They can block deals… but I’m [going to] tell you straight up, don’t play with my kids,” he said. “Whoever y’all work for — whoever y’all think the family is working for — I’m telling you right now, don’t play with my children… It’s going to be all legal baby.”
Kanye, who is now dating actress Julia Fox, recently made headlines when he accused Kim of not inviting him to one of their daughter Chicago’s birthday party. A source EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife that Kim didn’t invite him because she doesn’t feel they need to be at every party together.
“Kim really didn’t invite Kanye to the party. He’s no longer a part of the family, they don’t have to all be together for the birthday parties, at least right now. They’re not together,” the source said before adding that “Kanye chose to move across the street to co-parent.”
Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in Feb. 2020.
