Kim Kardashian revealed a recent health scare involving a brain aneurysm and a diagnosis of esophagitis during the premiere of the eighth season of The Kardashians, according to reports from outlets including Page Six and NBC News.
A Hospital Visit and a Brain Aneurysm Discovery
During the first episode of the reality series, the 45-year-old Skims founder discussed a hospital visit with her sister, Kourtney Kardashian, where doctors discovered a small aneurysm in her brain, as reported by Unilad.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a brain aneurysm is a localized ballooning of a blood vessel caused by a weakened vessel wall. While many small aneurysms remain unproblematic, they carry severe risks if they rupture. On the show, Kardashian noted that medical professionals suggested stress likely triggered the condition.
Scans at Cedars-Sinai and an Appeal for Checkups
Kardashian later appeared on Good Morning America on October 28 to provide a personal health update to host Robin Roberts.
According to ABC News coverage, she explained that she underwent a Prenuvo scan followed by extensive brain scans at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. “Just tune in next week, but everything works out,” Kardashian told Roberts on the broadcast, emphasizing the importance of routine health checkups.
An Esophagitis Diagnosis and Family Echoes
Alongside the brain aneurysm update, Kardashian’s new season highlights a separate diagnosis of esophagitis. According to NBC News and USA Today, the condition carries a personal resonance for the reality star, drawing a parallel to her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr.
Navigating Co-Parenting Realities With Kanye West
The new season of The Kardashians also addresses family dynamics, including Kardashian’s ongoing co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, Kanye West.

According to Unilad, Kardashian addressed her past relationship challenges during an appearance on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast in October, noting the complexities of navigating major life changes while raising four children together: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
