Kim Kardashian diagnosed with brain aneurysm

The 45-year-old disclosed the diagnosis during a teaser for the seventh season of her reality show The Kardashians (2022 to present), which premiered on Disney+ on Oct 23.

“There’s, like, a little aneurysm,” she can be heard saying in the clip, which appears in a preview of the season at the beginning of its first episode.

Kardashian's sister Kourtney Kardashian Barker appears to respond to the news, saying: “Whoa.”

Kim Kardashian, who has four children aged six to 12 with her American rapper ex-husband Kanye West, can be heard suggesting the aneurysm stems from stress. Footage in the teaser also appears to show her undergoing a brain scan.

Brain aneurysms are relatively common. About one in every 50 people has an unruptured brain aneurysm. Many people who have them are not aware of them because unruptured aneurysms typically do not cause symptoms.
