— KANYE WEST (@kanyewest) December 27, 2016
Kanye West posted this photo on his Twitter on Tuesday, seemingly trying to present a “happy family” image to the world, despite the fact that there are consistent rumors that Kim is thinking about divorcing him. Even People Magazine could barely put a bow on the state of Kimye these days, with sources telling People that while Kanye did come to the Kardashian-Jenner’s family Christmas party, Kim and Kanye barely interacted. But now sources tell Page Six that everything is fine between them. Sure.
Kim Kardashian’s marriage to Kanye West is in trouble after a tough year, according to insiders — but, they add, rumors that the pair are on the brink of a disastrous divorce are greatly exaggerated. While sources close to the couple tell us that relations between the pair are indeed strained after a traumatic 12 months, friends say the claim that their 2 ½-year-old union is over is “ridiculous.”
A guest at Kris Jenner’s annual Christmas Eve party — which had sent gossips into a tizzy because West was absent for some of the evening and Kardashian wasn’t wearing her wedding ring — says that the reality superstar was in good spirits throughout, and was later joined by Kanye. The couple spent Christmas Day with their children, North, 3, and Saint, 1, at sister Kourtney’s house with the rest of the family.
A source close to Kim Kardashian told us, “They are still a couple, there’s no discussion of a separation of a divorce. But they have absolutely had a tough year. They’ve been through a lot.”
Insiders point out that the absence of her wedding ring is to be expected, since Kardashian no longer wears expensive jewelry outside the house after she was robbed of her pricey baubles in Paris in October. But we are also told that the rapper is losing patience with the extended Kardashian clan’s never-ending whirlwind of drama, and has begun to separate himself from the reality-stardom-chasing side of the family. Insiders say that the marriage has also been tested by the fallout from the robbery and from West’s breakdown in November, after which he spent a week recovering in the hospital. Reps for the couple didn’t comment.
Um, wot? KANYE is tired of Kim’s drama??? Kim is the one who was a victim of an armed robbery, and she’s been doing everything to dial down the drama ever since. She’s gone dark on social media, she has barely left her house (or her mother’s house) and she’s reportedly in therapy to deal with the trauma. Meanwhile, Kanye has been ALL drama, what with public pronouncements about his allegiance to Donald Trump and actually visiting Trump in New York. Kanye has been attention-seeking, Kim has not. And despite Page Six’s sources claiming that the separation rumors are ridiculous, I still believe that Kim is plotting her exit strategy.

And we’re off to the races!
The Kardashians are indeed social climbing leeches, but Kanye just seems tiresome and self-centered.
yeah but he as self-centered as he is still no Kardashian. He actually does have talent and works his butt off. He also didn’t come from a privileged background. Even if you are rich now, there is a big divide between how you were raised based on the wealth of your parents.
They are both fame hungry and like drama. Maybe K let off it for now as she had to face the real chaos of this world inplace of the virtual one she so likes to control, but no question the drama is real with them both.
That’s funny because his life is never ending drama because of the crap that he says and does. He’s Kanye Kardashian. He fits right in with that family.
But he wasn’t before he had a baby with Kim.
I agree that Kim and Kanye are planning the exit from KUWTK and it starts with a move to NYC.
Yeah, Kanye Teapot meet Kardashian Kettle.
Also, he’s gotten a bit tubby! No bueno.
Meds can cause weight gain (I know firsthand). Good on him for doing what he needs to do to straighten himself out. I’m proud of myself for doing same years ago, despite gaining a few extra pounds.
Didn’t Amber Rose make some comment when they were fighting on Twitter about a year ago saying wait until the Kardashians are done with you and spit you out. Something like that. She knew it would happen eventually….
Amber was right but most all of us were considering the Kardashian track record of squeezing enough fame/attention from any person or situation.
Imma let you finish, but Kanye is the best dramatic person of all time.
Love this comment 😂
+1Billion.
LOL !
That’s rich.
Very rich. And the irony is to die for.
And I am team Kanye. We all say whatever about Kanye but look at the state on Kylie. Where is Kris Jenner in all this seeing her daughter look COMPLETELY UNRECOGNISABLE. Looks like she just had her butt done again. Yeah, so looking at it holistically, I am team Kanye!
