Kim Kardashian will receive an eye-watering $200,000 (£164,000) in childcare support from her ex-husband Kanye West, after finally settling their divorce.

TMZ reports the former couple, who were married between 2014 and 2022, have finally resolved both child custody and property issues.

Both parties will get joint custody with ‘equal access’ to their four children; North, nine, Saint, six, Chi, four, and Psalm, three.

According to the settlement, Kanye, 45, will pay Kim $200,000 a month in child support, which is said to be due into her account on the first day of each month.

He’s also responsible for 50% of their kids’ educational expenses, including school fees, as well as 50% of their children’s security expenses.

It’s been claimed that if they disagree over matters relating to their children, they will attend mediation.

However, if one party fails to attend then the decision falls to the other person by default.

Kim and Kanye went public with their romance in April 2012, and got married in a lavish ceremony in Italy two years later, just months after the birth of their eldest daughter, North.

Kim, 42, filed for divorce in February 2021 after seven years of marriage and was declared legally single earlier in 2022.

Following their split, the Skims businesswoman went on to date Saturday Night Live comedian Pete Davidson for 10 months, with their romance ending in August. She is now single.

Kanye embarked on a whirlwind romance with actress Julia Fox. He is now in a relationship with social media star Chaney Jones, 25.

In September, Kanye compared the breakdown of his marriage with Kim to the death of Queen Elizabeth II, clearly still feeling hurt over the split.

Posting on Twitter in all caps, he wrote: ‘London, I know how you feel, I lost my queen too.’

More recently, the US rapper, who has legally changed his name to Ye, was locked out of the social media platform last month over antisemitic posts.

However, the app’s new owner Elon Musk reinstated Kanye’s account at the beginning of November. He will not be able to post, comment or send direct messages during this time, and content was removed from the account.

Metro.co.uk contacted Kim and Kanye’s rep for comment.
