The tumultuous post-divorce relationship between global icons Kanye West (now legally Ye) and Kim Kardashian continues to dominate headlines, with the drama escalating in late 2024 and early 2025. While the former couple finalized their divorce in 2022, their complex dynamic—centered on co-parenting their four children—has been anything but harmonious. Recent public statements from both sides have revealed a deeply strained relationship, moving from joint custody agreements to Kim potentially seeking sole custody amid Ye’s increasingly erratic public behavior and controversial pronouncements. This article delves into the most current, jaw-dropping claims and counter-claims that define their ongoing saga.
The core of the current conflict revolves around their differing accounts of co-parenting and the rapper’s controversial public remarks. Kim has been open about the immense difficulty of raising their children while navigating her ex-husband’s frequent social media outbursts and public rants. In a stunning turn of events, Ye recently made a statement suggesting he regrets having children with the SKIMS founder, a comment that has sent shockwaves through the celebrity world and directly impacts the sensitive custody storyline.

The Five Most Shocking Recent Statements Defining Their Split
The post-divorce narrative is no longer about reconciliation rumors; it is defined by deeply personal and often painful public revelations. The following five points capture the raw conflict between the ex-spouses in their most recent comments:
1. Ye's Shocking "Regret" Over Having Children with Kim
In one of his most controversial interviews to date, Kanye West made a jaw-dropping confession that has deeply disturbed Kim Kardashian. Ye admitted he regrets having children with Kim, stating, "I didn't want to have children with this..." This statement not only undermines the foundation of their previous decade-long relationship but also directly impacts the emotional well-being of their four young children. The claim was widely reported and immediately sparked speculation about Kim's potential legal response in the ongoing custody arrangements.
2. Kim’s "Stockholm Syndrome" Marriage Revelation
In a candid moment, Kim Kardashian opened up about her seven-year marriage to Ye, describing the experience as feeling like she had "Stockholm syndrome." This comment suggests a deeply controlling or isolating environment during their time together. Her description paints a picture of emotional distress, contrasting sharply with the glamorous, aspirational image the couple once projected. This insight provides context for her current decision to distance herself from his continued public controversies.
3. The Custody Battle: "80 Percent" vs. "Full-Time" Parenting
The most persistent point of contention is the division of parenting time. Kanye has publicly claimed that Kim has the children "80 percent of the time," a statement meant to highlight his perceived distance. Conversely, Kim has countered this by revealing she is essentially raising the children "full-time" and is "done co-parenting" with Ye, citing his lack of active involvement. She has also claimed that there are periods where Ye hasn't called the children for a couple of months, illustrating a significant inconsistency in his participation.
4. Kim Considering Stripping Ye of Joint Custody
Following Ye’s recent erratic behavior and controversial social media rants, Kim Kardashian is seriously considering a major legal move: filing to strip him of joint legal custody. Although the ex-spouses initially agreed to joint custody with "equal access" during the 2022 divorce proceedings, Ye's increasingly alarming public statements and his perceived absence from the children's lives are reportedly pushing Kim toward seeking sole custody.
5. Kim Finds Ye's Latest Outbursts "Unsettling" and is Ready to "Snap"
Kim has consistently expressed the emotional toll of the ongoing public drama. She has stated that she finds Ye's latest social media outbursts "unsettling" and has chosen to distance herself by not engaging with his controversial statements. Furthermore, the constant need to manage the fallout from his actions has left her feeling like she is ready to "snap," highlighting the intense pressure of being the primary parent while dealing with a highly public and unpredictable ex-spouse.
The Future of Co-Parenting and the Kardashian-West Legacy
The current state of affairs suggests a transition from a challenging joint custody arrangement to a potential full-custody battle. The children—North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm—remain the central figures in this high-stakes family drama. Kim’s push for sole custody is a direct response to her need to create a stable, protected environment away from the instability caused by Ye's public life and controversial comments.
For Kanye West, the ongoing custody issues are compounded by his public statements, which critics argue are jeopardizing his parental rights. His claims that the children are "raised by nannies" and "cameras" further fuel the narrative of a distant father, despite his occasional public pleas to see his kids. The court will ultimately have to weigh the joint custody agreement against the evidence of Ye’s sporadic involvement and the potential impact of his erratic behavior on the children.
The Kardashian-West legacy is now being written not by their wedding or joint fashion ventures, but by the legal and emotional complexities of their separation. As Kim continues to focus on her businesses, SKIMS and her legal studies, and Ye continues to pursue his music and Yeezy brand amid controversy, the world watches to see if they can finally find a sustainable, private co-parenting solution for their family.