Yep. Look at their eyes in the Xmas photo. He is the only one that doesn’t look pissed off. Even the kids don’t look happy. Maybe Kanye has his escape plan in the works.
It’s hard not to be Team Kanye, isn’t it? Kim has for maybe the first time had it hard, but it’s hard to pull out the sympathy because of the family’s past. It’s like the boy who cried wolf. And he’s destructive and may not be strong enough to be a good husband and father, but I truly think it’s chemical. Not pure attention seeking. I’m rooting for them because I hate to see a marriage end, but this one isn’t looking good.
Yes, I have to agree with you, Pansy. I do have sympathy for what Kim went through with the terrifying robbery, and I think Kanye probably wasn’t up to dealing with it in the aftermath as a strong and comforting spouse, yet I can’t help but see the truth in what you’re saying.
Agreed.
You can be #teamnoone
While Kim, herself, has not been attention seeking, there are many stories out there where “friends” have posted pictures of her. IMO, that way she can say she stayed out of the limelight, yet she still gets the attention. Also, on one outing she was wearing a simple gold wedding band – nothing ostentatious – so even that is off. We’ll see.
Yep! That was slick, having friends post pictures so she wouldn’t be forgotten while she got work done. I mean, coped with the effects of the robbery
I like you. Spot on.
Thanks! 🙂
Considering this report, Kanye is also planning his exit strategy. He is delivering to the public exactly the right words (he is done with Kim, the ‘fame whore’) and is avoiding taking any responsibility whatsoever.
I see another ‘man brought down by a horrible woman’ campaign on the horizon.
Nothing against celebitchy, I love you always…but today seems like a day of “water is wet” news.
The Kardashians are drama queens.
Kate doesn’t work.
Trump is an idiot.
Chrissy Tegen is on social media.
Then again, obvious news is better than that bitch 2016 taking more from us.
I’ll shut up now.
And Taylor Swift posted a video of herself doing the nicest thing for a fan to remind us all what a wonderful person she is.
Just to say Taylor didn’t post those vids the old mans family did… no swift fan but come on she did something kind for a WW2 veteran , I don’t care what her motives were she made his day, and from what the family said he’d just lost a daughter and this helped their first Xmas without her
Why bring Taylor Swift into this?
@SWAK I think it was to signify the “water is wet” theme the OP was talking about. Swift is featured a lot on this site.
I agree about Taylor Swift 100%! I can’t stand that self serving,no talent woman!
As for Kim And Kanye,well they have certainly not ever hidden the fact that they are narcissistic, so for me,all of this nonsense was expected, saddest part is all of the children in this family..The lessons they are learning via the adults in this circus..Just disturbing.
@Lynnie, now that you said that I can see it. Just seems anytime there is a Kanye thread, TS is brought up when she is not even part of the story.
That is one sad and depressing holiday photos. Jeez.
Kanye is a drama monster like no other. He’s the dramatic one by far.
I really hope they took another normal, smiling picture right afterwards to keep for their own family memories. Because if the only pictures they have are the sad doll, dead-eyed ones they post publicly, that’s going to be depressing AF to flip through as an adult. I mean, obviously North and Saint are screwed no matter what, but it would be nice to look back and know your parents actually smiled from time to time.
Those kids are beautiful. But that family is so crazy, I can’t help but worry about what’s ahead for them.
It’s beginning. So his sources are Page Six and the Kardashians have People and US Weekly. This will be ugly, but hopefully not for the babies.
PS- I have never seen a more miserable holiday photo.
Er, Kanye is the one with the drama. Say what you will about the Kardashians, their propensity for drama is on the minuscule problem turned overblown reality TV side, rather the deranged ranting and colluding with Trump side.
When something actually dramatic happened to Kim, she went dark.
Has Kim had more work done on her face?? The Daily Fail posted a photo of the girls , rob and kris in pjs in one previous Xmas, and the difference esp in Kim, Khloe , Kylie and Kendall was very obvious even when you take into account the changes age will bring with the younger two
Yes, i think in her case it is never ending. Kim i mean. It looks like shes backed off the fillers or whatever she was doing that made her face rounder. Now its closer to her original, longer face.
