Kim Kardashian & Ex Kanye West Reportedly Spent Christmas Together & It Shows How Their Co-Parenting Relationship Has Evolved
After a messy public fallout, Kim Kardashian and ex-husband Kanye West may have finally made amends. According to TMZ, the exes reportedly spent Christmas together with their four kids North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 6, which may hint at a change in their co-parenting relationship.
Sources-in-the-know told the outlet that Kardashian and West were cordial as they enjoyed the Christmas holidays together and now have a plan to work together to co-parent. Additionally, insiders reported that West has been working on himself and “has spent a lot of time reflecting on his outlandish behavior earlier this year — which included praising Hitler and spewing antisemitism,” reported TMZ.
The insiders also reported that West doesn’t have a problem with North having her own Instagram account now. In fact, he apparently “loves how unique and creative she is.”
Entertainment Tonight also confirmed that Kardashian and West spent Christmas together with their kids. According to the outlet, Kardashian and West “have been co-parenting better” and “were cordial” over the holiday.
The ET source also said both parents are “on the same page” about North’s social media use. The insider said that West “loves how unique and creative North is. He likes how she shares songs of his and her sense of fashion.”
Earlier this year, the rapper claimed that his kids “have been taken from me” by Kardashian. In the midst of a vulgar and offensive rant on X, he wrote, “I DONT WANT TO JUST ‘SEE’ MY KIDS. I NEED TO RAISE THEM. I NEED TO HAVE SAY SO OF WEAR [sic] THEY GO TO SCHOOL AND WHO THEIR FRIENDS ARE AND WHOS [sic] HOUSES THEY SLEEP OVER WEATHER [sic] MY DAUGHTERS WEAR LIPSTICK AND PERFUME.”
The Grammy-winner continued, “ALL THESE RIGHTS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM ME BY THE KARDASHIAN MOB HULU AND DISNEY AND THE BIGGER AGENDA TO USE THE SELECTIVELY BRED BLACK CHILDREN TO BE PLATFORMS TO INFLUENCE BLACK PEOPLE.”
The All’s Fair actress denied those claims and opened up more about her relationship with West in an October appearance on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast. “It’s not easy, but I raise the kids, full time,” she said. “They live with me, and I welcome a great, healthy relationship with my kids and their dad, and I think he knows that. I push for it all the time, but I also protect them when it’s time for that. And it goes in waves and phases, and it’s a lot of work.”
During the interview, Kardashian admitted that West’s presence in their kids’ lives is unpredictable. The kids hear from them “whenever he’ll call for them and ask,” Kardashian said. She added, “It’s probably been a couple months since we’ve heard from him. They always knew that he had a big life traveling before and was always on tour and all of that, and that he lives in different countries all the time and loves to live all over the place. We manage it really well.”
“Look, it’s not easy no matter what, co-parenting with anyone,” she went on. “I think that the one thing that just gets me is that there’s this narrative that I keep the kids away from him. I’ve never once done that. There’s been so many times where I’ve been like, ‘Ah, I just want to show all of these texts. What are you talking about?’ Like, we just haven’t heard [from him]. I beg them to go hang out or things like that.”
It does seem like things are looking up, as West was spotted with Bianca Censori and two of his kids at Disneyland on Sunday. In photos obtained by TMZ, the Yeezy creator wore all black as he walked around the park with Saint and Chicago, riding the Incredicoaster, the Grizzly River Run, and other rides.
Hopefully this means that West will be around a lot more to spend time with his kids in 2026, for their sake!
