Kanye West was spotted taking eight-year-old Saint out for dinner – notably without Bianca Censori, despite the rapper calling his wife “the most amazing step mum” a week ago

Kanye West has been spotted taking his son out for dinner – but his wife Bianca Censori was notably nowhere to be seen.

The 46-year-old rapper was photographed strolling through the streets of Los Angeles with his son, Saint. The father and son dinner outing came after the eight-year-old’s basketball game, which Kanye watched in support. While the star was dressed in a black hoodie and black trousers, his son walked alongside him in his athletic gear, holding a brown paper bag.

29-year-old Bianca was glaringly absent from the sweet family outing, despite Kanye recently praising her as “the most amazing step mom” in a gushing post on Instagram. Kanye shares four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian – North, 10, Saint, eight, Chicago, five, and Psalm, four and Bianca seems to have taken the role of doting stepmother in her stride, developing a close bond with the kids.

Just over a week ago, the controversial rapper expressed his adoration for Bianca in celebration of her 29th birthday, thanking her for staying by his side while “half the world turned their backs” on him. Kanye posted a close-up picture of Bianca and thanked her for always being by his side

“Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad fun iconic muse inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me and the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me,” he wrote in the caption.

The couple have only recently celebrated their first wedding anniversary – they secretly tied the knot in December 2022, mere weeks after the Gold Digger rapper’s divorce from Kim was finalised. Ever since announcing her relationship with Kanye, Bianca has been photographed sporting bizarre and revealing outfits and towards the end of last year, concerns were raised about what was going on behind closed doors. Sources claimed Bianca’s friends were concerned about Kanye’s controlling behaviour, with the star allegedly dictating what his wife wears, eats, says, and how often she goes to the gym.
