Updated 14/04/2022: Kim Kardashian’s Divorce Attorney Calls Out Kanye West When Discussing Complicated Divorce Proceedings
Kim Kardashian’s lawyer, Laura Wasser, has called out Kanye West, explaining how his social media presence has complicated the divorce proceedings, following the revelation that Kim Kardashian didn’t speak to Kanye West for eight months after she filed for divorce in February 2021.
When questioned about calling out an ex on social media, West immediately sprang to mind for the 53-year-old lawyer during an interview with Bustle.
“There’s no reason to come out publicly and make statements about somebody when you’re going through what ought to be a relatively private process,” she added. Hello, Kanye West!
‘That’s not the ideal way to go about things, particularly as a parent,’ she said of West’s activities.
When asked for advice on how to handle a divorce, she argued that people should not discuss private family affairs online.
She suggested giving out bland gifts over the next few months to avoid drawing unnecessary attention.
Updated 13/04/2022: Kim Kardashian Says Kanye West Was Was Willing to ‘dedicate His Life’ to Being Her Stylist
According to Kardashian, her now-ex-husband West offered to give up his music career in exchange for a job as her full-time stylist.
The CEO of SKIMS shared that S.K.Y.E. wants to “leave everything and dedicate his life to becoming my stylist” on the first episode of the Kardashians’ reality program on Hulu.
While shopping for outfits to wear on Saturday Night Live, Kardashian confided in her friend the news that she would be dedicating her Fashion Icon award speech at the People’s Choice Awards to West.
Kardashian recently said that after filing for divorce from West in February 2021, they didn’t communicate for eight months.
She stated, “We went off and on,” during her interview on Dear Media’s Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. As a matter of fact, throughout the initial stages of the divorce, we didn’t communicate with each other for close to a year. And then we got back to chatting, and I went to see the Donda movie.
Separation of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West
So, he would still have contact with the family. Both he and I went silent for a brief period. And I anticipate the same to be true in romantic partnerships. At the end of the day, I want us to be a model co-parenting team.
“I look back and my mom and dad went through their horrible period and it took people a minute to readjust,” Kardashian concluded.
I’ve seen it all before, and I think the difference is that our platform is more advanced now. But just because he chose a particular method of expression doesn’t mean he isn’t a wonderful friend and human being. We’ll likely repeat that experience. While some may have given up hope, I haven’t.
She said, “We’re always family, we’re always going to have so much love and we adore our kids.” She and West, she insisted, still “have so much love for one other.”
In retrospect, we realize how much pleasure we took in our interactions. In all honesty, I believe that is something we will always have and value. While I accept that things don’t always go as planned, I try to focus on the good times instead.
She continued, “If you were in a situation and you were hurting and that was your way of expressing yourself like I don’t judge,” about West’s public outbursts about her affair with Pete Davidson.
Right now, it’s good,” she stated of her relationship with her ex. “When things are quiet, we don’t talk to each other very much. However, I believe that, sometimes, such behavior is acceptable.
I believe that we will succeed, too. We certainly will. Truth be told, I’ve always been like that. I devoted ten years of my life to this individual, and I adore him. So that will always be the case, but it doesn’t imply they’re perfect for you, and that’s fine either.

After their public argument, Kardashian said that deciding to focus on her happiness was a factor in the breakdown of her marriage.
In an episode of an ABC News special, Kardashian remarked about their divorce, “You want to take the high road and sometimes it’s hard.” This was about West.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been on his side whenever he’s told the truth.
The star of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” revealed her strategy for breaking the news of her separation and divorce kids North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 2.
Just be there for them, she advised other parents of young children. “You just have to have open communication with your children,” one parent advised another.
She explained, “Kanye and I have talked.
The kids need us to talk every day, so I’m sorry that it had to turn out this way. But, you know, Kanye and I will forever be family when it comes down to it.

Earlier today, on March 14th, West posted a photo of his daughter North West’s rucksack, which featured pins of himself, his ex-wife, and an alien. This was in my daughter’s backpack when I was “allowed” to see her last week. Because I am hardwired to provide for and defend my family, I make sacrifices I would otherwise not have to make. In my role as a family priest, ‘Don’t worry, North God is still with us,’ he said as the caption.
Please stop with this story, you were just here this morning picking up the kids for school,” Kardashian then replied in a comment that has since been deleted but has been reposted on the Instagram account @commentsbycelebs.
Updated 05/03/2022: Kanye West Opens Up About ‘suffocating’ Divorce
Just hours after Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s divorce was finalized, West posted a poem on Instagram in which he addressed the couple’s breakup.
According to his analogy, “divorce feels like full-blown Covid” and “divorce feels like your doctor doesn’t know s**t” respectively.
Divorce is described as “feeling like you’re walking on glass,” “feeling like you’re rushing through a glass wall,” “feeling like you’re getting beat up in the mall,” “feeling like you’re heavy breathing,” and “feeling like you’re suffocating.”
“Divorce is like having your teeth yanked out with pliers” The divorce process seems to be moving at a snail’s pace. When you’re going through a divorce, it feels like someone is hammering nails into your palms. You are what’s left of you, but you aren’t you anymore.

