Kim Kardashian shortened her daughter North West’s vacation with her father Kanye West after she was told that Andrew and Tristan Tate were heading to Kanye’s house. The move is a reflection of the tensions that exist between Kim and Kanye as they co-parent their child amid Kanye’s recent actions and associates that continue to make things complicated.
The Tate brothers have become infamous names as a result of their controversial social media personalities and serious legal troubles. Andrew Tate has found himself at the center of controversy with human trafficking and rape allegations that have seen him being suspended on several social media platforms. His brother Tristan has also been implicated in such matters. Kim’s decision to take North out of Kanye’s care after she heard of their impending arrival shows that she felt their presence to be a threat to her daughter’s safety.
This incident does not occur in a vacuum. It is part of a wave of tension that followed Kanye’s reaction to a statement by rapper Playboi Carti on Kim’s Instagram. Carti had carelessly stated that he would want to work with North West, something that Kanye felt was a personal attack. The fallout included Kanye making public a confrontation with Carti, fuel to already combustible times for the artist. The confrontation gives some insight into Kanye’s current state of mind that would have heightened Kim’s fears over North’s proximity to him and his crew.
The co-parent relationship between Kim and Kanye has not been harmonious at all since their very public split. Kim has regularly criticized her fears over Kanye’s mercurial nature and how it might affect their four children. The addition of the Tate siblings appears to have been a turning point that forced Kim to act. It’s a clear sign of their struggle to bridge their personal differences with their shared role as parents.
