Kanye West‘s behavior, both publicly and behind the scenes clearly tore his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian, and their family apart … as evidenced in scenes recorded right around the time of his antisemitic attacks.
In a preview for next week’s episode of “The Kardashians” Kim sobs in Khloe Kardashian‘s arms — explaining the Kanye of today is not the one she married back in 2014 — and she’d do anything to try and get the old version of Kanye back.
While the preview doesn’t specify exactly which Kanye incident led to Kim’s breakdown, the timing of other events in the episode line up with when Kanye launched his online attacks, including a tweet where he claimed he was going “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.”
It was also in the middle of Kanye’s attack on Jewish people that their divorce, which she filed in February 2021, was finalized … so there’s also a chance she’s sobbing over the weight of the entire situation.

Remember, Kanye faced a TON of hate after his comments about the Jewish community — after his shocking tweet, he tried clarifying, telling Piers Morgan he only wished harm on Jewish people that did him dirty in the music industry … which really didn’t help.

He went on to deny parts of the Holocaust on Alex Jones‘ “Infowars,” bizarrely claiming to love Hitler — digging the hole even deeper.
What was most frightening about the whole thing was the minority of people who supported Ye in the wake of his comments, including a group of people over an L.A. freeway performing a Nazi salute and hanging a banner reading, “Kanye is right about the Jews.”
Ye was dropped from brands left and right — including billions in losses from Adidas — and was even named “Antisemite of the Year” by watchdog group StopAntisemitism … so it’s easy to see the pain and frustration Kim was facing during the downfall.
