Kim Kardashian ‘furious’ with Kanye West after he shares meme mocking break-up with Pete Davidson

Kim Kardashian is said to be enraged with Kanye West after he shared a meme mocking her recent breakup with Pete Davidson.

The SKIMS mogul, 41, and comedian, 28, reportedly called time on their nine-month relationship last week after struggling to maintain a long distance relationship with Kardashian based in the US while he is filming for a new movie in Australia.

Her estranged husband Kanye West, who is now formally known as Ye, broke his silence on the matter on Monday and couldn’t resist a cheeky dig.

The rapper took to his Instagram page to share a fake front page of the New York Times which read: “Skete Davidson dead at age 28.”

In the smaller text below the headline, it reads: “Kid Cudi meant to play funeral but fearful of bottle throwers.”

West famously referred to Davidson as Skete during his feud with the former SNL funny man earlier this year, which resulted in him releasing an animated video where he buried Davidson alive for his song Eazy.

Kardashian called the behaviour of her ex “scary,” which prompted the Stronger hit-maker to apologise for some of his social media posts.

He’s now back to his old tricks however, much to The Kardashians’ star’s ire.

“Kim won’t stand for this. She is demanding that Kanye take the post down, but he won’t,” a source told DailyMail.com.

“She has been vigorously defending Pete. She’ll never get back together with Kanye over the way he’s treated the people she loves and respects.

“She has tried incredibly hard to have a good co-parenting situation for the children. She won’t stand for this type of behavior from him,” the insider added to the publication.

The Standard has contacted a representative for Kim Kardashian for comment.
