Kanye keen on being close to Kim
The reality TV star filed for divorce from the Jesus Walks rapper and, most recently, asked a court to declare her single amid her rumoured romance with comedian Pete Davidson.
Kanye took a radical step to ensure he is close to Kim and their four children, North, Psalm, Saint, and Chicago, with the recent happenings.

TMZ reports that the Yeezy founder splashed out R71 million on a home across the street from where Kim lives.
The house boasts five bedrooms, a swimming pool and a stable for horses.
Kanye reportedly paid almost R7 million over the asking price.
During a recent concert with Drake, the rapper improvised the lyrics of his song Runaway to send a message to Kim.
“I need you to run right back to me, more specifically Kimberly," he rapped.
Kim asks to be declared single
It seems Kanye got a reality check after Kim sought to drop his second name and was spotted on numerous dates with Davidson.
Shortly after Kanye professed to want a reunion with Kanye during the performance, Kim filed documents in a US court to be considered legally single.
As soon as a judge signs those papers, Kim will be a single mother as the document separates her personal life from dealing with child support issues.
The same publication reported that the SKIMS entrepreneur seeks to restore her family name, Kardashian.
Kim and Davidson
In October, Briefly News reported that Kim and Davidson enjoyed a rollercoaster in California as they kicked off Halloween.
They also had friends around, and during the ride, Kim and Pete were spotted holding hands, which left some of their fans puzzled.
It came weeks after the two shared an on-screen kiss during a sketch when Kim recently hosted Saturday Night Live.
In January 2019, the two also hung out at Kid Cudi's birthday party, but Kanye was around that time.
