Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori, are reportedly heading for divorce just 11 days after their controversial appearance at the Grammy Awards, where Censori appeared on the red carpet wearing a sheer dress that left her completely exposed.
Sources close to the couple confirm they have agreed on a $5 million settlement, with Censori expected to remain at their $35 million Beverly Park home in Los Angeles for now. Legal filings to officially end the marriage are anticipated in the coming days.
The split comes on the heels of intense backlash following their Grammy appearance on February 2. Witnesses say Censori appeared visibly uncomfortable when West instructed her to drop her coat on the red carpet, revealing her body in what he described as an “artistic” statement inspired by the cover of his Vultures 2 album.
Following the event, West posted on X (formerly Twitter), praising his wife’s bravery and creativity. “I keep staring at this photo, thinking how lucky I am to have a wife so smart, talented, and brave,” he wrote. However, the praise was overshadowed by a series of offensive and anti-Semitic rants in subsequent days.
West, already embroiled in controversy for previous remarks, reignited outrage by making inflammatory comments on X. He declared his admiration for Adolf Hitler, referred to himself as a Nazi, and released a $20 T-shirt with a swastika design, which led to the immediate shutdown of his online store by Shopify.
His comments drew widespread condemnation in Hollywood, with notable figures like actress Isla Fisher and Friends star David Schwimmer publicly criticizing his behavior.
Fans have expressed concern for Bianca Censori, who has been seen in increasingly provocative outfits since marrying West in December 2022. Critics accused the rapper of being controlling and using his wife’s appearance for publicity.
Addressing the backlash, West insisted that Censori’s choices were her own, although he added that she wouldn’t have made them without his “approval.”
As West’s erratic behavior continues to dominate headlines, Censori’s future remains uncertain. Meanwhile, the FCT architect is reportedly taking time to focus on herself following the whirlwind marriage.
West, who was previously married to Kim Kardashian and shares four children with her—North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm—has not made a public statement about the pending divorce.
While the couple’s split may bring an end to their brief but highly publicized union, it leaves behind a trail of controversy and unanswered questions.
