Kaia, 24, told the outlet: “When something like that happens in a family, it kind of levels everyone.”
“I think thats also why I started to self-identify as the easy one and never wanted to ask for help. Because it felt like too much to have two children who were needing,” she added.
“My parents for most of our lives were very, very private and didnt share anythingâand now we have this absolute teacher, my brother, who says, Im gonna be very human for everyone. Theres only so much you can hide from the world. And trying to put a lid on something just makes the person feel like youre ashamed of them,” Kaia told Vogue, referring to Presley’s openness on social media about his mental health and drug use struggles.

“A. So you feel like youre not alone, because that is how I feel most of the time and I have a feeling that if I saw all of this, a lot of people will at least know that theres someone else goi
