If Kim Kardashian & Kanye West are actually getting divorced, I’m not surprised. I would also divorce the man that called my mom “Kris Jong-un” ?.

Kanye and Kim are living separately.
The couple has been living "separate lives" for some months now, after Kanye went on a Twitter rant about Kim and her mother, Kris Jenner, in the build-up to the US presidential elections. Since then, Kim and Kanye have spent very little time together, despite sharing a 'show of strength' on Instagram with them posing together at the ranch nearly three months ago.
Multiple sources with direct knowledge told TMZ that the marriage was in deep trouble for the last half of 2020. In fact, Kim was ready to pull the plug on the marriage at one point, but it was when Kanye was going through a serious bipolar episode, and she felt it was cruel to do it when he wasn't well.
They have been living separately for a few months ... with Kanye spends most of his time in Wyoming while she has been in Calabasas with the kids. They were absorbed in personal business projects and didn't focus on making any final decisions.
In 2019 Kanye West had revealed in that he has bipolar disorder.
Rapper Kanye West has always been in the news for a series of controversial tweets that he posted for his wife, Kim Kardashian (and deleted them). His tweets, needless to say, raised concern for the musician's mental health.

I cried at the thought of aborting my first born and everyone was so concerned about me... I’m concerned for the world that feels you shouldn’t cry about this subject.

In response to Kanye's tweets, Kim Kardashian posted a lengthy note on her Instagram stories. She asked for "compassion and empathy" for her husband's tweets, adding that the singer struggles with bipolar disorder.
"As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does knows how complicated and painful it is to understand. I've never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye's right to privacy regarding his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health.