Updated 03/03/2022: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s Marriage is Officially Dissolved
Sky News has learned from reliable sources that a US judge has ruled Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s marriage to be legally terminated and that the reality star is now a “legally single” person.
As reported by Rolling Stone on March 2, Kardashian made an online appearance at the hearing in West’s absence while West was represented in court by his lawyer. Kardashian said “no” when asked if “counseling, further time, or assistance of the court” might save her marriage, and she reiterated her wish to be “restored to the status of a single person.” Since nobody argued against it, her request was approved.
West has not yet responded to the reports, but he did release a music video for his song “Eazy” in which he appears to be burying a cartoon man who looks suspiciously like Pete Davidson (Kardashian’s rumored boyfriend) alive. God saved me from the crash so I can kick Pete Davidson’s ass is another lyric in the song.
Updated 25/02/2022: Kim Kardashian Requests to Have Her Divorce Terminated as Soon as Possible
Kim Kardashian has publicly supported her current boyfriend Pete Davidson against criticism from her ex-husband Kanye West. The rapper publicized the release of private messages between himself and the SKIMS founder on social media.
Now, after Kardashian reportedly questioned West’s decision to post their private messages on his Instagram account, she has asked a judge to quickly end her marriage to the rapper, citing “emotional pain” as the reason, NBC reports.
The declaration obtained by the media company begins: “I want a divorce badly.” Even though I’ve urged Kanye to keep our divorce quiet, he hasn’t complied.
‘Kanye has been releasing a lot of false information on our private family affairs and co-parenting on social media, and it’s been upsetting to me and my children. When the court officially dissolves our marriage, I feel it will help Kanye come to terms with the fact that our marriage is gone and put us both on a better path toward amicably co-parenting our children.
‘While I wish our marriage would have succeeded, I have realized that there is no way to rebuild our marriage,’ the alleged appeal went on to say. Though he still doesn’t agree, Kanye finally seems to understand that I want to end our marriage. I’m asking the court to reinstate my single status so that I can start healing and so that our family can start mending and moving forward with this new chapter of our life.
NBC News’ requests for comment from Kardashian and Ye’s representatives were not immediately met with a response.
We had previously heard that the reality star had sought the court to be declared legally single, but that this request had been opposed by West’s legal team.
The date of March 2 has been set for a hearing.
Updated 15/02/2022: Kanye West Reportedly Shares Screenshots of Messages From Kim Kardashian
After Kim Kardashian’reassuring’ fans that her decision to put her own needs ahead of those of her family’s ‘triggered’ their split, Kanye West posted a photo collage of the former couple and their four children on Instagram. His caption stated, “God, please reunite our family.”
The Daily Mail has now revealed that in the days following his post, West went public with a series of texts sent to him by his estranged wife. The texts seem to express the businesswoman’s desire for West to stop endangering her rumored boyfriend, Pete Davidson.
According to reports, the rapper, who just ended his relationship with actor Julia Fox, sent a message on Instagram on February 14 that appears to read, “Upon my wife’s request please nobody do anything physical to skete am going to handle the situation myself [sic].”
West reportedly received texts from SKIMS founder Kim Kardashian in which she warned him that “someone will hurt Pete and this would be all your fault” and that he was “creating a dangerous and fearful environment.”
This is scary and it doesn’t have to be because there are dangerous people out there, she seemed to add.
The ‘New Again’ rapper responded, “I will always do everything to protect you and our family forever.” And I listened to you and warned them to keep their hands off of Skete physically.
In an apparent response, the father of Kardashian’s four children said, “Cause I got a text from my favorite person in the world” after Kardashian appeared to question him why he couldn’t keep any of their discussions secret.
I’m your biggest supporter. There’s no reason I shouldn’t tell everyone!!!
According to the same media site, Davidson also sent the following message to West through text message: “… you as a guy I’d never get in the way of your children.” This is a firm guarantee. It has nothing to do with me how you choose to bring up your kids. I wish I could meet them and become fast friends with them.
West’s current feelings toward Kardashian aren’t the only signs of his love for her that have emerged recently. He not only told her about his big Valentine’s Day surprise in person, but he also posted a picture of it on Instagram.
He tagged the celebrity in a photo of a black truck with the words “My vision is Krystal klear” painted on the side. Flowers by the dozen were in the truck when it arrived.
West had previously remarked on the coat Kardashian wore on her date with Davidson, which he had reportedly purchased for the aspiring lawyer for $23,000 (£17,000).
He concluded his letter with the following: “I got this coat for Kim before SNL because I thought it was very meaningful and I have hope that we’ll get back together.”
West, who has been very vocal on Instagram in recent days about his romantic connections, has only four posts up at the moment.

