Rolling Stone reports that West recommitted himself to Christianity in 2019 and kicked off a long-running series of performances with his choir, Sunday Service. Last year, on Christmas Day, the Kanye West-led gospel group released its debut album Jesus Is Born, which went on to the No 2 spot on Billboard's Top Gospel Albums chart. The album followed Jesus is King, the artist's ninth album.
There's no sign of Kanye West in Kim Kardashian's Christmas vacation photo.
Meanwhile, Some fans are concerned after realising Kanye West is missing in Kim Kardashian's family photo.
The photo—which the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star shared to her Instagram page on Wednesday, December 23—features nearly the entire KarJenner family on vacation in Lake Tahoe. And while some fans are tripped up over what looks like another photoshop fail (some are convinced that the eldest Kardashian sister, Kourtney, is photoshopped into the flick), others can't stop talking about how Kim's husband is notably absent.
Moreover, West appears to be missing from another family outing only lends more credibility to the reports that he and Kim are separated, but together. They are reportedly sticking with their marriage for the sake of their four kids, daughters North, 7, and Chicago, 2, and sons Saint, 5, and Psalm, 1, but they are leading independent lives.
