Kanye West reportedly can visit his four kids, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm, “anytime he wants” despite claiming his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, took them away from him.
“Kanye has been in LA recently for a few months and didn’t ask to see the kids aside from North until a week before he was leaving again,” a source close to the “Kardashians” star told the Daily Mail on Tuesday.
“Kanye can see the kids anytime he wants; there are no limitations, but Kim is very careful also to not put them in situations that are chaotic. Protecting her kids [comes] first and foremost,” the insider added.
Page Six has reached out to reps for Kardashian and West but did not immediately hear back.
West, 47, took to X earlier Tuesday to claim Kardashian, 44, had “taken” his children from him.
“Why is the celebrity world. Jay Z Beyoncé Kendrick Rihana [sic] [A&AP] Rocky included Trump Elon Why are you all watching and letting Kim take my kids from me in real time?” he asked.
“Yall wanna say I’m acting out cause of things in my childhood But I don’t get to be a dad.”
In a follow-up post, the “All of the Lights” rapper wrote: “I HAVE TO SUPPRESS THE FACT THAT MY KIDS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM ME AND EVERYONE JUST WATCHES.”
West tweeted that he does not need to just “see” his children but needs to “raise them” because he is a “great father to have.”
The Yeezy founder then claimed he had not seen his 9-year-old son, Saint, “this year” — despite Page Six obtaining photos of Ye shopping at a convenience store in Japan with Saint, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5, in January.
In March, West and Kardashian got into a war of words via text after he featured his eldest daughter, North, 11, on a song with Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is currently behind bars awaiting his sex trafficking trial.
Sources told TMZ that the Skims co-founder did not want North tied to the Bad Boy Records founder, 55. (Combs maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty to the charges.)
West then accused his ex-wife and the “Kardashian mob” of restricting his parenting abilities and compared their current custody agreement to “visitation” in “jail.”
“I DONT WANT TO JUST ‘SEE’ MY KIDS. I NEED TO RAISE THEM. I NEED TO HAVE SAY SO OF WEAR [sic] THEY GO TO SCHOOL AND WHO THEIR FRIENDS ARE AND WHOS [sic] HOUSES THEY SLEEP OVER WEATHER [sic] MY DAUGHTERS WEAR LIPSTICK AND PERFUME,” the Grammy winner wrote in a since-deleted tweet.
“ALL THESE RIGHTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM ME BY THE KARDASHIAN MOB HULU AND DISNEY AND THE BIGGER AGENDA TO USE THE SELECTIVELY BRED BLACK CHILDREN TO BE PLATFORMS TO INFLUENCE BLACK PEOPLE.”
Kardashian and West were married from 2014 to 2022.
