Kim Kardashian Reveals Troubling Truths About Kanye West in Podcast

In a candid appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast on October 15, 2023, Kim Kardashian opened up about the tumultuous aspects of her marriage with Kanye West, now legally known as Ye. She described the experience as marked by unsettling manic episodes that significantly impacted their family life. Additionally, Kardashian strongly denied previous accusations made by West regarding her allegedly kidnapping their daughter, Chicago.

Kardashian, a well-known reality television star, shared her experiences navigating financial instability and emotional volatility during her marriage. She revealed that during West’s manic episodes, he would give away their luxury assets, including expensive cars. “I didn’t feel safe emotionally or financially,” Kardashian explained, highlighting the unpredictability of their situation. She noted, “You didn’t know what you were going to get when you wake up, and that’s a really unsettling feeling.”

The issues surrounding West’s mental health, particularly his bipolar disorder, were discussed, shedding light on the complexities of their relationship. Kardashian linked his erratic behavior to this condition, providing context for the challenges they faced as a couple.

In response to a claim made by West in February 2022 that Kardashian attempted to “kidnap” their daughter following a birthday party dispute, she categorically rejected the assertion. “It’s not a kidnapping. It’s a divorce,” she stated. Kardashian emphasized that she has never barred West from visiting their children and has facilitated international travel as requested.

Kardashian shared that communication with West remains sporadic, and while their four children—North, 11; Saint, 9; Chicago, 7; and Psalm, 6—live with her full-time, it has been “a couple of months” since West last saw them. She clarified that she limits contact only when she perceives situations as “super unhealthy” for their children.

Co-parenting has proven to be a significant challenge for Kardashian. She remarked that she strives to maintain a stable routine for her children despite public narratives surrounding their family dynamics. “I just try to keep the kids’ best interests at the center of everything,” she told Vanity Fair.

Reflecting on her marriage, Kardashian described it as “toxic,” citing emotional upheaval and an unwillingness to change as key factors. The couple, who married in 2014, finalized their divorce in 2022. “I stayed as long as I could for the family,” she noted, adding that prioritizing her safety and mental health ultimately became essential.

The interview also touched on West’s 2022 music video for “Eazy,” which depicted a clay figure resembling comedian Pete Davidson being buried. Kardashian characterized this portrayal as “unfair and emotionally damaging,” especially given her relationship with Davidson at the time.

Despite the difficulties, Kardashian expressed no regrets about building a family with West and remains open to finding love again, seeking someone with “substance and emotional maturity.”

As of now, West has not publicly responded to Kardashian’s remarks. Previously, he has accused her of manipulating media narratives regarding their children and their relationship. Observers anticipate that West may soon address the latest revelations as they continue to gain traction online.
