She went on explaining that the pressure she has faced her entire life has been oftet too much to bear. Khloé always felt the pressure and the life-long judgment to be perfect and meet others’ standards of how she should be.
She added that for more than a decade, every flaw and blemish she had has been micro-analyzed.
