On Friday, news broke that the SKIMs owner and her former boo called it quits after nine months together.

Throughout that time, Ye did everything possible to derail their relationship. So it's no surprise that the rapper is wallowing in their misery, by posting – then immediately removed – a photoshopped image of a New York Times front page with the headline: "SKETE DAVIDSON DEAD AT AGE 28."

Making matters worse, the Donda artist also included the caption, "Kid Cudi meant to play funeral but fearful of bottle thrower" – making this a case of two shades with one stone.

Ye's reaction to Kim's heartbreak is an entirely expected one, given his prior attacks against the man who dated his estranged wife.

For those who haven't been keeping with up with this drama, the Hurricane artist repeatedly hurled violent insults and even threats towards Pete after it was revealed that he was dating the 41-year-old reality star. It took an Instagram ban to finally stop him from publicly attacking the couple.

In spite of his little victory dance online, Kanye has his own troubles to worry about. Over the weekend, per Rolling Stone, the Jesus Walks rapper's fifth attorney quit ahead of his divorce trial.

The former couple are will head to court on December 14, but it's not entirely clear that Ye has even accepted the reality of their divorce yet.
