Kanye West and Bianca Censori are allegedly ending their marriage just 11 days after her controversial appearance at the Grammy Awards.
Sources claim that the couple, who tied the knot in December 2022, have already reached a verbal agreement in which Censori, 30, will receive a $5 million settlement following the split. A source close to West, 47, confirmed the breakup, adding that official divorce proceedings are expected in the coming days.
For now, Censori is believed to be staying at their $35 million home in Beverly Park North, Los Angeles. West’s current whereabouts remain unknown, though some speculate he may return to Tokyo, where he spent much of last year.
Grammys stunt sparked tension
Censori’s appearance at the February 2 Grammy Awards, where she wore a sheer outfit that left her nearly naked, reportedly played a major role in the couple’s split. Sources claim West instructed her to remove her fur coat on the red carpet in what he saw as an artistic statement, intended to resemble the album cover for Vultures 2.
While some defended the move as performance art, others accused West of using his wife for attention. Censori appeared visibly uncomfortable, and the backlash was swift. However, West defended the stunt.
“My wife’s first red carpet opened a whole new world. I keep staring at this photo like I was staring in admiration that night. Thinking wow, I am so lucky to have a wife that is so smart, talented, brave, and hot,” he posted on Twitter.
He later doubled down, calling her sheer outfit the “best Grammys outfit of all time.”
In the days following the Grammys, West ignited further outrage with a string of offensive remarks. He went on an anti-Semitic rant online, declaring his admiration for Hitler and claiming to be a Nazi
As criticism mounted, West responded in a profanity-laced tirade, claiming he has “dominion” over Censori but insisting she was not being forced into anything.
“I HAVE DOMINION OVER MY WIFE. THIS AIN’T NO WOKE ASS FEMINIST ST. SHE’S WITH A BILLIONAIRE. WHY WOULD SHE LISTEN TO ANY OF YOU DUMB A BROKE
People say the red carpet look was her decision. Yes, I don’t make her do nothing she doesn’t want to, but she definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without my approval,
Since marrying West in 2022, Censori has frequently been seen in revealing outfits, sparking concerns from fans who believe she is being manipulated. The Grammy stunt further fueled speculation that she is under West’s control.
