Kim Kardashian has provided an update on her current relationship with her ex-husband Kanye West.
The reality TV star and the rapper, who now goes by 'Ye', began dating in 2012, following Kardashian's divorce from Kris Humphries, becoming Hollywood's biggest IT couple.
After welcoming their first daughter, North West, the pair married in a lavish wedding in 2014 before going on to have three more children, sons Saint, 9, and Psalm, 6, and their second daughter, Chicago, 7.
However, in 2021, they called it quits, with Kim filing for divorce after seven years of marriage, before it was finalised in 2022.

Since then, the former couple have been co-parenting their four children, and recently, Kardashian gave a shout-out to her West's Yeezy brand during a trip to Aspen, which she was asked about when sitting down with Complex this week.
In her TikTok video, the All's Fair star said: "I put it with these Yeezy boots. I will say, there’s nothing like a Yeezy heel. I don’t know if they ever made these, or just made them for me. I love when a shoe is tonal to the pant."
And when asked about her public show of support, she told the outlet: "We’ll always be family. We both know that. We will be okay, and there's so much love for our family.
"We want what’s best for our kids. I couldn’t deny the Yeezy heel, so I had to shout it out."
Complex further reported that Kim and Kanye had buried the hatchet over Christmas for the sake of their children.
And when appearing on her sister Khloé's podcast Khloé in Wonderland, Kim suggested that things were constructive between her and her ex.
Following Khloè's comment that her sister and West were in a 'much better place', Kim responded: "I'm a really empathetic person. I mean, at the end of the day, we're always family. I always look at it that way, no matter what's going on.
"There are times when I have to be super protective, and there are times when, you know...at any moment, I would love that relationship. And I've always talked about that.
"But even just like coming up with stuff, we have to communicate about how North moves through that world and all these opportunities that come her way and having to filter that and like respecting his opinion on the things that go on with his kids is really important.
"So yeah, I think he's so good at doing that. I think it's important for the kids. You just kind of have to put all the other stuff aside."
Kim had previously spoken about how difficult their relationship was on an episode of The Kardashians last year, saying she felt 'pretty tested' by West.
"I haven’t had psoriasis since I got divorced, and it just started coming back," she continued. "I mean, I have psoriasis again. I felt more stressed, probably just because I had to super, super protect what I had to protect."
