Kanye West’s botched presidential campaign was “the final straw” for Kim Kardashian, according to Page Six.
Earlier this month, the outlet reported that West and Kardashian “are done” with each other after six years of marriage, with multiple insiders saying their “divorce is imminent” and that they are “in settlement talks.” Now, the outlet has insisted it was the “Power” rapper’s bizarre campaign rant last summer that caused the reality star to finally “end the marriage for the sake of her kids and her own sanity.”
Many will recall how in July 2020 West delivered a strange speech in which he accused his wife and Kardashian momager Kris Jenner of conspiring to have him forcibly admitted into psychiatric treatment after he tearfully admitted that the couple had once contemplated aborting their 7-year-old daughter, North West.
“Kim tried to bring a doctor to lock me up with a doctor,” West wrote in since-deleted tweets at the time. “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."
As we previously reported, rumors of Kimye’s impending divorce finally came to the surface this year as the couple’s relationship continues to crumble despite their attempts to save their marriage.
“Kim got Kanye to go up there [Wyoming] so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done,” said an insider, who added that Kim, who had expressed wanting to see West through his mental health issues in the past, has “had enough.”
