Well, if Mercury’s in retrograde, it sure knows how to stir the pot—even when there’s no pot to stir. Just when you thought the Kimye drama had hit a rare moment of calm, along comes a supposedly explosive cease and desist letter from Kanye to Kim, full of accusations about their daughter North being left in a car during the Met Gala. Spoiler alert: it was totally fabricated. Seriously, if the stars can conspire to mess with our favorite celeb gossip this much, imagine what they’re cooking up when Venus flirts with Mars next week! But hey, in a cosmic twist as unpredictable as Kanye’s Twitter feed, both sides are calling the whole thing a publicity stunt — leaving us all wondering if this is yet another episode of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” or just the universe having a little cosmic chuckle. Pull up a chair and let’s unpack the real story behind the headlines, the false letters, and just what custody drama looks like when mixed with a dash of celebrity theatrics. LEARN MORE.
Contrary to initial reports, Kanye West didn’t send Kim Kardashian a cease and desist letter accusing her of leaving their daughter North unattended in a car during the Met Gala.
TMZ first reported that a cease and desist had been sent, alleging Kardashian violated their custody agreement by leaving North alone in a vehicle and exploiting their children on social media. However, TMZ later clarified the letter was a hoax, with sources close to Kardashian’s legal team dismissing it as a publicity stunt.
Kardashian’s attorney, Laura Wasser, hasn’t received any such letter, and representatives for West also denied any involvement with the supposed correspondence.
The debunked letter claimed West was demanding Kardashian stop posting photos and videos of their children online, refrain from involving them in public events without his consent and remove any existing social media content he hadn’t approved. It also included false allegations that Kardashian denied West access to their children and exploited them for personal or commercial gain.
The incident follows recent headlines about Kanye West and his current wife, Bianca Censori, considering legal action against a celebrity dentist, but there’s no connection to the custody situation with Kardashian.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were married on May 24, 2014, in a high-profile wedding held in Florence, Italy. They began dating in 2012 and got engaged in October 2013.
But after having four children—North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm—Kardashian filed for divorce from West on February 19, 2021, citing irreconcilable differences. Their divorce was finalized on November 29, 2022.
Following the divorce, they agreed to joint physical and legal custody of their four children, but West claims he rarely gets to see him, prompting him to lash out on social media on many occasions.
Shortly after West and Kardashian’s divorce was finalized, West married Censori, who herself has become a spectacle in the public eye due to her NSFW wardrobe.
