In a recent TikTok live video, North West revealed she has been diagnosed with dyslexia, a learning disability that makes reading difficult. “Guys, I have dyslexia. Do you even know what that is?” she said in the video before getting cut off by her mom Kim Kardashian who seemingly disapproved of the 10-year-old’s revelation. “Northy, you are sure spilling the tea on here,” the reality star said during the livestream. Little West, however, did not back down as she went on to tease an upcoming album. In response, Kardashian threatened to shut down the livestream. “I am going to get off this live right now because you are just saying way too much. I purposely don’t talk about stuff that you are going through,” the mom of four said.

While it appeared that Kardashian was only just protecting her daughter, the reality star turned entrepreneur has faced backlash from social media users who criticized her reaction to West’s confession. “Why doesn’t she want North to say she has dyslexia? That’s not tea and not something she should be ashamed of saying. It’s pretty common but often unfairly stigmatized b/c ppl act like if you aren’t a speed reader, then you’re dumb,” one person wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Kim could have used North’s announcement to actually talk about dyslexia & things that can be done to help those with it, while also helping to erase the stigma,” another person tweeted.
