Kanye West stunned the world when he dropped a series of explosive bombshells about his wife Kim Kardashian last week. In a dramatic Twitter outburst, the 43-year-old rapper made a number of claims, including that Kim was trying to hospitalise him and that he had been trying to divorce her for two years.

Kim, 39, responded by addressing her husband’s bipolar condition, admitting it’s “incredibly complicated and painful” to understand. She wrote on Instagram Stories, “I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye’s right to privacy when it comes to his health.

“But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconception about mental health.”

She added that it “does not diminish or invalidate his dreams and his creative ideas”. And now a family friend of the Kardashians, comedian and actress Heather McDonald, has told new exactly how Kim will be feeling following Kanye’s allegations.
