Kanye West and Bianca Censori Face Divorce After Grammy Controversy
Kanye West, the well-known rapper, and his spouse, Bianca Censori, are reportedly on the verge of divorcing just days following her appearance at the Grammy Awards.
Married in December 2022, sources claim that the couple has tentatively agreed on a $5 million settlement for Censori as their relationship comes to an end.
TMZ has verified through insider sources that the couple has indeed separated, and formal divorce proceedings are anticipated soon.
While Censori is currently residing in their luxurious $35 million Beverly Park North home in Los Angeles, West’s whereabouts remain uncertain.
Reports from outlets like Daily Mail indicate he might be heading back to Tokyo, where he has been living for a significant part of the last year.
Following Censori’s awkward appearance at the Grammys on February 2, speculation arose about the couple’s relationship. During the event, she appeared uneasy as West allegedly told her to remove her fur coat and attract attention on the red carpet.
Insiders have noted that West viewed this moment as a form of “art,” intending to echo the aesthetic of his forthcoming album “Vultures 2.” However, Censori seemed less than enthusiastic about the idea.
Adding to these concerns, a lip reader analyzed their interaction on the red carpet. They conveyed that West urged Censori to “start making a scene now” just before she took off her fur coat and showcased her sheer outfit. He encouraged her with instructions like, “Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you,” to which Censori replied with uncertainty, “All right, let’s go.”
This exchange has raised alarms regarding West’s control over Censori, causing various public figures to label her as a “hostage” and a “victim” of his influence.
Subsequently, Kanye addressed his critics on X, defending his wife’s actions at the Grammys and asserting his influence over her decisions regarding her appearance.
In the wake of rumors about their possible divorce, Kanye posted on X regarding the topic of “coercion.”
“Is the coercion,” he questioned.
He followed this with a screenshot defining coercion.
