Kim Kardashian admits to 'drinking more' to cope with the pressure of her work schedule

Kim Kardashian admitted that she is drinking more now after avoiding booze for years.

The SKIMS founder, 42, opened up about succumbing to her vices with Queen of Wellness, Gwyneth Paltrow.

"I started to drink a little bit at the age of 42. Coffee and alcohol," Kim admitted on Gwyneth's Goop podcast.

"I feel like I just gotta let loose a little bit."

Kim, who is studying to be a lawyer, explained: "Cause why not, you know? I just feel like I work a lot and I focus… all day after school then it's like product meetings and testing things and packaging meetings and everything for SKKN."

"I just don't ever feel comfortable just laying around doing nothing. So my version of that has been to spend some time with my friends and have a drink and stay out a little bit later, when I probably wouldn't have done that before," she added.

When the actress asked Kim what her favourite tipple was she said: "It just has to be a little shot of pineapple and a shot of tequila,"

"I have two shots and I'm like so good. It's been fun."

A source told PEOPLE in 2018: "She's not a partier and it's just not part of her life," another source said at the time.

"Occasionally she'll have a drink, but she really doesn't like the taste of alcohol."

"None of the sisters do — and none of them go really crazy," the source added. "They're very conscious of their image, Kim especially. They don't like to lose control.

"Kim definitely had her years of partying, especially around the time she was friends with Paris. She also used to go to clubs every night of the week. Her life is completely different now."

Kim also said that she hasn't ruled out the idea of having more children after her split from third husband Kanye West.

Kim told Gywneth that she will 'never say never' about having more children.

"I would have to have someone in my life for a while in order to make that decision,'" Kardashian explained.

Speaking about her previous marriages, she confessed: "I feel, honestly, my last marriage was my first real one."

"The first one, I just don't know what was happening. The second one, I felt like I wanted to be married so badly because all my friends were at that place and that's where I should have been."