The first time she stepped out post “robbery” her face looked VERY different.
I think she got her nose done & took out her butt implants.
It’s an incomplete comment, really. He’s tired of their drama getting in the way of his drama. It should be all about HIM.
Kanye is ill. Let’s not forget that. He may be an @hole but he is still unwell
That’s an appropriate Christmas card, with the big ol’ bolt-ons half out as usual! No smile, botox frozen-face. Ugh. Drama? Didn’t he know all about the Kardashians before he “got” with Kim? Careful what you wish for …
Is that a mall Christmas tree? A cheap, tawdry mall Christmas tree?
And North looks like she is trying to hide her lips so they don’t inject them full of whatever crap Kim and Kylie have injected into theirs.
The Christmas tree is lovely. However, the people in front of it … (and I don’t mean the kids).
Kim barely has a nose now.
Anyway, yeah judging from this pic the divorce is coming in 2017.
Kim looks like a character from the Adams family Morticia?
They are ALL beyond tiresome!!!
Omg her face is so tweaked. Kim is just as much a narcissist as Kanye and living with her must be constant drama. These two are reaping everything they have sowed.
Actually, Kim looks nice from the front at least. Kanye looks unusually calm, but that might be a sign that he’s on the right dosage of any medication. It’s an odd picture with no smiles from anybody. But I think it was probably taken on the spur of the moment when everybody was in the same place at the same time. Kim probably just swooped up Nori before the kid could run off… It’s not a professional photo.
Team Kanye all the way. I feel bad that Kim was robbed at gun point but that doesn’t make her trauma any more important or worse than Kanye’s LONG STANDING mental health issues that she just chose to ignore ignore ignore until it all erupted in to a big can of worms that could no longer be contained. He’s no longer good for her now that he actually needs help and isn’t dissing people left and right, picking fights with a 20 year old and going on stupid rants. Kim doesn’t know what it’s like for ‘better of for worse’. Remember Kris Humphries? 72 days and she just ‘doesn’t want to be married anymore’. GMAFB. When Kris starts actually caring about her kids and not milking them for every penny they’re worth, maybe I’ll be able to find some sympathy for poor Rich Kimmy who cares more about her celebrity than her husband. I hope he files for divorce before she does to him what she did to Kris.
roflmao.
That’s all I got.
So we’re going to call the guy who was just hospitalized for days for a mental breakdown “dramatic”?
THANK YOU! I was coming here to say the same. Usually I love this site but or some reason the reporting of Kanye’s breakdown has really grated me, and I’m in no way a fan of his. It’s been treated as him being dramatic from day 1, with a hint of “how dare he do this after Kim got robbed?”. Newsflash: You can’t choose when you have a breakdown, his recent actions are probably related to his mental health issues too. I feel for the guy, seems the media won’t take his issues seriously because it’s mental and not physical.
He’s clearly been ill for a long, long time. Not to mention, while Kim herself has taken a step back from social media her proxies have happily filled the gap. Because the Kardashian brand IS drama. It’s fodder for their reality show, it’s feuds and snipes that drive clicks of their social media, it’s things that help build their images and profiles. They have one of the unhealthiest family dynamics and then Kim married a man who is clearly ill and has been for years, but she was fine with it as long as she got what she wanted.
Not to mention, Kim has taken a 2 month break from social media after a lifetime of overexposure. That doesn’t make her above reproach.
When people call him a dramaqueen do you really think they only refer to his recent breakdown? I mean hello kanye has been synonymous with drama for at least a decade. Hes clearly an attention seeker extraordinaire regardless of mental health issues. You can’t start blaming everything on his mental health . There are people with mental health issues or substance abuse issues that don’t behave in such attention seeking ways. He seeks controversy and to be at the centre of things again and again. He isn’t a low profile celebrity.The pro Cosby pro trump, misogynistic tweets for instance can’t be blamed on mental health issues. He was ranting about trump when he had the breakdown and the first thing he does out of hospital when presumably he had been medicated was to make sure he’s photographed with trump. A person who isn’t looking for drama or attention doesn’t do that. A person can be both mentally ill and have certain type of character. It’s slightly insulting to other people with mental health issues to blame his most offensive stunts on mental health. I have a friend who is bipolar and he never turns into a raving misogynist even on his worst days.
