More details emerge: Has Kanye been secretly dating amid his divorce from Kim Kardashian?
New York, New York – Yeezy has his reported new flame are heating up!
As Kanye West once sang: "That that don't kill me, can only make me stronger."
And it definitely seems to be the case as he moves on from Kim Kardashian.
The rapper has been romantically linked to supermodel Irina Shayk, ex of actor Bradley Cooper, with whom he shares a past history. The two have been said to be keeping their fling a secret.
But now sources from multiple outlets are further spilling the beans about Kanye and the Russian model spending more time together recently, as some purported the two are "def dating."
Critics of the pairing have scandalously claimed that Irina has been intentionally climbing the celebrity dating ranks, seeing soccer star Cristian Ronaldo before breaking it off with him to date Bradley.
Now, they say she may have left Bradley in hopes of being with a higher-ranking public figure, like Kanye, who has a major stake in the fashion world.
Kanye and Irina's connection
Kanye and Irina have had a long-standing past connection, according to OK! magazine. The 35-year-old starred in the 43-year-old rapper’s Power music video in 2010. Two years later, she appeared on the runway to model Kanye's Fall/Winter collection at Paris Fashion Week.
Irina also seems to be giving more support to Kanye's fashion line as of late. Last month, she sported a $200 DMX t-shirt in New York that Kanye designed in a collab with Balenciaga.
She dated Bradley for four years before splitting in 2019, and they are parents to four-year-old daughter Lea. The two are said to have a "very friendly and cordial relationship" as they co-parent.
Since her break-up with Bradley, she has also been spotted with art dealer Vito Schnabel, Heidi Klum's ex, in New York City.
Kim and Kanye seem to have gone their separate ways for good
One of the few recent snaps of Kanye was taken over a month ago, when on a visit with DJ Khaled, he was still wearing his wedding ring.
Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in February after their six-year marriage and almost ten years of dating. Kanye has legally responded to the request and is said to be hoping to divide their assets equally and without the awarding of child support.
He has asked for joint physical and legal custody of their four children, daughters North and Chicago and sons Saint and Psalm.
Fans of Keeping Up With The Kardashians are finally getting to see how the cookie crumbled as part one of the series' finale aired this week. In it, Kim is filmed after a fight with Kanye and details the struggle of trying to hold her marriage together while the rapper constantly moved around.
With reports of Kim also moving on, the exs are perhaps getting over each other, by getting under someone new.
