Khloe Kardashian is showing off her much slimmer body on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine’s April issue. Inside the pages, the newly separated Khloe is very candid  with her mom Kris Jenner, who’s playing reporter for the article. The interview happened back in December just days before she filed for divorce from Lamar Odom. Inside the pages, she opens up about her very public family, going through the motions and her future. Check out the excerpts below.

On her relationship with her mom:

“I’m so blunt that people think you and I don’t get along. But when I’m talking to you like that, I’m speaking to my manager, not my mom. Kim tiptoes around you, but I’m very harsh. I would never choose the role of Momager. Just the (stuff) we put you through … I will cuss you out, then late at night think, I was so mean to my mom. If I was in your position, I’d say, ‘(Screw) you guys! I birthed you!’ It’s probably why you drink.”

On her family:

“We live in the public eye, so if one of us makes a mistake, it affects everyone. … I have a such a great support system here. We’re so judged when we leave these walls that we try never to do that to one another.”

On Kris and Bruce’s separation:

“There was no scandal. There was no bad blood. You’re just happier apart. You are nicer to each other now. You get excited to see each other at dinners. It makes me sad that people think Bruce is no longer a part of my life. I talk to him every day! I consider him my second father.”

On her personal life:

“Your life is meant for you to understand and process, not to make anyone else happy. Kim was so thrashed for her marriage and it not working out. If she wasn’t happy it took guts to say, ‘You know what? I can’t do this anymore.’ But you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. People hate us for showing stuff and they hate us when we say, ‘Fine, we won’t show it anymore.’ I don’t have any regrets. I wouldn’t change a thing. You learn as you go.”
