US EditionEXCLUSIVE: Kanye West Wants Sole Custody of 4 Kids After Ex-Wife Kim Kardashian 'Exploited' Daughter North West for 'Commercial Gain' at Met Gala
- Kanye West sent a cease and desist letter on May 9, 2025, to Kim Kardashian's lawyer regarding custody of their four children in New York City.
- The letter follows their 2021 divorce and cites alleged breaches of their 2022 joint custody agreement, including limited access and misuse of North West's image at the 2025 Met Gala.
- Kanye claims Kim left 11-year-old North alone in a car during the Met Gala, restricts his access to their children, especially Saint, and exploits North commercially despite his opposition.
- He states he pays $200,000 monthly in child support, has not seen Saint this year, and asserts that Kim's actions violate their equal parental rights and harm their children's wellbeing.
- Kim's representatives dispute Kanye's claims, saying he rarely seeks contact and she never denies access, making the dispute likely to escalate into formal legal proceedings.
