Kanye West sent shockwaves through the celebrity world when news emerged that he’d wed Bianca Censori shortly after his divorce from Kim Kardashian was finalised. However, barely three years later, it was been announced the famous duo went their separate ways.
The controversial star announced the news in the form of lyrics from his new song.

In the chorus, according to lyric website Genius, he pleads for the couple to rekindle.

Before their split, the pair were a media staple, notorious for their eyebrow-raising antics and Bianca’s increasingly daring fashion choices. Rumours soon swirled that Kanye was the puppet master behind her wardrobe, also allegedly managed her diet and when she could speak.
Concern bubbled up within her family, and her father Leo Censori was reportedly eager to confront Kanye about transforming his daughter into “a trashy naked trophy pony”.

An ex-pal disclosed on the Ben, Liam and Belle show that Bianca may have left university abruptly due to Kanye’s online overture: “Ye slid into her DMs, found her on Instagram and said, ‘Come and work for me,’ and she dropped out. I’m not actually sure if she’s an architect,” reports the Mirror US.
December 2022
Then came December 2022, marking the release of ‘Censori Overload’.
Their romance appeared to heat up in December 2022 when Kanye dropped the track Censori Overload. In the song, he hinted at the reason for their marriage as he rapped: “And The Bible said I can’t have any more sex till marriage.”
The tune also referenced his split from ex-wife Kim Kardashian with the lyrics: “Waking up to ‘I can’t do this anymore’ texts,”.
2023
January 2023 saw the couple’s private wedding.
Bianca and Kanye were first snapped together in early January 2023, spotted at the Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills. They enjoyed a lunch date at the hotel, strolling around hand-in-hand.
That same month, rumours circulated that the pair had secretly tied the knot in a private ceremony in Beverly Hills. Reports suggested the wedding wasn’t legal as they had allegedly never filed a marriage certificate.
However, in October 2023, it was finally confirmed that Bianca and Kanye were legally wed. Documents released then showed the couple had secured a confidential marriage license that included a wedding date of December 20, 2022.
After tying the knot, it was time for Bianca to meet Kanye’s family. Towards the end of January 2023, she was seen dining out with Kim and Kanye’s eldest daughter North West.
June 2023 marked the couple’s move into a new home. In June 2023, sparks were flying as Bianca and Kanye took the next step in their whirlwind romance. According to The Sun, they shacked up in a swanky $20,000-a-month pad nestled in West Hollywood, California.
Decked out with all the mod cons, their love nest boasted two bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms and lush amenities—a heated pool, rooftop café, plush private cinema, and even a 24-hour concierge to cater to their every whim, not to mention valet services, a trendy bar, and a swish lounge area.
The flame of their relationship burned brighter as they celebrated two months together in June. A source confided to Us magazine at the time: “Things couldn’t be better for Kanye and Bianca.”
Gushing about the couple’s connection, they added: “Kanye feels like he finally met someone who truly gets him and loves him for the person he is. Bianca complements Kanye on so many levels, and he loves that they can work and collaborate together on projects.”
Flash forward to August 2023: it was amore for Kanye and Bianca as they whisked away for an opulent Italian getaway. But the trip soon made waves for reasons beyond luxury when a risqué misadventure saw Kanye baring his behind to stunned spectators while frolicking with Bianca on a boat, leading to the not-so-happy holidaymakers getting banned by the Venetian boat rental company.
Venezia Turismo Motoscafi, the firm that provided Kanye and Bianca with a boat, had blasted the couple’s daring antics, claiming they were clueless about what was happening on deck.
“On board, the driver had to keep a lookout for traffic and did not see these obscenities. If this had happened, he would have immediately disembarked and reported the transgressors to those in authority,” they expressed in a statement given to the Daily Mail.
They continued: “In addition, there was a third person on board the taxi, who accompanied Mr. and Mrs. West, who obstructed the captain’s view to the stern in any case.”
It turns out Kanye and Bianca weren’t alone on their nautical escapade; a female companion was with them. Come November 2023, there was talk of an intervention.
Word had it that Kanye set a bunch of rules for his life partner, dictating her diet, exercise regime, and wardrobe. In November 2023, Bianca’s pals were said to have confronted her, pushing her to “wake the f**k up”.
An insider spilled to the Daily Mail: “She knows that she has shut out those close to her, and she is also starting to see through the smoky mirrors of her marriage.”
2024
In August 2024, the couple reportedly split and sources told TMZ that the Clique rapper had been telling his pals that he was done with his wife and wanted to be single again.
Bianca’s family allegedly also became very concerned about the way she was dressing in public and raised their concerns with her while they were visiting her and Ye.
A source told Mail Online: “Bianca started to see the relationship in a new light when her friends and family voiced concerns about the way she was dressing in public and Kanye felt that she wasn’t as into him as she was in the beginning. There are no hard feelings, but she couldn’t ignore her family when they asked her to explain the stranger parts of their relationship.”
But one insider blasted the split as a publicity stunt. They said: “They knew that, by doing this, it would create some buzz and make them relevant as he tries to promote his new album. They both know that people are just over them and that her naked outfits are not enough to keep people interested. Everyone has seen her naked now there is nothing to wonder about.”
A few weeks later, in October, the couple shut down speculation over the state of their marriage when they appeared together in Japan. The same week, Kanye threw praise on his wife when he told The Download podcast: “Number one b***. My b*** is the most influential b**** on the planet.” When the host called Bianca the “best dressed”, Ye replied: “Best underdressed.”
That month, the American rapper hit back at allegations that he had hired a ‘fixer’ to follow his wife in Australia during their ‘split’. Kanye was accused of sending investigators to ‘tail’ Bianca abroad, but his representatives later rubbished the claims. They told Page Six that many of the allegations, published by Rolling Stone, were “simply fantastical and false”.
2025
The New Year started with the couple hitting headlines when they made a shock appearance at the Grammy Awards red carpet in February. Kanye was decked out in a full-black outfit while Bianca wore a fur coat.
After encouragement from her husband, she dropped the coat to reveal a completely transparent dress that she wore without any underwear. They went viral for weeks as many accused the rapper of ‘controlling’ her and ‘humiliating’ her.
He later took to X/Twitter to tell fans he had “dominion” over his wife before going on a lengthy tirade with anti-Semitic, homophobic, racist and misogynistic tweets. Ye also spent money on a Super Bowl advert to direct fans to his website, where he was selling a swastika-printed t-shirt.
Being dropped by his talent agent and being slammed by celebrities didn’t stop the rapper from regularly returning to his Twitter page to continue on his shocking rants.
At one point, a source claimed Bianca “had enough” and said the “swastika shirt was the last straw”.
April 2025 – split
In April, Kanye discussed their split in his lyrics from his new song. In the chorus, according to lyric website Genius, he pleads for the couple to rekindle. Ye says: “Bianca, I just want you to come back/Come back to me/I know what I did to make you mad”, implying Bianca, 30, was the one who ended their romance.
In a verse, he claims: “My baby she ran away/But first she tried to get me committed/Not going to the hospital ’cause I am not sick I just do not get it”.
Elsewhere, in Ye’s lyrics of his new track, he claims: “She’s having a panic attack and she is not liking the way that I tweeted/Until Bianca’s back I stay up all night I’m not going to sleep/I really don’t know where she’s at.”
The Gold Digger star also claims Bainca’s family got involved in the song as he raps: “Her family, they want me locked up/They want me to go on retreat/They want me to run and meet/They want me to [?]”.
