Proper communication is key to a successful friendship, and iconic "momager" Kris Jenner is helping Kim Kardashian and Kanye West achieve that while they process their divorce.
The reality TV star and the musical icon tied the knot in 2014 and parent four children: 8-year-old North, 5-year-old Saint, 3-year-old Chicago, and 1-year-old Psalm.
In February, Kardashian filed to end their seven-year union legally, following the producer's absurd Twitter blowups and his controversial run for the US presidential seat.
Getting The Hang of It
A source revealed to HollywoodLife that interactions between the famous exes are better than in previous months, and West sees his children more often.
The insider said that spending more time together has helped the stars have a better friendship and are finally in a good place.
The source credited Jenner for this positive change, saying, although Kardashian does not appreciate her being so involved, she knows her mother is good at it.
The source also mentioned that there was no tension between West and Jenner.
Although there was in July 2020, West took to Twitter to accuse his mother-in-law of attempting to have him on a psychiatric hold.
The magazine reported that while the "SKIMS" founder had to be in Rome for work, West took a summer trip to Mexico with his kids.
During Kardashian's hosting debut, the "Adidas Yeezy" fashion designer also appeared on "Saturday Night Live" with Jenner.
SNL's Twitter page uploaded the socialite's opening monologue where she praised her ex and joked that his personality caused their split.
Just Friends!
Despite the positive state of things between Kardashian and West, the two are not getting back together.
Earlier this month, The Blast reported that a source close to the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star said "nothing's changed" regarding their divorce.
The insider told Page Six the famous duo are "working on their friendship for the kids, and continue to support each other."
West's appearance on his ex-wife's SNL followed rumors of rekindling their romance after they were spotted riding into rehearsals together.
The rapper merely helped Kardashian with her skit ideas, and the pair stayed at different hotels while in New York for the show. The "KKW Beauty" owner lodged at the Ritz-Carlton, and West stayed at the Pendry.
Buying Out A Fellow Billionaire
On October 12, The Blast reported that Kardashian was carrying on with her divorce from West and bought him out of their family home in Hidden Hills, California.
Legal documents retrieved by The Blast revealed that the "KUWTK" star filed for advance distribution of assets.
Kardashian paid West millions to gain rights to the property worth an estimated $60 million and built over many years by West and notable architects, including Axel Vervoordt.
Reports reveal that the billionaire rapper recently offered his Wyoming ranch up for sale and bought a $57 million Malibu beach house.
