AceShowbiz - Kylie Jenner admits that she was "heartbroken" when her close friendship with Jordyn Woods hit a rough patch in 2019. In an interview for the November issue of Elle magazine, Jenner explained that the distance between them was necessary for their personal growth.
The breakup occurred following Woods' infamous kiss with Tristan Thompson, who was dating Jenner's sister, Khloe Kardashian. Jenner stated that losing her best friend at the time was a lonely experience, but she embraced the opportunity for independence and self-discovery.
"We've always tried to talk through things, so it's never been a full cold-turkey cutoff; it was needed distance," Jenner said. "Anytime something happened, good or bad, and I needed to call someone, it would always be her. To lose that person felt really lonely, but I had to go through that."
Jenner also acknowledged that she and Woods had become codependent and needed to spread their wings. "I learned so much, gained so much independence, and was there for myself," she shared. "It helped me grow up a little bit, because we were so attached at the hip. I think that in order for us both to grow, she needed to spread her wings and do what she needed to do as well."
In recent years, Jenner and Woods have gradually rebuilt their friendship, as seen in their viral TikTok videos together. Jenner has acknowledged that they now have a healthier distance in their relationship and talk more occasionally.
