Kanye West 'starving himself' after wife Bianca Censori threatened to leave if he kept piling on pounds

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kanye West is reportedly turning his life around—both in the looks department and attitude-wise—thanks to a little tough love from his young wife, Bianca Censori.

According to insiders, the 30-year-old stunner gave him a blunt ultimatum that he must get it together, or she's out the door. And whispers suggest it seems to be working.

In a recent photo that’s got everyone's attention, the 47-year-old rapper showed off a noticeably slimmer frame and a rare smile while posing with his wife.

Bianca seemed just as happy in the latest photo, and insiders say her mood might have a lot to do with Kanye finally dropping the pounds. “Kanye’s dropped pounds, and Bianca’s obviously relieved because he was hefty and kind of gross,” one source spilled to Radar Online.

“Everyone’s giving him props for getting his act together, but truth is, he didn’t have much of a choice. Bianca pushed him to do something about that gut and his lousy attitude. He hasn’t been satisfying her in the bedroom, despite all her skimpy outfits and his bravado. So now he’s starving himself, trying to appeal to her!” they added.

Kanye West’s transformation

Kanye West and Bianca Censori went public in January 2023, dining at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills. But the two actually tied the knot on the low in December 2022, just a month after Kanye finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian.

Since then, Kanye and Bianca have been raising the temperature by posting bold shots online, usually featuring Bianca in outfits that leave little to the imagination.

But not everyone was focused on Bianca’s barely-there fashion. Plenty of fans and insiders couldn’t help but notice Kanye’s expanding waistline. “He was bingeing on junk food morning, noon, and night, even before they met,” an insider revealed.

“After they got together, he gained a ton of weight. The dynamics in their relationship have shifted—he’s feeling insecure about his body and realizing she could do better. Bianca’s gorgeous, young, and could have her pick of handsome guys. She doesn’t want to be stuck with a man who pigs out and snores himself to sleep every night," the source said, adding, “Luckily for Kanye, he’s slimmed down. But his anxiety over losing Bianca has only gotten worse.”

Kim Kardashian’s take

While Kanye West’s focusing on keeping Bianca Censori happy, Kim Kardashian—his ex-wife and mother of his four children—has been watching from the sidelines, and let’s just say she’s not impressed. According to sources, Kim has threatened to limit Kanye’s visitation rights if Bianca continues dressing in skimpy ensembles.

“Kim has let Kanye know she’s going to try and withhold his visitation with the kids if Bianca is around dressed like a cheap tart,” a source spilled. “They’ve had cross words, and the word is, they both lost their tempers,” the source said.

Kim and Kanye share four kids namely, North West, 11, Saint West, 9, Chicago West, 6, and Psalm West, 5. Though the exes officially called it quits in 2022 after an eight-year marriage, things remain tense. Kim has previously said she feels like a single mom, even though they share joint custody of the kids.
