Kanye West allegedly had an affair with an “A-list singer” during his marriage to Kim Kardashian.

After giving birth to their five-year-old son Saint, the rapper’s adultery allegedly left the Keeping Up With the Kardashians actress “struggling.”

“Kanye cheated on Kim with an A-list singer. At the time it happened, Kanye was mainly living in his bachelor pad in Hollywood because it was closer to his studio and he wasn’t going to go home to Kim and newborn baby when he’d been partying late in the studio,” a source told The Sun.

They went on to say that it was a “really tough time” for the couple.

‘Kim wasn’t feeling herself – the breastfeeding, the extra weight, the baby in the bedroom, the early morning exercise routines and juice diets – and Kanye was out late a lot.’

According to the insider, the affair “put a lot of pressure on Kim because she’d just given birth, was struggling, and thought it was all because of how she looked – it put a lot of pressure on her at a time when she was at her most vulnerable.”

“It’s really sad. She blamed herself and vowed to ‘bounce back’ hotter than ever.”

Kardashian filed for divorce in February of this year. The couple married on May 24, 2014.

North, seven, and Chicago, three, are their daughters, while Saint, five, and Psalm, one, are their sons.

Neither of them has spoken openly about what caused their marriage to go apart, but the rapper hinted that he was unfaithful on his latest album Donda.

The “A-list singer” reference also suggests that the “new chick” in “Hurricane” isn’t Irina Shayk, whom Kanye dated following his divorce from Kim from June to August 2021. (Page Six has confirmed that Irina is not the lady Kanye refers to in “Hurricane.”)

“Here I go with a new chick… Still playing after two kids,” he raps in the song.

Meanwhile, the mother-of-four stated that there was no “one specific thing that happened on either part” that caused the breakup, but she did not elaborate.

‘I think it was just a general difference of opinions on a few things that led to this decision,’ she explained on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

‘And like, in no way would I want someone to think that I didn’t give it my all, or not really try. You know, we have four kids.

‘There’s nothing that I think parents would want more than to see, or even kids want more, than to see their parents together. I grew up and I lived that myself.’

This isn’t the first time Kanye has been accused of infidelity. Kanye cheated on Kim with Canadian model Leyla Ghobadi in 2013, according to Star, while the KKW Beauty founder was pregnant with their first child, North. Kanye and Leyla met in July 2012 at Kanye’s concert at the Revel Resort & Casino in Atlantic City, which also happened to be the same site where he and Kim revealed their first pregnancy in December 2013.

At the time, Leyla told Star, “He told me that [his relationship with Kim] was for publicity and nothing serious.” At the time, a spokesman for Kim refuted the story.