West continued by saying he “needed to come back home” with his wife and their four children (North, 8, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2).
And if the adversary succeeds in tearing Kimye apart, millions of other families will begin to think it’s fine, too. ‘But when God brings Kimye together, millions of families will be impacted to understand that they can overcome the work of the separation, the trauma the devil has used to exploit to keep people in pain as people step over homeless people to go to the Gucci store,’ he added.

Clips of the reality star breaking down in tears about the state of their marriage have been featured on Keeping up with the Kardashians, reminding the world of the extraordinary circumstances surrounding Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s high-profile relationship and subsequent separation.
This season marks the 20th and last installment of the series. Fans have witnessed intimate moments like childbirth, relationship breakdowns, mental health challenges, and more in the lives of renowned families over the years.
In the most recent episode, the mother of four and her sisters take a vacation to Lake Tahoe, where Khloé Kardashian opens up about her sister’s private relationship struggles.

Following Khloé’s explanation, a flashback shows Kim sobbing to her sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner (who are also crying as their sister talks), saying, “I think he deserves someone who can follow his every move and go all over the place and move to Wyoming, I can’t do that.” This argument occurred shortly before the family left for Lake Tahoe. He ought to have a woman that goes along with him everywhere and does everything she can, but I can’t.
‘I feel like a f***ing failure that it’s a third f***ing marriage, I feel like a f***ing loser, but I can’t even think about it like I want to be happy,’ she sobs.
West has been primarily based in Wyoming, where he has a ranch and recording studio, for the past year or so. The SKIMS co-founder and his or her four children were frequently spotted in West, California, home to the Kardashians before the couple declared their impending divorce.

Kardashian has been seen wearing Yeezy trainers, created by West, in various photographs she has shared with her 214 million Instagram followers over the previous couple of weeks, implying (as many sources have) that their breakup is amicable.
Original story 19/02/21: Kim Kardashian Files For Divorce From Kanye West
Multiple outlets say that Kim Kardashian has finally filed for divorce from Kanye West after months of speculation.
The couple, who have been ingrained in 2010s celebrity culture thanks to PDA-filled music videos, high-profile public appearances on red carpets, and the fan nickname ‘Kimye,’ have had one of the most recognizable and high-profile unions in the world, and tied the knot seven years ago in Italy.
TMZ reports that Kardashian’s divorce from athlete Kris Humphries was filed by the same attorney, Laura Wasser (a renowned celebrity divorce lawyer, called the ‘disso queen’ by the celebrity news outlet). Neither Kardashian nor West has addressed the rumors in an official capacity.
Divorce proceedings will respect the parties’ prenuptial agreement, indicating that the breakup was amicable. Representatives for both Kardashian and the Los Angeles Superior Court have confirmed the accusations, as reported by Reuters.
Reports state that Kardashian wants shared parental responsibility for North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
After months of tabloid speculation and rumors about the couple’s relationship, reports of divorce have finally surfaced. West started a ‘presidential campaign last year in the run-up to the US election, and he got very upset while discussing his family and marriage at a rally. He afterward made some troubling comments on Twitter.
West reportedly apologized to Kardashian on Instagram for his behavior and thanked her for ‘always being there for him’ after Kardashian pleaded with her fans to be understanding of West’s Bipolar Disorder struggles. The UK National Health Service defines bipolar disorder as a mental illness characterized by alternating periods of depression and euphoria.
After becoming friends in the early 2000s (as seen on the mother-of-family four’s reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians), Kim Kardashian and Kanye West started dating in 2012. Two years later, they welcomed their first daughter North. In 2014, the couple tied the knot in front of family, friends, and fellow celebrities in a ceremony where Kardashian wore a couture Givenchy wedding gown.
