Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced – by mutual agreement. Nevertheless, the rapper should be "not happy" with the decision.
After almost seven years of marriage, Kim Kardashian (40, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians") filed for divorce. The official step is said to have been made by mutual agreement with his spouse Kanye West (43, "Gold Digger"), "but mutual agreement does not mean happy or ideal". This is what an insider said to the American "People" magazine. "It just means they're grown up with the whole thing."
West knew "it was coming", but it wouldn't make it any easier. "It's a gloomy day for him," said the source. According to his accounts, the rapper went to pastoral care and consulted advisors who would "help him through this situation". "It's tough for him and he's not happy, but he's come to terms with reality."
There was no going back after the presidential candidacy
There has long been public speculation about the couple's separation. It was officially confirmed on Friday (February 19) – and West seems to be looking for reasons how it could have come to this. People magazine quotes another source: "He's in this place of 'if only'. 'If only I had done this, if only I hadn't done that.' He's processing things. "
If you believe the statements of the insider, the rapper blames his presidential candidacy for the marriage. "He thinks the presidential candidacy was the drop that broke the barrel." His confused appearances, during which he divulged very private details about his family life, would have cost him his marriage. "Before that there was hope. After that, no more," says the insider.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West had been dating since 2012. In May 2014 they said yes. Their marriage had four children: North, 7, Saint (5), Chicago (3) and Psalm (1). The spouses want to share custody in the future.
