After finalising his divorce with Kim Kardashian, Kanye West moved on with Bianca Censori, but one expert has suggested the former couple will always be connected

It seems like Kanye West and Kim Kardashian haven’t gotten rid of each other, with one relationship expert suggesting they will “always have a connection”.

They were once one of the biggest A-list couples around, but Kim and Kanye decided to call it quits in February 2021 when Kim filed for divorce. Once their divorce was finalised in November 2022, Kanye moved on with Bianca Censori and they tied the knot in December of that year.

Kanye has often taken aim at his ex-wife, but that didn’t stop Kim’s sister Khloe Kardashian from hugging the rapper when they reunited last week for his son Saint West’s basketball game. Relationship expert Louella Alderson believes Khloe’s behaviour around Kanye will have been influenced by her family.

Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Louella said: “Despite the turmoil and tension that has occurred between Kanye West and the Kardashian family in recent years, there will always be a connection between them as Kanye and Kim share four children together.” She said Kanye and Khloe’s hug could have been “a genuine moment of affection” between them after years of being family.

The relationship expert added: “Khloe has always been good at putting her personal feelings aside and focusing on the well-being of her family. This has been most evident in her relationship with Tristan, the father of her children. He cheated and lied to her on a number of occasions, but Khloe doesn’t talk badly about him and continues co-parenting with him in a positive way for the sake of their two children.”

She also suggested Khloe would have wanted to show a positive relationship with Kanye for the sake of his kids. The musician shares four children with his ex-wife – Saint, Chicago, North, and Psalm. Louella said: “Showing a united front towards Kanye in front of Khloe’s children and Kanye’s children could help create a sense of stability and normalcy for the children. It also sets a good example for them to see adults being civil and supportive towards one another.”

She continued: “When there is conflict or tension between family members, children can feel caught in the middle and may experience feelings of stress, confusion, or even guilt. For Kim and Khloe’s children, seeing them getting along with Kanye can help ease any potential negative feelings they may have toward their father or uncle. It also allows them to feel comfortable and secure in the relationships within their family.”

Louella also said Khloe may still view Kanye as a family member. “Despite their differences, Kanye is still part of the Kardashian-Jenner family and Khloe may see the importance of showing up for him publicly and supporting him as a friend,” she told us.

The expert added: “It’s possible that there have been conversations between Kanye and members of the Kardashian family where he has apologised and expressed his regret for any hurtful actions or words in the past. This could have led to Khloe feeling more at ease with showing him love and support publicly, as she may see that Kanye is genuinely trying to make amends.”

Despite Kim and Kanye always sharing a connection, Louella warned there are some instances when they will both need to step away. “There may be times when people like Kanye have caused too much pain and harm for a family to continue getting along with them for a period of time.

“In these situations, it may be necessary for Kim or Khloe to distance themselves from Kanye until he is able to make amends and rebuild trust. Boundaries are an important aspect of any healthy relationship, and it’s important for Kim to prioritise the well-being of her children and herself when it comes to her relationship with Kanye,” she said.
