Kim Kardashian and Kanye West relationship and family news

Excerpts from the upcoming biography ‘Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created the Future’ by Jonathan Van Meter have provided new insights into Kim Kardashian’s relationship with Kanye West. Kardashian noted that West ‘absolutely changed’ her life by providing the confidence to enter the high-fashion industry and introducing her to major designers.

The biography and former production staff have detailed the volatility of their relationship. Executive producer Farnaz Farjam revealed that a 30-minute confrontation involving West, Kardashian, and Kris Jenner was filmed on October 28, 2020, during a celebration for Caitlyn Jenner’s birthday. During this argument, West reportedly criticized family members for their lack of support for his 2020 presidential campaign, a tension exacerbated by the family’s public support for Joe Biden. Farjam described West’s behavior as ‘egocentric’ and noted the incident was edited out of the ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ season 20 finale to maintain the show’s narrative focus, replacing it with a moment where Kardashian expressed feelings of personal failure to her sisters.

Additionally, Kardashian’s daughter, North West, has addressed online criticism regarding her alternative fashion choices, such as blue hair and facial piercings. During a TikTok livestream, North clarified that her piercings are fake and that her style is a form of creative expression, stating, ‘I believe in Jesus.’ Kardashian supported her daughter, noting that North has expressed interest in piercings since childhood and dismissing claims that her style is a reaction to her parents’ divorce.
