Kanye West went on another late night Twitter tirade in the wee hours of Wednesday (July 22) and made some wild allegations about the Kardashian family.
Not only did he insinuate his wife Kim Kardashian cheated on him with Meek Mill, but he also suggested mother-in-law Kris Jenner was a white supremacist, claimed he’d been trying to divorce Kardashian for a year and said the Kardashians were trying to have him committed.
As Kanye’s behavior grows increasingly more alarming, his family is clearly concerned about his mental health. Subsequently, Kardashian is speaking up about Kanye’s bipolar disorder. In a long winded Instagram Story post, the reality television queen shed a little light on what it’s been like living with a sick husband.
“As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder,” she began. “Anyone who has this or has a love on in their life who does, know how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye’s right to privacy when it comes to his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconception about mental health.”
Kardashian went on to clarify she has no control over his actions and confessed she’s struggling to get him the help he apparently needs.
“Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor,” she continued. “People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual themselves have to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.”
The mother of four went on to say she understands her husband is “subject to criticism” because he’s in the public eye and insisted he’s a “brilliant but complicated” person. She added the pressures of being a black artist who lost his mother make the “pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder” worse.
“Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his actions,” she said. “Living with bi-polar disorder does not diminish or invalidate his dreams and his creative ideas, no matter how big or unobtainable they may feel to some. That is part of his genius and as we have all witnessed, many of his dreams have come true.”
Finally, Kardashian pleaded with the public and media to “give us compassion and empathy” they need to overcome this episode.
Kanye has been firing on all four cylinders since he announced his intention to run for president on the Fourth of July. His first campaign rally in South Carolina on Sunday (July 12) ended up with Kanye in tears, crying about how he almost “killed” his first daughter North West by asking Kardashian to abort. He also spouted off false claims about abolitionist Harriet Tubman, bringing shouts of “C’mon on man” from the audience.
His latest Twitter vomit seems to have been the horse that broke the camel’s back, prompting Kardashian to finally speak out.
This seems like another publicity stunt. How come his bi polarness only comes out when it’s time to release an album or new clothes. I truly do not believe that he is bi polar, hes just an asshole egomaniac.
Well, this whole bipolar thing is more conplicated than you think. Due to the fact that bipolar medication decreases creativity, it is possible that ye skips it when in album or creativity-mode and triggers a psychotic episode.
Nah he’s been bi polar for a minute man, remember him ranting at the White House for Trump like 2 years ago almost now? That wasn’t around album promotion that was just him being a mentally ill lunatic. Maybe he’s just given more platforms to speak around album time and that’s when we further get to see his mental illness on display, or he really does go through bi polar episodes and tweets manically. Movies are going to be made about Kanye one day, believe that.
Man idk what you think about publicity but there has always been bad press. This is BAD PRESS. Ye crying on TV is not going to move album sales. Its highly possible the presidential bid was for publicity but there is no doubt we are watching a man meltdown in the public eye. Maybe its for attention, but that would only further confirm mental illness and wanting attention is way different than wanting publicity. And by the way, the very nature of bipolar disorder is you can’t control the symptons, the stress of putting out a project would easily make him act out. The thought that this is publicity is actually not very rational at all, the Kardashians for sure are not liking this and they love the spotlight. The only thing that really points to it being publicity is the track record of both west and Kim but they never jumped out the window quite like this…
Who wants to lick Nutella out of my asshole?
DAMAGE CONTROL
You can like or hate the chick but she’s actually right. If someone is an adult and they have a mental illness unless you can prove they are an immediate danger to themselves or others you can do anything. Even Kanye tweeted that Kim and Kris was trying to get him to see doctors. All this is just making a good case for her to leave him and take the kids and when that happens I think this dude is going to kill himself
Kanye has to walk a very fine line or she’ll use his diagnosis against him.
This actually Kim being a good wife by trying to understand Kanye.
If Kanye was an ordinary dude he still would be living in Chicago and made some mediocre songs that everybody would have forgotten now.
Kanye is that eccentric Genius type who made himself a billionaire.
I love how Kanye actually has FEELINGS and cries when talking about how they almost aborted their first child.
That one thing by Kanye probably saved thousands or tens of thousands of black and white children from abortion and that history explains why Kanye is against abortion and wants it to be more limited.
Dudes should be able to show their FEELINGS and women should be able to show their FEELINGS but it feels like nowadays if one shows their FEELINGS others think they have a mental problem.
NOT having FEELINGS is the biggest mental problem in USA.
Women have the right to choose an abortion if they do not to have kids. Theres millions of kids that never should have been born to fucked up parents unable to properly raise them
Like u idiotic man
Fact this young man is clearly out of touch
I sure hope he really has a strong support system within his family maybe his own people
Not with that marriage.
Well Said Kim but why would you have three more children with a man that is unstable , since you have a hard time getting him the help that he needs. I’m not knocking the children there here and they are beautiful. I pray for you and the kids.??? Its clearly that Kanye’s condition has worsened I hope and pray that he can get the help that he needs…..
Well said, the world needs more people like you. Stay blessed!
Oh, now she wants to acknowledge and step in … BIIIATCH get your man (husband) the much needed help he needs – PLEASE!
