Kim Kardashian is a real mood as she listens to break up track on scenic drive amid Kanye West divorce
Kim Kardashian was a real mood as she headed out for a drive in LA and blared out her break up playlist amid her divorce from husband Kanye West.
After months of speculation, it was confirmed on Friday that Kim had officially filed for divorce from rapper Kanye, who she has been married to for six years.
Neither have publicly commented on their split, but it looked like Kim was feeling all the post-break up feels, judging by her latest Instagram story.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was seen taking a drive and she filmed the view from out the window, posting it online for fans.
However, it was her choice of song that she chose to upload with – Driver’s License by Olivia Rodrigo – that would have no doubt grabbed attention, probably because it’s all about splitting up.
The lyrics pretty much say it all, with Kim sharing a part of the song that says: ‘All my friends are tired / Of hearing how much I miss you, but / I kinda feel sorry for them / Cause they’ll never know you the way that I do, yeah.
‘Today I drove through the suburbs / And pictured I was driving home to you / And I know we weren’t perfect / But I’ve never felt this way for no one, oh / And I just can’t imagine how you could be so okay, now that I’m gone / I guess you didn’t mean what you wrote in that song about me.’
TMZ reports that Kim is asking for joint legal and physical custody of their four kids – North, seven, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, one – and that divorce proceedings between her and Kanye are ‘amicable’.
Sources say that Kanye is ‘fine’ with the arrangement and he and Kim are committed to co-parenting together.
Kim has reportedly known that their marriage has been ‘over for a while’, with an insider telling E! News: ‘It’s got to the point where [Kim and Kanye] haven’t spent time together as a married couple in months. They’ve seen each other for the sake of the kids but have been living separately.
‘Kim knows the marriage is over. She’s known for a while.’ Kanye set up camp in Wyoming throughout his presidential run, while Kim stayed in LA. Neither have publicly commented on their divorce.’
Kim is currently in LA, while Kanye is based out in Wyoming, after heading there to set up camp during his failed presidential run at the end of last year.
As news of their divorce broke, it’s claimed Kim was staying with her sister Kourtney Kardashian, who is ‘really trying’ to be there for her younger sibling.
‘Kourtney has been trying really hard to be there for Kim this week. Kim was over at Kourtney’s on Wednesday, as the preparations [for Friday’s divorce filing] were being finalised,’ an insider told Us Weekly.
Rumours Kim and Kanye were divorcing have been doing the rounds since July last year, after Kanye broke down during his presidential campaign launch.
He claimed on stage that he and Kim considered aborting their first child North and later tweeted that he’d been ‘trying to divorce Kim’ for years.
At the time, Kim did not address speculation the pair were splitting – instead choosing to stand by Kanye and address his mental wellbeing.
