Inside The Telling Video Kim Kardashian Just Posted That Fans Think Is About Her Divorce
Since the news of the official end of Kimye, fans have been anxiously watching Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's social media pages to see if any formal statement might come from the family.
The SKIMS owner was the one to officially file for divorce from West after almost seven years of marriage. Details of the divorce have yet to be confirmed by the Kardashian-West family, but TMZ reports a prenuptial agreement is already settled, and the couple has a plan for the future of their four kids, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
The couple first wed in Italy in 2014, but starting in summer 2020, rumor after rumor revealed their marriage was in trouble. With Kardashian as one of the most followed celebs on Instagram, the reality star's fan base expects to hear from their social media queen about the divorce. Plus, rapper Kanye West is known to have a Twitter tirade or two from time to time.
Both celebs have stayed uncharacteristically quiet about their divorce, but Kim may have hinted about how she really feels about the split from her husband in a new Instagram video.
Kim Kardashian played a break-up song on her Instagram
Reports have revealed that Kanye West may be the one taking the divorce the hardest. The rapper is "not doing well" according to People's inside source, and believes it was his 2020 presidential campaign that pushed his marriage to Kim Kardashian West over the edge.
As fans await more answers from the celebrity family (which may come via the final season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians), the reality TV star may have posted a hint into how she's handling her split.
According to People, the Kardashian took to Instagram to post a series of windmills with Olivia Rodrigo's "Driver's License" in the background. The single has gained popularity as a break-up song with the lyrics: "And all my friends are tired / Of hearing how much I miss you," which was featured in Kim's story.
The post wasn't the first time the KKW Beauty owner took to social media after the news drop of her divorce, but it was the first post to even slightly reference heartbreak.
The song continued on Kim's story, "I kinda feel sorry for them / 'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do, yeah. / Today I drove through the suburbs / And pictured I was driving home to you / And I know we weren't perfect / But I've never felt this way for no one, oh / And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay, now that I'm gone."
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have been tight-lipped about their split
Since the news of the official end of Kimye, fans have been anxiously watching Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's social media pages to see if any formal statement might come from the former couple.
The SKIMS owner was the one to officially file for divorce from West in February 2021, after almost seven years of marriage. Details of the divorce have yet to be confirmed by the Kardashian-West family, but TMZ reports that neither party intends to contest the prenuptial agreement. Additionally, the exes reportedly have a custody plan in place for their four kids: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. Kardashian asked for joint legal and physical custody in her divorce filing.
West and Kardashian tied the knot in Italy in 2014. They were very open about their love (and over-the-top romantic gestures). The rapper gave her flower walls and floating flowers on a seemingly consistent basis. In 2020, he commissioned a hologram of her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr. Despite that, 2020 was full of rumors that their marriage was in trouble.
Considering Kardashian is one of the most followed celebs on Instagram, the reality TV star's fan base expects to hear from its social media queen about the divorce. West is also known to share his thoughts on Twitter — in a big way — so it feels like only a matter of time before we hear more from the exes. Some Kardashian fans think the star may have alluded to the breakup in a video she shared via Instagram Story.
Kim Kardashian is back to business as usual
Kim Kardashian could have been alluding to her split from Kanye West when she posted some Instagram Story videos with Olivia Rodrigo's song "Driver's License" playing in the background. Granted, it's an extremely popular song, and Kardashian was in a moving car at the time, making it a relevant song choice for many reasons. Aside from those Stories, it does seem like she's back to business as usual when it comes to her Instagram activity post-divorce filing.
On Feb. 22, 2021, she shared a throwback photo of the Kardashian siblings with their late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., in honor of his birthday. The next day, she promoted a fragrance she created with her younger sister, Kylie Jenner. She even re-shared that instantly infamous painting that her daughter North West created.
Yes, Kardashian is a public figure, but she's not sharing her post-split emotions for free on her Instagram page. Instead, she seems to be focused on her products, her family, and thirst traps, which are the cornerstones of her personal brand. Plus, she does have a reality TV show. Why would she spill all the tea on her Instagram page when she could simply encourage us to tune in for Keeping Up With the Kardashians' final season? This woman is a social media genius, so she may just continue to tease the public without giving much away, just like she may have done by listening to "Driver's License."
