Kanye West shared about accidentally having a child with Kim Kardashian when they first started dating and their current status in a sensational interview on March 30.
“It was my fault. I didn’t want to have a baby with this woman after two months of knowing her. But it wasn’t God’s plan,” Kanye West said in an interview with DJ Akademiks posted on YouTube on Sunday.
The 44-year-old rapper mentioned his first child with Kim Kardashian, North West, who is nearly 12 years old. She was born in June 2013, after a year of dating. It was not until May 2014 that Kanye and Kim got married in a lavish ceremony in Italy. The couple has since had three more children: Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5.

Kanye’s statement raised eyebrows among many fans, as the rapper has always expressed his love for his daughter North West. Some felt that Kanye was denying his past with Kim, despite the fact that they had a passionate seven-year marriage with four children.
During the hour-long conversation, Kanye also addressed his bitter battle with Kim. “I don’t own the name and likeness, or at least 50-50 ownership of my kids. So what does joint custody look like?” The rapper alluded to his custody agreement with Kim when they divorced in 2021.
Kanye accused Kim and her family of controlling their famous children. Earlier, in mid-March, the rapper also harshly criticized his ex-wife on X, claiming that “this white woman” and the “Kardashian gang” were controlling his black children.
Kanye’s anger comes from Kim Kardashian’s objection to his new song featuring daughter North West, rapper Diddy – who is currently in prison for sex trafficking – and the son of the infamous music mogul. Kanye is also angry that Kim let her daughter collaborate with 28-year-old rapper Playboi Carti.

Kanye West also accused his ex-mother-in-law, Kris Jenner, and accused Kris of signing a contract to release her daughter’s sex tape. Elsewhere in the interview, the rapper defended his “twin brother” Diddy despite the 55-year-old rapper’s serious legal issues.
In addition, the American rapper shocked everyone when he appeared in a hood that only showed his eyes and a black cloak. Inside, Kanye wore a T-shirt with Diddy’s real name, Sean John, and a necklace with a Nazi symbol. When asked if he had worn the outfit in public, Kanye said he wanted to wear it yesterday but was afraid people would “put me in the hospital”.

Kanye West has been in hot water since February after he took his current wife, architect Bianca Censori, to the 2025 Grammy Awards and told her to take off her gown, revealing herself nearly naked on the red carpet. The rapper then claimed he had the right to control his wife because he was a billionaire. Kanye continued to make waves with anti-Semitic, pro-Hitler and Diddy statements. He also released a T-shirt with a Nazi symbol before it was taken down. These actions led to Kanye being terminated by his management company.
