It seems Kanye West (now known as Ye) is finally feeling the pinch amid the ongoing, lengthy custody battle with Kim Kardashian. A source revealed that he is now hoping that his ex-wife will agree to a “deal,” putting an end to their legal fight. The move comes after the singer realized “he’s in no position to fight with Kim, legally or financially.” As a result, West is desperate to reach an agreement regarding the custody of their four kids — North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm — with his former spouse.
Kim Kardashian is in a ‘much stronger position’ than Kanye West, says ‘source’
Kanye West is in the news again, but this time it’s due to his financial woes. According to a RadarOnline source, the rapper’s controversial opinions, including rants on anti-Semitism, have done him more harm than good. Due to this, the 48-year-old musician not only lost some major sponsorship deals, such as Adidas, but soon became persona non grata. This has hampered his image and led to some financial instability. Moreover, his “business opportunities have taken a nosedive over the past two years.”
As per the publication, after a drop of $1.5 billion, the rapper’s net worth currently stands at $400 million. However, this amount can decrease further due to various lawsuits against him and his controversial statements. But it is the custody battle with Kanye West’s ex, Kim Kardashian, that might empty his pockets rapidly.
That’s why West wants to make an agreement with his former wife and salvage “what’s left of his reputation.” The singer is “finally coming to grips with the reality that he’s in no position to fight with Kim, legally or financially,” the insider exclusively told RadarOnline.
The source added that the rapper is “terrified of a custody battle because his lawyers have warned it would cost him millions that he doesn’t have.” Moreover, the individual revealed that since “Kim’s in a much stronger position than he is financially,” West is “obviously hoping that if he backtracks, she might show some mercy and agree to a deal.”
