West and Kardashian are parents to North, 8, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2. Even though the pair are currently going through a divorce, the SKIMS brand founder attended all of “Donda’s” listening parties.

That’s reportedly when [Kanye] West started changing his behavior, leaving [Kim] Kardashian confused.

It’s not certain what exactly caused the couple to drift apart, but “Page Six” speculated that West’s presidential run, Twitter rants, infidelity, and struggles with alcohol all strained their relationship.

In January 2021, “Us Weekly” said the “Keeping up with the Kardashians (KUWTK)” reality star admitted that West’s visiting his Wyoming ranch often also contributed to their marriage becoming distant.

During a previous KUWTK episode, Kardashian revealed how her husband would move to a different state each year. She confessed that she was left needing to keep things together so she could raise their children.

In August, another “Us Weekly” source claimed the KKW Beauty Founder was quite conflicted about how she and her children’s future would be like without West. The pair had been married for 7 years when she filed for divorce.

The February 2021 filing allegedly left West surprised as he hadn’t known how unhappy and lonely his wife was. That’s reportedly when West started changing his behavior, leaving Kardashian confused.
