I?ve shared my thoughts about this Kim Kardashian-Kanye West situation enough times, I hope I don?t have to recap the whole damn thing. Kanye West, an unmedicated bipolar man, has been in the middle of a raging manic episode and, as it so often does, the whole thing is playing out publicly. The new wrinkle is that Kanye is tweeting and saying some sh-t about his wife, his children and his mother-in-law. This is all happening against the backdrop of the pandemic, where Kanye and Kim?s marriage was already strained and they?ve been living separately for much of the past three or four months. Kanye tweet-and-deleted something Tuesday night about how he?s wanted to divorce Kim for two years, and he insinuated that she cheated on him with Meek Mill. Kim likely has been visiting divorce lawyers, but she also took a moment to make a public statement about Kanye?s mental illness:
As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. Ive never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanyes right to privacy when it comes to his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health.
Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor. People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual themselves have to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.
I understand Kanye is subject to criticism because he is a public figure and his actions at times can cause strong opinions and emotions. He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder. Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words sometimes do not align with his intentions.
Living with bi-polar disorder does not diminish or invalidate his dreams and his creative ideas, no matter how big or unobtainable they may feel to some. That is part of his genius and as we have all witnessed, many of his dreams have come true. We as a society talk about giving grace to the issue of mental health as a whole, however we should also give it to the individuals who are living with it in times when they need it the most. I kindly ask that the media and public give us the compassion and empathy that is needed so that we can get through this. Thank you for those who have expressed concern for Kanyes well-being and for your understanding.

I?ve called Kanye an unreliable narrator of his own mental illness before, and I stand by it, but this just shows that Kim actually has done some reading and studying up on Kanye?s disorder. She has absolutely looked into what can be done legally and what she specifically could do as his wife when Kanye is in a manic state and refusing to be medicated, hospitalized or to simply accept help in any way. And she?s found that she can?t do very much, especially now that Kanye is attacking her and her family online and showing a deep distrust.
I find her entire statement classy (truly) and authentic if this is what we?re seeing publicly, think about how difficult this has been to deal with privately. What is happening with Kanye is not Kim?s fault, even though everyone wants to drag her. You can dislike Kim and that?s fine she?s not my favorite person, but I think she?s dealing with a difficult situation as best she can, and I respect what she says here and how she?s conducting herself in this particular instance. I think she genuinely wants Kanye to make healthier choices for himself and their children. It?s that simple. I also think Kim is truly trying to protect Kanye, and that she DGAF if people are dragging her.
?Sources? also went to People Magazine and said that Kim is ?trying very hard to be graceful right now, but shes finding it hard to do. She feels disrespected and that this is a slap in the face to her and her entire family. She understands his bipolar disorder, but that doesnt mean that she wants to be publicly embarrassed like this. Shes crushed. Again, it would not surprise me at all if they?re well on their way to being divorced by the end of the year.

Given Kanye West?s tweet-and-deletestorms this week, I think we should all be prepared for Kanye to truly live-tweet his upcoming divorce. I genuinely believe that Kim Kardashian has been done with Kanye for a while, and the pandemic just underlined the fact that she?s sick of being around him. His latest manic episode has been the straw that broke the camel?s back she did the ?supportive wife? thing and tried to get him help. He doesn?t want to be helped. And now he?s tweeting out sh-t about how she maybe fked with Meek Mill and how her mom is Kris Jong Un. So Kim is reportedly done:
Preparing for the future. Kim Kardashian is getting her house in order following Kanye West?s controversial comments about aborting their first child and subsequent Twitter rant.
?Kim has been meeting with lawyers to explore and talk about divorce,? a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
While the couple has had their ups and downs in the past, another source says she has ?wanted to make it work.? The insider adds that Kardashian, 39, hasn?t gone forward with divorce in the past ?because of their children.?
After the concerning tweetstorm, a source told Us on Tuesday, July 21, that the Skims creator is ?deeply upset? with her husband after ?talking about their personal life and for making matters that are very personal to them and their family public.? A second source added that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star has ?tried so hard to help him, but now Kim and her family feel as though he?s really crossed a line by talking negatively about them publicly. She feels helpless at this point.?
[From Us Weekly]
?But now Kim and her family feel as though he?s really crossed a line by talking negatively about them publicly?? I mean, given the fact that Kanye has had these kinds of manic episodes before, I would think that Kim, Kris and the whole family all understand the nature of his bipolar disorder. Of course, understanding the disorder is one thing they can still be hurt by what he?s saying and doing. And the way he?s lashing out of Kim and Kris in particular this week? it?s interesting because that part of it IS new. I think Kanye is kind of done with the marriage. And so it?s probably a good idea for Kim to talk to those lawyers. She could just get Laura Wasser again? She used Wasser for her last divorce, to Kris Humphries.