@Chelsea: but that’s supposing that his breakdown came out of the blue. It’s pretty clear that he’s been having VERY serious mental health issues for a long time – that’s not “drama” that’s illness. He may very well be a plain jerk underneath it all, but it’s very clear that he’s an ill individual.
And I’m just going to say, my totally unproven theory is that Kim was trying to cover up his issues because she liked the status Kanye gave her, and when she went out of commission that’s why he had a full breakdown. Not because it wasn’t there the whole time, but because it was just out in the open.
Tabloids always support drinking/drug user celebs (Charlie Sheen) but attack a person that has mental health issues they called him a “mad man”, but a drunk or drug user is the ultimatum dude in Hollywood, this is why celebs get depressed or suicidal because everyone are praising them instead of helping them with their problems
NEWSFLASH: People can be both mentally ill and jerks…they can also be attention seeking famewhores, full of drama & MENTALLY ILL…Have any of you actually known, much less lived with, someone who has bipolar disorder? How about two? I have. Two members of my immediate family in my twenties…unmedicated! SO please stop. FULL STOP. The level of manipulation would be fascinating if it wasn’t terrifying and chaotic to deal with. Kim is not a saint but I’m tired of the blame she receives for Kanye’s bullshit. She has two kids to think of now & I wouldn’t fault her at all if she divorced him. No child should be subjected to the whims of someone in a full blown maniac & delusional episode. At least I was an adult and could fend for myself. These are babies, a 3 year old and a 1 year old. They come first. Not some drama filled selfish stunt jerk like Kanye.
My issue is reducing his mental illness to “drama”. Though I don’t agree with you characterizing Kim as an innocent bystander. I have a bi-polar individual in my life as well, and you better believe I would never have had children with them – and Kim knew Kanye well for years prior to their romantic relationship. It’s been clear for a long time that he has serious issues.
@bridget
I don’t think anyone is reducing his mentall illness to “just drama”.
What people are saying is that you can suffer from a mental health issues and be a giant ass. The two aren’t mutually exclusive.
Just like all addicts aren’t abusive like depp, all mentally ill people aren’t attention whoring assholes like Kanye.
It comes with selling your sole to Satan.
I’m not gonna sit here and wish harm on someone who was just hospitalized after a breakdown.
In fact I think the more people keep running their mouths about all these rumors the greater the chance that this could end in suicide or another breakdown. Is that he price of fame?
I think people want something bad to happen so they can write about it and judge and make themselves feel better about their own lives that are probably just as crappy but not as rich.
I don’t get my jollies from watching people suffer. Its sick.
👏
I’m going to be superficial and focus on what Kim’s wearing…what IS it? Does she have to have the fake boobs propped up and out, even in a “family” holiday picture? The choker, the severe Cher-circa-1975 hair, the boots paired with a gold spaghetti-strap dress….WTF?
Yes! Wtf?!
Yeah Kim’s outfit is ugly af
That’s rich coming from the biggest dramaqueen music knows 😂
I was taught to LIVE and let LIVE ! HOW ABOUT JUS PRAYING FOR THEM ALL ! WE AS HUMAN BEINGS CAN’T CHANGE THEM .SO WE PRAY FOR CHANGE IN THERE LIVES AND STOP JUDGING THEM …. AS HUMAN BEINGS WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES.. MONEY IS THE ROOT TO ALL EVIL .. WE ALL KNOW $$$$$$ WILL CHANGE FOLKS .. I DO NURSING AND ONE OF MY CLIENTS TOLD ME I HAVE LOTS OF MONEY BUT WHAT GOOD IS IT WHEN I HAV POOR HEALTH? .. . SO LETS ALL SEND TONS OF PRAYERS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY. PRAYER IS THE ONLY WAY TO BRING CHANGE. GOD BLESS ALL MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS.
I’ll be #teamkanye if he has a legitimate mental illness. Otherwise, forget about it!
