Kanye West fans have been left convinced he has compared his split from ex-wife Kim Kardashian to the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The rapper, 45, took to his Instagram Stories on Sunday to tell London he "knows how they feel". Uploading white words to a black background, the Gold Digger singer said: "London I know how you feel I lost my Queen too."
And fans were quick to debate just how much the situations could be compared. On Twitter one user criticised the potential comparison, saying: "Give it up, Kanye. Y'all was always going to end up divorced in the end anyway."
A second user slammed the post, complaining: "Kanye alternates between calling Kim a white supremacist and saying she’s his queen."
A third added: " Kanye West Still Misses His Queen Kim Kardashian," while the official Chicks in the Office page said: "Kanye West isn’t giving up on Kim."

However, other fans believe the post was actually referring to his mum, Donda, and not the SKIMS founder. Donda died in 2007 aged 58 and was the inspiration behind Kanye's latest album which he named after her.
One user shared a snap of Ye and his mum alongside his Insta post to make their point known.
And that was backed up by another user who added: "It’s so funny people thinking Ye is talking about Kim people are so damn slow Kim is not gone he’s talking about his mother Donda West."

Some though just couldn't workout his cryptic post, with one pleading: "Please be talking about your mama."
The thought was echoed by another who said: "I hope he talking about his mama."
The post comes less than 24 hours after Kanye, who is now officially named Ye, had earlier uploaded a snap of his ex, from whom he split up with in February 2021.
The couple have had a rough ride of it lately, especially during Kim's nine-month relationship, during which time Kanye continued to throw shade at the comedian.

However, at the weekend, in the middle of uploads surrounding his latest fashion ventures, the star shared a snap of reality TV star Kim, 41, looking stunning in a metallic silver outfit with bleach blonde hair. She completed the look with a tiny silver handbag.
He resisted adding a caption to the image, sending fans' thoughts into overdrive once more. While some believed it was a hint that he wanted his wife of seven years back, others believed he simply approved of her fashion choices.
