Kim Kardashian revealed that feeling “emotionally and financially unsafe” was the decisive factor that led to the end of her marriage to Kanye West. The socialite shared how she experienced constant anxiety due to Kanye’s unpredictable behavior, such as reportedly giving away five Lamborghinis during a mental health crisis. This concern for her safety prompted Kim to file for divorce, which was finalized in 2022.
During a podcast interview, Kim expressed that the lack of stability in the relationship was a significant reason for her decision to end the marriage. Despite the divorce, Kim and Kanye maintain a positive co-parenting relationship for their four children: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
The strain in Kim and Kanye’s relationship was further exacerbated by Kanye’s public disclosure of personal matters, including discussing considering an abortion. Kim emphasized her discomfort with negative discussions about her family and stated that such attitudes were incompatible with their relationship.
Although their split was challenging, Kim credited her decision to divorce Kanye with leading to new opportunities in her career. She highlighted that significant projects emerged after the divorce, indicating that it was a positive step forward for her.
In a trailer for the upcoming season of The Kardashians, Kim hinted at a serious incident where someone close to her allegedly plotted harm against her. While the identity of the individual behind the alleged threat was not disclosed, previous reports indicated a social media post by Kanye that hinted at accusations related to this issue.
