UPDATE: In a stunning revelation, Bianca Censori has confirmed that her relationship with Kanye West began while he was still married to Kim Kardashian. In an exclusive interview with Vanity Fair published today, Censori disclosed that their communication initiated before Kardashian filed for divorce in February 2021, adding a shocking new layer to their complex timeline.
Censori, an architectural designer, shared that the first contact came from West’s general manager after the rapper spotted her unique Instagram post featuring a ‘digital mask with alien proportions.’ This digital connection quickly evolved into a professional relationship when they met in Switzerland during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Censori was brought on board as the head of architecture for West’s Yeezy brand, leading to intense collaboration.
While working closely together, Censori revealed that their bond transformed from professional to personal, coinciding with Kardashian’s divorce proceedings. She recounted, “You’re spending so much time with somebody,” indicating that their feelings developed organically in tandem with Kardashian’s separation, which she cited as due to “irreconcilable differences.”
In a whirlwind, West and Censori tied the knot in December 2022, just one month after his divorce from Kardashian was finalized. Their swift union raised eyebrows, but Censori was quick to defend her intentions, stating, “I didn’t marry my husband because I wanted some sort of platform. I married him because I love him.”
However, the marriage has not been without its struggles. Censori opened up about considering leaving West due to his involvement in several public controversies, including the backlash from his sale of swastika T-shirts. She described these incidents as “surface level” temptations but acknowledged the significant emotional toll.
In an emotional moment, Censori discussed her role in supporting West’s mental health, revealing that she played a crucial part in encouraging him to seek help at a rehabilitation facility last year. “All I can do is always just be there and help,” she shared, likening the experience to “doing CPR for months.” Her dedication appears to have had a positive impact, as West publicly apologized for his antisemitic remarks in January.
Despite the tumultuous nature of their relationship, Censori expressed admiration for West’s parenting, calling him a “great dad” to his four children with Kardashian: North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6. Looking ahead, she shared her hopes of having children of her own, suggesting a long-term vision for their future together.
As the world watches this high-profile relationship unfold, Censori’s candid insights add a new dimension to the public’s understanding of Kanye West and his journey post-divorce. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
