In a much-anticipated interview with Variety, Kim Kardashian, the renowned reality star and businesswoman, finally broke her silence on the highly publicized feud with her ex-husband, Kanye West.
This revelation sheds light on her perspective and why she chose to remain silent until now.
During the interview, Kardashian expressed her utmost respect and understanding for Kanye’s challenging journey, stating,
“I have tried to be as respectful and understanding as possible.”
Despite her empathy, she highlighted the importance of making decisions independently of his mental state.
The public conflict between Kardashian and West ignited when the rapper openly criticised her parenting skills and budding relationship with comedian Pete Davidson.
West went even further, making inflammatory claims, such as accusing Kardashian of kidnapping their daughter, North.
While Kardashian admitted to attempting private communication with West to resolve their issues, he has consistently refused to engage in dialogue.
She remarked,
“I have tried to have an open and honest conversation with Kanye, but he has made it clear that he doesn’t want to.”
Kardashian emphasized her desire for peaceful co-parenting and raising their children together. Still, she stressed that it becomes increasingly challenging when West makes public statements jeopardising their family’s well-being.
The timing of Kardashian’s interview aligns with West’s recent ban from Instagram for 24 hours due to violations of the platform’s hate speech and harassment policies.
West had posted videos threatening Pete Davidson and making derogatory remarks about Kardashian.
The consequences of this ban on the ongoing feud remain uncertain.
Nevertheless, Kardashian’s interview demonstrates her resolve to no longer stay silent on the matter.
It remains to be seen how her newfound openness will impact the dynamics between the two.
In addition to the Variety interview, Kardashian took to her Instagram Story to share a statement.
In it, she expressed her focus on prioritizing the best interests of their children and appealed for privacy during this challenging period.
