Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are NOT back together, despite being seen together several times leading up to her ‘SNL’ performance.
According to multiple reports, the ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ star is not getting back together with her famous rapper ex-husband, regardless of the decision to spend time with him leading up to the airing of ‘Saturday Night Live.’
“Nothing’s changed,” a source close to the reality star said. Interestingly, this is just hours after Kim dropped her married name on multiple occasions during the live show. “They are not back together. He is still her family, and they are friends. They’ve been working on their friendship for the kids, and continue to support each other. He’ll always be her family, and they’ll always support each other,” the person told Page Six.

Kanye sat front and center as Kim delivered her opening monologue, and headed backstage after the opening of the show.