All week, ?sources close to Kim Kardashian? have been talking to every major outlet regarding Kanye West?s latest manic episode. Kim has been in LA as Kanye?s mental health has declined sharply for weeks, mostly as he lives and works in Wyoming. She did not join him for his South Carolina ?rally? over the weekend, where he talked about abortion and other subjects. Monday night, Kanye tweeted that Kim was ?trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock me up.? On Tuesday, sources confirmed to People Magazine that Kim ?has been trying to get Kanye help for weeks? but what do you do when a person doesnt want help? Kanye is in Cody because he doesnt want help. If he wanted help, he would come back to L.A. Sources also said that Kim?s family has been supporting her and trying to help Kanye too. Everyone involved is in a difficult position because, again, he does not want to be helped, so they?re ?talking to medical professionals for guidance.?
All of that set up another night full of manic tweeting by Kanye on Tuesday/Wednesday. These tweets had a different edge, as Kanye seemingly mocked Kris Jenner as ?Kris Jong Un? and insinuated that Kim had an affair with Meek Mill. He deleted most of the tweets but of course everyone got screencaps. Here?s the shady tweet about Kris Jong Un and Meek:
I mean? he is the one trying to divorce Kim? I think Kim should react to that as ?oh wow, here?s my escape route, he?s gonna divorce ME!? He also tweeted Drake?s name with a thinking emoji, which? I mean, I still believe Kim fked with Drake. I believe that more than I believe Kim fked with Meek. Oh, and white supremacy:

Following Kanye West?s absurdist, manic ?campaign stop? in South Carolina, the Kardashians mainly Kim Kardashian seemed to blanket the gossip media with anonymous statements. They ran to TMZ first, but Kim also went to Entertainment Tonight, with a source saying that Kim was deeply upset by Kanye?s comments about abortion: Kanye isn?t in a good place and isn?t listening to anyone trying to talk him into getting help. Kim is upset with Kanye for his rants yesterday, especially talking about the possibility of having an abortion and not giving birth to North. She knows this is something North will see when she gets older and that?s heartbreaking. I felt like Kim had largely tapped out of Kanye?s narrative, perhaps because there was nothing TO do unless Kanye understands that he needs to be medicated. Well, apparently last night Kim did try to bring a doctor to Kanye in his Wyoming Dome. Kanye live-tweeted it (most of these are now deleted, so I?m using People?s coverage):
In a string of tweets Monday evening, the 43-year-old rapper asked both Kim and her mom, Kris Jenner, to contact him as he claimed they were trying to lock me up.
Kim was trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock me up like on the movie Get Out because I cried about saving my daughters life yesterday, West wrote on Twitter, referring to his comments about North West during his first campaign rally over the weekend.
Kriss don?t play with me you and that calmye are not allowed around my children Ya?ll tried to lock me up, West wrote in one tweet, seemingly referring to his mother-in-law and her boyfriend Corey Gamble. A few minutes later, he added, Kim tried to bring a doctor to lock me up with a doctor.
If I get locked up like Mandela Ya?ll will know why, West wrote in another tweet.
Everybody knows the movie get out is about me, he also wrote.
A representative for Kim did not immediately respond to PEOPLEs request for comment.
[From People]
It?s kind of what I suspected Kim has been in LA this whole time while Kanye was flying back and forth from Wyoming to various ?campaign stops.? Kim was like ?I?m tired of this, please take your meds? and Kanye was like ?Harriet Tubman didn?t free the slaves!? After Kanye made an ass out of himself in South Carolina, Kim brought in a doctor and Kanye fought her on that. So? please stop putting this on Kim. It?s clearly all on Kanye.
Oh and Kanye really needs to stop talking about Bill Cosby being innocent, or how there?s some kind of plot against Cosby. Enough.

