Kim Kardashian Opens Up To Oprah Winfrey About Kanye West [VIDEO]

It may have taken Kim Kardashian a long time to find the right person, but has she found it in Kanye West?

"I don't know why it took so long for us to get together," Kardashian says to Oprah Winfrey. "But I think I needed to go through all my experiences and some that he's gone through."

Kardashian and West met a decade ago, but the two have only been dating for the past few months.

"We met maybe almost a decade ago, I've known him for a really long time, we've been friends for like six or seven years," she says.

While many think that the relationship between West and Kardashian is a publicity stunt, Kardashian has seemed to find someone that she connects with.

"It's very comforting to have someone that knows everything about you, that respects you, understands, has gone through the similar things," Kardashian tells Winfrey. "I can really relate to his mother passing. He can really relate to my father passing. I mean, there's so many similarities in our life that ... I feel like I'm at a really happy, good space."
