Kanye West Says Kim Kardashian Is ‘Still My Wife’ Despite Divorce!

Kanye West says he still wants to “be together” with estranged wife Kim Kardashian despite their impending divorce.
In an interview with the “Drink Champs” podcast published Thursday, the rapper — who is now known as Ye — discussed his relationship with the “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star, who filed for divorce in February. (Per TMZ, the interview may have been filmed weeks ago based on his haircut.)
While speaking with hosts N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN, the “Yeezus” musician referred to Kim as his “wife” — “’cause she’s still my wife, ain’t no paperwork.”
Ye also brought up Kim’s “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig last month where she joked in her monologue that she divorced him for his “personality.”
“‘SNL’ making my wife say ‘I divorced him’ on TV because they just wanted to get that bar off,” he said. “And I ain’t never even seen the papers, we’re not even divorced.”
“That ain’t no joke to me,” he added. “My kids want their parents to stay together. I want... us to be together.”
In February, Kim filed for divorce after six years of marriage and asked for joint legal and physical custody of the couple’s children. At the time, TMZ reported that neither party contested the divorce.
Months later in April, Kanye responded to the divorce, and also requested joint legal and physical custody of their kids.
Last month, a source told People that Kim and Kanye “are friends, but that’s it. She is still moving forward with the divorce.”
“She loves having Kanye’s support, though. They were not in a good place around the time Kim filed for divorce. She is so happy that things are better now. It’s all very beneficial for the kids,” the insider added.
Since hosting “SNL,” Kim has been spending time with cast member Pete Davidson, whom she kissed in a skit where they played Disney couple Aladdin and Jasmine.
On Wednesday, TMZ reported that Kim and Pete were together for another outing — this time with friends at Zero Bond in NYC.
Previously, the two went to a theme park in California — along with Kim’s sister Kourtney and her fiancé Travis Barker — and enjoyed a secret dinner Tuesday night at a restaurant in Pete’s native Staten Island.
Kim and Kanye share four children: daughters North, 8, and Chicago, 3½, plus sons Saint, 5½, and Psalm, 2.