I believe a lot of somewhat contrarian things about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. ?Contrarian? to the gossip narrative, I mean. The gossip narrative is that Kim is controlling Kanye or not controlling him enough, that his mental illness is her fault and her responsibility, that she and her family use Kanye for fame, and that if Kim ever left him, her fame and finances would collapse. I don?t believe ANY of that. If Kim left Kanye today, she would be fine. Her businesses would be fine, and they might even improve. She would still be incredibly famous we would just stop calling her ?Kanye?s wife? and start calling her ?Kanye?s ex-wife.? That?s it. That?s all that would happen to Kim. I even think that given the extensive documentation of Kanye?s mental illness, Kim would not have an issue getting full custody of their children. Plus, she?s tight with the entire LA legal community through her late father. Basically, Kim could divorce Kanye and come out ahead in nearly every way.
So the question becomes, why hasn?t she left him? I don?t know, honestly. I think she cares about him and even loves him. I think they made some kind of deal in late 2016/early 2017 following his breakdown (which required hospitalization) in which she wouldn?t divorce him but they would lead mostly separate lives. We also know around that time, she did consult with divorce attorneys, but she decided to stick it out. And finally, we know that whenever Kanye goes through a publicly manic phase, Kim basically calls up TMZ and offers up thoughts and prayers.
Kanye Wests off-the-rails campaign stop Sunday in North Charleston, South Carolina may not only hurt Ye politically, he has concerned, upset and alarmed many of his friends and the Kardashians sources connected to Kanye tell TMZ. Our sources say those around him believe Kanye is in desperate need of professional help and is in the middle of a serious bipolar episode, but he wont listen to them.
Were told they also believe Kanye is tanking some of his businesses, if not all of them, with rants like when he went on about Harriet Tubman, claiming she did not free slaves. His family and friends know comments like these are the things that trigger boycotts.
Suffice it to say were told the family is upset that Kanye talked about Kims first pregnancy and how they discussed abortion, something he says he wanted. Then he blurted out that Kim might divorce him for saying that, but even if she does, hed thank her for having North. Its curious he mentioned divorce its usually a topic married folk dont say out loud unless its been discussed. Whether it was or not between Kanyes Forbes interview and Sundays rally you gotta think it puts a strain on the relationship.
BTW were told theres not much concern that Kanyes comments will adversely affect Kims businesses. Were told their money is separate and her and Kanyes brands are distinguishable. Finally, were told his family and friends are also upset because they feel Kanye is a distraction to what is a very important election.
[From TMZ]
Yeah. Kim hasn?t actually said anything publicly since this manic episode started. She did retweet his presidential announcement, and that?s it. Kim hasnt even been around him during this manic episode I think she?s mostly just tired of this, tired of being forced into the caretaker role for her husband, tired of trying to comfort him and not agitate him during his manic episodes. It would not surprise me at all if Kim really does file for divorce before the year is over.

Like nearly every Kanye West story, the backstory on his bipolar disorder is lengthy, contradictory and backed up by endless interviews and quotes. I won?t even attempt to recap, but People Magazine did a good one here. It is established by his words and actions that Kanye has been suffering with his bipolar disorder for several years. Personally, I would guess that his drinking and drug use in his 20s was probably an early attempt to self-medicate. Over the past five years especially, he just goes through very manic periods and they almost always play out in public, through Kanye?s social media, or Kanye giving interviews and making bizarre, outlandish claims, or what about the time that he seemed to be in some kind of ranting fugue state in the Oval Office?
Anyway, in recent weeks, Kanye has been going through another manic phase. We all knew that as soon as he announced his presidential candidacy via tweet, and then we were sure about it when he gave that God-awful interview to Forbes. Then TMZ got a tip (likely from a Kardashian) that Kanye was in fact ?in the throes of a serious bipolar episode.? As it turns out, People Magazine got a similar exclusive:
Kanye Wests announcement about his intention to run for president has come amid a new cycle in the rappers struggle with his bipolar disorder, a source tells PEOPLE.
Kanye has been doing well for a long time. In the past, he has suffered both manic and depressive episodes

