Mum put me on birth control at 14: Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian has revealed that her mother Kris Jenner agreed to put her on birth control when she was just 14.

The reality TV star, who made an appearance on 'Oprah's Next Chapter', explained that the decision, a bold move back then - and still now, came as a result of her desire to lose her virginity to her boyfriend of two years.

"When I did want to have sex the first time I was almost 15," the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.

She added that her liberal mom was open to discussion about the topic, and even got her on birth control.

"I was like, "I think I'm going to, or I want to," and she was like, "OK, so this is what we're gonna do, we're gonna put you on birth control," and she was like, really open and honest with me," the 31-year-old reality star added.

The revelation came as a surprise to the veteran broadcaster Oprah, who failed to follow up the question with little more than a 'wow' before moving onto the next question.
