Kanye West responds amid rumors of divorce from wife Bianca Censori
A spokesperson for Kanye West and Bianca Censori has spoken out following rumors in the press that Censori had 'had enough' and split from the rapper.
West - who now formally goes by Ye - is currently being sued by a former employee for alleged antisemitism and misogyny, has been dropped by his talent agency, sold t-shirts with swastikas on and has finally deactivated his Twitter.
As if that wasn't enough to focus on, rumors then arose about the state of his and Censori's relationship and a representative for the duo has since responded.

In news first reported by the Mail Online, a source 'close to the rapper' seemingly confirmed to the Mail the pair had broken up and were even about to file for divorce, with Censori allegedly set to receive a payment of $5 million.
Another 'insider' told Page Six: "[Censori's] had enough. The swastika shirt [he was selling] was the last straw. She told him that’s not who she is, and that she can’t be associated with that. He’s saying that he has dominion over her and then he’s selling those shirts. It reflects on her, and she doesn’t want any part of that circus."
They alleged Censori had told Ye she was 'completely done'.
And, not wanting any of us to get too worried about said 'source', a representative of Ye and Censori, Milo Yiannopolous, has since spoken out.
The representative told The Independent: "Ye and Bianca are in Los Angeles, about to enjoy Valentine’s Day together. Announcements about their private life will come from them directly, not unsourced rumor in the tabloid press.
"Is this the fifth or is it the sixth time the press has wrongly reported that Ye and Bianca are separating? I’ve lost track."
Well, if anything does happen between Ye and Censori, Ye won't be able to update anyone who cares on Twitter.
After posting several posts attacking the Jewish community and declaring his love for Hitler, Ye even went on to thank Elon Musk for seemingly allowing him to 'vent'.
"It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board. It was like an Ayahuasca trip," Ye wrote.
Friends star David Schwimmer - who is Jewish himself - took to Instagram after seeing Ye's post, writing: "This is so 2022. We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr. Musk.
“Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That’s twice as many people than the number of Jews in existence. His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews.
"I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that he identifies as a Nazi (which implies he wants to exterminate ALL marginalized communities including his own) or the fact that there is not sufficient OUTRAGE to remove and ban him from all social media at this point.
"Silence is complicity."
Musk later took to Twitter noting Ye's account was now classified as 'NSFW' and 'you should not be seeing that anymore'.
LADbible Group has contacted Ye representatives for comment.
