Kim Kardashian is keeping a close watch on the troubling allegations against her ex-husband, Kanye “Ye” West, brought forward by his former assistant, while also growing concerned over his rumored plans to relocate out of the U.S. According to a source close to the matter, the potential move could add new complications to their already complex custody arrangement for their four children.
Kardashian has stressed the importance of a healthy co-parenting relationship
Speculation is mounting that Kanye is planning a move to Tokyo and might seek to renegotiate custody terms to allow their children to travel to Japan frequently to visit him. “Kanye has hinted at relocating for some time,” says the source. “He might aim to adjust the custody terms to include regular international visits.”
Despite a prolonged divorce, finalized in November 2022, Kardashian has stressed the importance of a healthy co-parenting relationship for their children: North (born June 2013), Saint (December 2015), Chicago (January 2018), and Psalm (May 2019). During an ABC interview with Robin Roberts in April 2022, Kardashian remarked, “I always want my kids to be happy and healthy and to think the world of their dad.”
However, Kanye’s rumored relocation has Kardashian concerned about potential disruptions to the family’s routines. “Such a move would create considerable logistical challenges for shared parenting,” the source explains. Kardashian is reportedly ready to “lawyer up” if Kanye moves forward with his plans, though she hopes to avoid that outcome.
Kardashian is grappling with recent
Additionally, Kardashian is grappling with recent, disturbing allegations against Kanye by his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta. Pisciotta has filed a lawsuit claiming “sexual battery”, alleging that Kanye served her a drink laced with an unknown substance during a studio session co-hosted by Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is now facing federal charges. Kanye’s attorney quickly responded to the accusations, calling them “entirely baseless” and stating that Ye will be “filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta.”
Beyond the case’s specifics, Kardashian reportedly finds the situation overwhelming. “It’s incredibly sordid and stressful,” notes the source, adding that Kardashian feels an obligation to stay updated for the sake of her children.
Adding to her concerns are reports of marital issues between Kanye and his current wife, Bianca Censori, which could further impact his ability to provide stability if he does move abroad. Between the legal battles, custody complications, and ongoing controversies, Kardashian faces numerous challenges as she navigates a complex future while prioritizing her family’s well-being.
