Kanye West and Bianca Censori could be set to divorce after two years of marriage, which was plagued by controversy from the start – including a ‘compromising’ boat incident
Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s whirlwind romance has hit the rocks, with their two-year marriage reportedly coming to an end. The American rapper and his Aussie architect first set tongues wagging in 2022 when they went public with their relationship, and it’s been a rollercoaster of drama ever since.
According to a source close to the pair, they’re prepping to sign off on divorce papers any day now. This bombshell drops just 11 days post-Bianca’s jaw-dropping appearance at the 67th Grammy Awards, where she turned heads in a risqué transparent mesh slip dress.
Kanye, father to four, rocked up in a sleek all-black getup, while Bianca, following Ye’s prompt to “make a scene”, ditched her fur jacket and revealed a transparent mesh dress that left nothing to the imagination.
But as the duo seemingly cruise towards single life and prepare to go their separate ways, the Daily Star casts a glance back at their tumultuous love saga and Bianca’s fall for the rap mogul…
A source close to Kanye told Mail Online that their relationship was in trouble, with Bianca apparently holing up in their plush $35million LA pad, with a cool $5million parting gift lined up post-marriage. The ‘All Falls Down’ hitmaker tied the knot with the much younger architect in December 2022, hot on the heels of finalising his divorce from Kim Kardashian.
News of the unexpected wedding started buzzing in January 2023, but it wasn’t until an October leak of their marriage certificate that the union was confirmed, reports the Mirror.
The latest instalment in the bizarre story comes after Kanye’s 2022 release of ‘Censori Overload’, a track where he hinted that marriage was driven by a certain restriction, as evident in the lyrics: “And The Bible said I can’t have any more s** till marriage.”
Fast forward to August 2023, when Kanye and Bianca embarked on a lavish Italian getaway, making waves with a racy boat display. As they frolicked on the vessel, the hip-hop star mooned a crowd of stunned onlookers while Bianca knelt before him, an incident that earned the pair a ban from a Venetian boat rental company.
Later that same year, whispers emerged of Kanye’s controlling influence over Bianca’s life, dictating everything from her meals and workouts to her wardrobe choices. This reportedly prompted Bianca’s friends to stage an intervention in November 2023, urging her to “wake the f*** up” and shatter the illusion surrounding her marriage.
According to insiders, Bianca was beginning to see through the façade, recognising that she had grown distant from those close to her.
By August 2024, murmurs of a split began circulating, with TMZ sources claiming that Kanye had been sharing his desire to be single again with his friends. Compounding the issue, Bianca’s relatives allegedly raised concerns about her increasingly provocative public attire during a visit, adding another layer to the narrative.
A source went on to tell Mail Online : “Bianca started to see the relationship in a new light when her friends and family voiced concerns about the way she was dressing in public and Kanye felt that she wasn’t as into him as she was in the beginning. There are no hard feelings, but she couldn’t ignore her family when they asked her to explain the stranger parts of their relationship.”
However, another insider slammed the break up claims as a mere publicity stunt, telling: “They knew that, by doing this, it would create some buzz and make them relevant as he tries to promote his new album. They both know that people are just over them and that her naked outfits are not enough to keep people interested. Everyone has seen her naked now there is nothing to wonder about.”
Scoffing at rumours, the couple were spotted together in Japan in October, putting to bed any whispers about rocky roads. That same week, on The Download podcast, Kanye bragged about Bianca, saying: “Number one b***. My b*** is the most influential b**** on the planet.”
He even had a cheeky response of “Best underdressed” to the host’s compliment on Bianca being the “best dressed”.
Kanye later clapped back at gossip suggesting he hired a ‘fixer’ to shadow his wife during a supposed split. Allegations floated around that Ye had detectives on Bianca’s tail in Australia, but his team quashed those rumours to Page Six, labelling many of Rolling Stone,’s published allegations as “simply fantastical and false”.
Before Kanye’s romance with Bianca, he was briefly linked to Italian-American actress Julia Fox, 34. In her memoir, Down the Drain, Julia reflected on their short-lived relationship, which lasted less than two months.
Despite its brevity, the romance had a lasting impact on Julia, who described Kanye’s behaviour as a “weird, twisted game” that left her feeling “used” and “dirty”. Kanye exerted significant control over Julia’s life, even signing two of her friends as her stylists and dictating what she could wear in public.
On one occasion, he suggested getting her a boob job after dressing her in a revealing top that didn’t sit right. Julia, a mother to a four year old son, recalled feeling a loss of autonomy, with Kanye making decisions about her public image.
In her memoir, she wrote about the damaging effect of his words, which made her question her post-baby body.
