Kim Kardashian shared an update on her relationship with ex-husband Kanye West.
The former couple wed in a lavish ceremony in Florence, Italy, in May 2014 but finalized their divorce just six years later.
In an interview with Complex published on Thursday, February 5, Kardashian, 45, shared where things stand between the pair now as they continue to coparent their four children: North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6.
“We’ll always be family,” the All’s Fair star said. “We both know that. We will be OK, and there’s so much love for our family. We want what’s best for our kids.”
Kardashian filed for divorce from West, 48, in February 2021. The exes finalized their divorce in November 2022.
According to the settlement, obtained by Us Weekly at the time, the reality star and rapper were given joint custody with “equal access” to their children. The documents also stated that West would pay Kardashian $200,000 a month in child support and be responsible for 50 percent of the children’s educational and security expenses.
Following their split, West moved on with Bianca Censori, whom he wed in December 2022.
The controversial rapper recently made headlines when he apologized for past antisemitic comments in a full-page ad published in The Wall Street Journal. He said he had suffered neurological damage caused by a 2002 car accident that wasn’t diagnosed until 2023. (He was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016.)
“I lost touch with reality. Things got worse the longer I ignored the problem. I said and did things I deeply regret,” he wrote. “Some of the people I love the most, I treated the worst. You endured fear, confusion, humiliation, and the exhaustion of trying to love someone who was, at times, unrecognizable. Looking back, I became detached from my true self.”
“One of the difficult aspects of having bipolar type-1 are the disconnected moments — many of which I still cannot recall — that lead to poor judgment and reckless behavior that oftentimes feels like an out-of-body experience,” he continued. “I regret and am deeply mortified by my actions in that state, and am committed to accountability, treatment, and meaningful change. It does not excuse what I did, though. I am not a Nazi or an antisemite. I love Jewish people.”
West said that in early 2025 he experienced “a four-month-long manic episode of psychotic, paranoid and impulsive behavior that destroyed my life.”
“As the situation became increasingly unsustainable, there were times I didn’t want to be here anymore,” he continued, noting that his wife encouraged him to get help.
West wrote, “My words as a leader in my community have real global impact and influence. In my mania, I lost complete sight of that.”
“As I find my new baseline and new center through an effective regime of medication, therapy, exercise and clean living, I have newfound, much-needed clarity. I am pouring my energy into positive, meaningful art: music, clothing, design, and other new ideas to help the world,” he went on.
West concluded, “I’m not asking for sympathy, or a free pass, though I aspire to earn your forgiveness. I write today simply to ask for your patience and understanding as I find my way home.”
