Kanye West has appeared to claim he wished he had children with Paris Hilton rather than his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.
The rapper, 47, has been blasted for increasingly eccentric behaviour, which includes anti-Semitic language and admitting to an incestuous relationship.
After dropping new music, in which he alludes to divorcing his current wife, Bianca Censori, Ye has once again taken aim at his Skims founder ex.
Ranting on Digital Nas’ Twitch stream, before he was banned, he declared he should have had children with Paris, 44.
‘I should’ve had babies with Paris Hilton over Kim Kardashian,’ Ye said. ‘Could you imagine if I had kids with Paris Hilton?
‘How many hotels I’d have now. Think about that — the Hilton. I think y’all staying at the Hilton right now. The Edition Hotels is a Hilton.’
Long ago (in the early to mid 2000s) Kim, 44, worked for Paris, becoming a loyal sidekick to the original reality star.
The savvy Kardashian positioned herself as the Simple Life star’s right-hand woman before Keeping Up With The Kardashians boosted her own fame.
As her infamous 72-day union with Kris Humphries ended, Kim began a relationship with Ye, having been ‘friends with for years’.
He and Kim married in 2014 after two years of dating, and share four children: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
In 2021, she filed for divorce with her attorney saying the pair were ‘not on the same page’ anymore despite them trying to reconnect.
Fans were furious at Ye’s comments, which he made before being booted off Twitch after just seven minutes on the platform.
‘Talking about your children’s mother like this, especially publicly, is insane,’ said Viceroy Flair on X.
LaStraniera25 shared: ‘Never liked Kim K but I’m with her on this one! How could he say these things that are surely hurtful to his kids..I mean how heartless can he be?!’
‘I feel bad for his kids, having to hear their father talk about their mom this way,’ added dariandemetri.
‘This is him assuming that Paris wanted him,’ slammed Ishshah_B as bitemeta joked: ‘Now I ain’t sayin he a gold digger.’
Helpfully, CurtisCrimmins added: ‘As a hotel nerd, I just need to point out that Edition is part of Marriott not Hilton.’
Speaking on The Kardashians to her sister Khloe, Kim shared: ‘If people knew what my relationship really was like, I think they would be like, “How did this last this long?”
‘But I can live with myself knowing that I tried everything humanly possible to make a situation work, and so I can walk away feeling absolutely guilt-free. ‘
When Ye’s behaviour became more erratic in 2023, Kim confessed it was ‘the hardest feeling to watch someone you really loved and you have a family with just be so different than who you knew.’
She added that she ‘misses’ the man that she married and would ‘do anything to get that person back.’
The children still spend time with their dad, although Kim rarely discusses him or his concerning behaviour publicly.
Meanwhile, Paris started dating businessman Carter Reum in 2019 and tied the knot two years later and have a son and a daughter born via surrogacy.
Ye is now married to Bianca, 30, although the pair were recently speculated to have hit a rocky patch.
They reconnected in Spain and went on a date night before the architect was seen back in her usual barely-there attire as she headed to the shops.
Amid concern over Bianca’s risque outfits, Ye has been openly antisemitic over the past few years to the point of selling t-shirts printed with swastikas.
In a rant on X, he called himself a ‘Nazi’ only to backtrack a few weeks later once his account was reinstated and announce he was ‘not a Nazi.’
