‘Kylie and I have had the opportunity to watch our older sisters go through marriages and relationships and breakups and all these things, and do them pretty publicly,’ she said. ‘

Addressing her sisters, she said, ‘And no offense to you guys at all, but I think it was personal preference from a really young age that I didn’t want to.’

She said that it ‘makes [her] life a lot easier and our relationship a lot better, to be completely honest,’ noting, ‘It’s a private matter, it’s not really for anybody else to judge or know.’
