The Kardashian family definitely went through a rough patch toward the end of 2016, and now, we're seeing it all play out on Keeping Up With The Kardashians. Last week, we saw Kim get a call that something had happened to husband Kanye West, and now, the story continues. So what happened to Kanye West on KUWTK? In Sunday's episode, Kim handled everything like a total champ, even though her life had been a roller coaster during that time.

At first, the whole situation was a total mystery to her family, who had been told to give Kim her space until she was ready to talk about it. And then, when she was finally spending time with her sisters again, she still wasn't really in the mood to address it, but honestly, who could blame her? She's been through so much recently, and having to talk about everything going wrong couldn't have been easy.

According to a statement Kanye's rep made at the time, he was hospitalized for exhaustion in November, including a stay at the UCLA medical center. And although Kim didn't address the fact that Kanye was in the hospital, she did repeatedly assure her sisters that everything would be OK, and despite still trying to recover from her robbery in Paris, she seemed like she was handling it really well.

In fact, she never really said anything negative about the experience — just that she was tired. And when Khloe brought up how hard it must be for her, all she had to say was that it was part of being a wife. She's not wrong, but it's an awesome attitude for her to take in the face of something difficult.

Fortunately, months later, it seems like Kanye and Kim are both doing well — and hopefully, it stays that way. I'd definitely say these are two people who could use a break.
