After allegedly leaking private messages between himself and Kim Kardashian, Kanye West has now suggested he didn't want to have children with the reality TV star as quickly as they did.
West shares four children with Kardashian, who he proposed to in October 2013 after they first started dating in 2012.
The couple welcomed their first child, North West, in June 2013, and went on to get married in May 2014 before they decided to go their separate ways seven years later.
Throughout the course of their marriage they welcomed three more children, Saint, Chicago, and their youngest child Psalm, who arrived on May 9, 2019.

Following their divorce the former couple continued to co-parent their children, but recently West has been voicing his issues with the way the situation has allegedly played out.
This month, he featured in a lengthy interview with DJ Akademiks - which the rapper carried out while dressed in a black pointed hood.
During the conversation, West said he ended up in the situation with Kardashian because he had 'picked' her, saying: "Absolutely I did, that was my fault."

He then went on to talk about how quickly he and Kardashian had become pregnant, saying: "I didn't want to have children with this person after the first two months of being with her, but that wasn't God's plan."
His comments come after West shared screenshots on Twitter of what he claimed were his and Kardashian's private messages, captioning it: "This first screen grab shows that I'm not playing."
West shared the screenshots as he teased the release of his latest song, titled 'LONELY ROADS STILL GO TO SUNSHINE', which appears to feature disgraced rapper Diddy, his 26-year-old son Christian 'King' Combs, and 11-year-old North.

In an attempt to prevent North from being linked to the song, Kardashian is reported to have taken legal action to try and prevent the track from being released.
One message from West read: "I'm never speaking with you again."
Kardashian replied: "l asked u at the time if I can trademark her name. You said yes. When she's 18 it goes to her. So stop. I sent paper work over so she wouldn't be in the Diddy song. To protect her.
"One person has to trademark! We agreed when they were born i would get all of our kids names and trademarks. So no one else would take them."

West responded with: "Amend it or I'm going to war. And neither of us will recover from the public fallout. You're going to have to kill me."
In a previous interview conducted in 2016, West said he was 'extremely protective' when it came to North.
