Kanye West has reportedly sent a legal notice to his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, regarding the welfare and custody of their four children: North West, Saint West, Chicago West, and Psalm West. According to sources, the notice accuses Kardashian of violating their joint custody agreement, specifically in relation to their 11-year-old daughter, North.
The notice alleges that North West was left unattended in a vehicle during the 2025 Met Gala, while also claiming that Kardashian exposed her children to excessive media attention. Kanye reportedly accuses Kim of exploiting North for “personal or commercial gain” by sharing online content of her at public events. He argues that this exposure undermines his parental rights and goes against his opposition to his children’s public visibility.
Custody Dispute and Allegations of Restricted Access
In addition to the concerns about North’s exposure, the legal notice claims that Kanye West’s access to the children has been unfairly restricted. West reportedly states that he has not seen his son, Saint, in 2025, and has had limited interaction with North, Chicago, and Psalm.
However, sources close to Kim Kardashian have responded, asserting that Kanye has not been denied access to the children but that he has rarely requested visits. This response highlights the ongoing disagreement over parenting decisions between the former couple, whose co-parenting relationship has been a subject of public attention since their divorce was finalized in 2022.
Public Tension and Ongoing Disagreements
This latest development is another chapter in the ongoing public tension between Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, whose divorce was finalized after eight years of marriage. Both have voiced differing views on how to raise their children, particularly when it comes to the level of privacy their children should have and their exposure to the public eye.
As the legal battle continues, it remains to be seen how this will affect their relationship as co-parents and the future of their children’s welfare in the spotlight.