The Quarantine Divorce is a real thing, with celebrities and non-celebrities alike. Over the past two months, we?ve seen a rash of celebrities filing for divorce during the pandemic. For the most part, I feel like those marriages were already on their last legs anyway, and the lockdown was just the final nail in the marriage-coffin. So it is sort of with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. For two solid months, we?ve heard about how they are not used to spending this much time together, how they?ve been ?arguing a lot? and ?at each other?s throats? and how Kim, especially, needs some fking space from Kanye. Well, here we go.
Kim Kardashian has told friends she ?doesn?t want to divorce? husband Kanye West as ending the marriage is a ?last option? for her. The A-list pair have been dogged by split rumours after reports of tension in lockdown and while the insider doesn?t deny there?s tension between the couple, friends think a formal split is the last thing on her mind.
?Things are tough between Kim and Kanye because they never normally spend this much time together, but she doesn?t want a divorce,? says the insider. ?She considers her marriage to Kanye and their family together a huge success she?s the only sister who is married and thinks of herself and Kanye as a power couple. The last thing she wants is a divorce especially because the public backlash after her second divorce was unbearable. What I think will happen is they?ll spend time apart in different houses but not divorce.?
The couple has been splitting their time between their $19m LA home and Kanye?s Wyoming ranch in lockdown with a source telling The Sun that the couple was finding spending so much time together tough.
[From The Sun]
?I don?t want the public backlash? is not a good reason to stay married. Neither is ?I still want to be part of a power couple.? But those reasons are on-brand for Kim. She just misses being able to keep Kanye at a distance and only seeing him here or there on her terms. That?s what their marriage has been like for years performative for the cameras, but they spend tons of time apart. She misses that. So she?ll try to recreate it with separate houses. And I assume she?ll encourage Kanye to spend more time in his dome in Wyoming?

Less than a week ago, we heard that Kanye West had suddenly grabbed the kids and taken them to his dome in Wyoming, leaving Kim Kardashian in Calabasas. I wondered about that. I wondered about the cover story of ?Kanye wanted Kim to have some time to herself.? This lockdown is no joke and I don?t even have kids, and I can?t imagine how Kim is managing in that bland home with four kids and a dome-obsessed husband. Turns out, there was a bit more to the story, at least according to Us Weekly:
Trouble at home. The coronavirus pandemic is testing everyone right now, and Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are no exception.
?Kim and Kanye have been arguing a lot during the quarantine,? a source reveals exclusively in the new issue of Us Weekly. ?Kanye is really getting on Kim?s nerves.? The 42-year-old rapper ? who Forbes recently named a billionaire, thanks largely to his Yeezy sneaker line ? has been ?focused on creating? lately, according to the source. As a result, the 39-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star feels like ?all the parenting duties are falling on her.?
Kardashian and West, who tied the knot in Italy in May 2014, are the parents of North, 6, Saint, 4, Chicago, 2, and Psalm, 11 months.
?Kim finds it frustrating that [Kanye] doesn?t ask her how he can help with the kids,? the source tells Us.
This is not the first time that the couple have hit a rough patch. In 2016, a Kardashian friend told Us exclusively that the E! personality had ?felt trapped? in her marriage ?for a while.? However, she was dedicated to ?being a supportive wife? on the heels of the Grammy winner?s much-publicized breakdown that November, according to the pal.
[From Us Weekly]
Yeah, I honestly still believe that Kim came very close to filing for divorce from Kanye in late 2016. Her marriage was struggling and she consulted divorce attorneys and really considered leaving. Is she going through another phase like that? Perhaps. I kind of doubt this is just about Kanye and their marriage though my guess is that Kim?s fleet of nannies haven?t been working during the lockdown and Kim is actually having to spend more time with the kids than she ever has in her life. Thus, the strain. But this is definitely something to keep our eyes on, post-lockdown. There will be a lot of people filing for divorce this summer.

Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian in Glendale last night. She went out to dinner with her mom and a few of her sisters. She was apparently so dressed up because she was filming an episode of David Letterman?s Netflix talk show? Anyway, I really dislike this color on Kim! It?s sort of a muted sunflower and? someone with Kim?s coloring should avoid it. Granted, it doesn?t wash her out as badly as I would have expected, but Kim has always looked much better in red and lavender, but she rarely wears such rich colors anymore. I also kind of think Kim is starting to gain a little bit of weight back, which makes me happy because her body actually looks better now. More proportional, you know? Less like a plastic surgery experiment gone wrong.
Meanwhile, Kim was in Paris a few days ago with Kanye West. They were there to check in with some of their favorite designers, like Jean Paul Gaultier. At Gaultier?s studio, Kim snapped a photo of herself in the mirror, trying on a Gaultier look, but check out Kanye West eating some KFC:

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West came out to the Vanity Fair Oscar party. Do you ever wonder if Kanye is actually well-received at these kinds of events? Yes, he gets celebrities to come out to his Sunday Service stuff, but what happens if he tries to prosthelytize at the VF Oscar party? While wearing a vinyl suit?? I wonder if A-list celebrities talk to Kim. Probably, right? At this point, most celebrities will probably say hi and chat with her. Kim wore this Alexander McQueen gown which looks like a vintage/archive piece. She paired it with Lorraine Schwartz jewelry and wet-look hair (gross). Kanye?s suit is by Dunhill.
