Kanye West insists Kim Kardashian is STILL his wife & wants them to be together as her Pete Davidson ‘romance’ heats up

KANYE West insisted Kim Kardashian is STILL his wife and wants them to be together.

The 44-year-old rapper reflected on their marriage as the reality star’s “romance” with Pete Davidson heats up.

Kanye insisted Kim is still his wife

While appearing on the Drink Champs podcast on Thursday, the rapper repeatedly called Kim, 41, his “wife” as he reflected on their split.

After noting the public keeps saying the pair is “divorced,” Kanye said: “We’re not even divorced.

“This ain’t no joke to me.

“My kids want their parents to stay together.

“I want us to be together.”

He then said that the entertainment industry and media is against them as a couple, continuing: “If you look at the media, that’s not what they’re promoting.

“That’s not what they want.

“They want it to be a new episode, a new TV show.

“And then they have people all around in my wife’s ear.”

Kanye then slammed Kim’s publicist for encouraging their split, saying: “I don’t f**k with her.”

Kim and Kanye were married for nearly seven years before the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star filed for divorce

The former couple share four kids together: North, eight, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, two.

Kanye appeared on the podcast shortly after Kim began a new romance with Saturday Night Live star Pete, 27.
