. Having a baby really young was more shocking, maybe, because I saw these changes happening to my body—all these new stretch marks and things that I didn’t have before.”

In an interview with British Vogue, Kylie revealed that she didn’t plan to have her first child at that age. She said: “Stormi wasn’t planned. It happened, but obviously I knew that I wanted to have her. I wanted children so bad.”

Detailing her journey to motherhood, the mum-of-two explained: “I was 19 when I got pregnant, 20 when I had her… It was wild… Looking back at it, I give myself more empathy and grace. But when I was a teenager, even my family were like: ‘You aren’t that young.'”

She added: “I think maybe I carried myself [a certain way] or I’d already been working for 10 years. It didn’t hit me [straight away]. But it was a huge life change.”

After giving birth, twice, Kylie fell into a long period of postpartum depression. Stormi’s lasted a year… Aire’s around the same length of time. She said: “I’m going to be 27, and I’m finally feeling like myself again, and [looking back] I think, being pregnant, I wore sweatpants every day, I didn’t have time to figure out even some of the little things in my life, and then postpartum lasted a year. Mentally, it’s really hard. Hormonally, it’s really hard. I didn’t know how to dress.”
