What's Really Going On With Kanye West And Irina Shayk?
Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from Kanye West in February, according to TMZ. In the legal docs, Kim asked for "joint legal and physical custody of the [former] couple's [four] kids," but a prenuptial agreement laid out how just about everything else gets divvied up — and TMZ reports that neither party was contesting it. The two have not yet finalized their divorce, but that doesn't mean that they aren't already thinking about their respective, albeit separate, futures.
There have been all kinds of rumors about who Kim and Kanye will end up dating next, some more believable than others. For example, Kim has been linked to rapper Drake thanks to a claim made by Wendy Williams. According to HotNewHipHop, Williams claimed that Kim and Drake were "all over each other" at Kendall Jenner's tequila party on May 21. Though it's unknown if that Kim/Drake rumors hold any truth, a source told Hollywood Life that Kim is "happy" and that she isn't quite ready to start dating just yet.
On the heels of those claims come rumors that Kanye and actress/model Irina Shayk are dating. The rumor was initially started when an anonymous source wrote in to popular Instagram celebrity blind account DeuxMoi, according to the Daily Mail. Keep reading to find out more.
Kanye West and Irina Shayk go way back
"Kanye West is now secretly dating Irina Shayk aka Bradley Cooper's baby mama," the source wrote in to DeuxMoi, according to the Daily Mail. The entity behind DeuxMoi did some digging behind the scenes and provided followers with the following tidbit. "After further looking into this, I don't know if 'dating' is the right word, but there is perhaps some interest there," read a message written across the screenshot of the tipster's original direct message.
And while fans might think that these two are being paired out of thin air, Daily Mail points out that they've actually been linked for quite some time. In 2010, for example, she was cast as an angel in the music video for Kanye's song "Power." Moreover, Fashionista reports that her name was part of the lyrics in Kanye's "Christian Dior Denim Flow," which was released the same year. In more recent times, the super model was spotted wearing a DMX shirt back in April, according to Page Six. The tribute garment was part of the Yeezy x Balenciaga collaboration. Coincidence? We'll have to wait and see.
