Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's marriage has been under intense scrutiny in recent weeks, following a series of public outbursts by the rapper. The couple, who have been married since 2014, have reportedly taken a break from discussing politics in an effort to save their relationship.
According to sources close to the couple, Kim and Kanye have boarded a private jet and are currently on a remote Caribbean island with their four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. The trip is seen as a desperate attempt to repair their marriage, which has been strained by Kanye's recent behavior.
Kim was left feeling humiliated after Kanye announced on Twitter that he wanted to divorce her, and things only got worse when he continued to tweet cutting remarks about her family. He even went so far as to accuse her mother, Kris Jenner, of being a 'white supremacist.'
However, in a surprising turn of events, Kanye publicly apologized to Kim on Twitter, writing: 'I would like to apologise to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter.' He added: 'I did not cover her like she has covered me. To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me.'
Despite his apology, it's clear that the couple still has a long way to go in terms of healing their relationship. The fact that they're taking a break from discussing politics is a sign that they're willing to do whatever it takes to save their marriage.
