2 year oldKanye West’s social media meltdown continues today, with the troubled rapper posting a private text from estranged wife Kim Kardashian begging him to stop publicly slamming her new boyfriend Pete Davidson before somebody gets hurt.
West, who has in recent weeks complained that he no longer had Kim’s phone number, posted a text message from a number saved as “Kim other phone” which read: “U are creating a dangerous and scary environment and someone will hurt Pete and this will all be your fault.”
West has repeatedly called out Davidson in recent weeks, labelling the SNL comedian a “d**khead” and sharing an earnest private text from Pete with his 11 million followers.
West heeded his wife’s call – in part. He asked for none of his followers to “do anything physical” to Pete, who he referred to disparagingly as “Skete.” But disturbingly, he also vowed to “handle the situation” himself.
He included a photo of one man putting another in a headlock with his post.
And that bizarre act came hours after news broke that Kanye and his girlfriend of the past six weeks, actress Julia Fox, had parted ways.
Fox appeared to laugh off the intense relationship in a series of savage since-deleted Instagram stories, dubbing herself the “#1 hustler” who “wasn’t in love” with Kanye but had used the relationship to “come up” in the world.
As Kim and Kanye’s protracted divorce proceedings have turned uglier, the rapper has accused Kim of kidnapping one of their children and slammed her for allowing daughter North West to have a TikTok account. He later wiped all mention of Kim and their children from his social media.
As his attacks escalated, Kim recently made a rare public statement against Kanye.
“Kanye’s constant need for attacking me in interviews and on social media is actually more hurtful than any TikTok North might create,” Kardashian wrote in a statement issued to social media.
“As the parent who is the main provider and caregiver for our children, I am doing my best to protect our daughter while also allowing her to express her creativity in the medium that she wishes with adult supervision — because it brings her happiness.”
