Kim Kardashian Finds Kanye West's Latest Drama 'Exhausting'

It seems that Kim Kardashian wasn’t too shocked to see her ex, Kanye West, banned from Instagram for 24 hours on Wednesday.
The “Donda” rapper has made several threats against her current boyfriend, “Saturday Night Live” comedian Pete Davidson. A source told PEOPLE that Kim is trying to move past Ye’s recent drama.
Kim Kardashian ‘Didn’t Make A Big Deal’ Out Of Kanye West’s Instagram Suspension
Although the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” star once told a judge that Ye’s social media posts “caused emotional distress” before she was legally declared single, she is taking Kanye’s recent drama in stride.
“Kim found the suspension to be fair, but her reaction wasn’t very dramatic,” the source shared. “She didn’t make a big deal out of it and joked that she needed a break for the day.”
The source added that, “All of Kanye’s posts have been exhausting for though.” However, they noted that “It’s very impressive how calm and collected she is able to stay. She is very happy with Pete. Her kids are doing great. She is trying her best to stay positive and focus on all the amazing things in her life.”
Kim shares four children with Kanye from their almost seven-year marriage: North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 4, and Psalm, 2.
Ye shocked fans when he addressed comedian D.L. Hughley on Sunday morning, saying “I can afford to hurt u.” However, he was not suspended from Instagram until Wednesday, after he posted a series of slurs directed towards “The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah for comments he made on his Comedy Central show on Tuesday night.

On Tuesday night, the South African comedian expressed concern for Kim, saying, “over time, Kanye has become more and more belligerent in how he tries to get Kim back.” He brought up the recent “Eazy” music video, where Kanye kidnaps, decapitates, and buries a caricature Claymation version of Pete Davidson.
Noah commented on the “escalating” situation, saying, “There’s an element of a woman saying to her ex, ‘Hey, please leave me alone.’ It touches on something that is more sensitive and more serious than people would like to admit,” Noah said. “I see a woman who wants to live her life without being harassed by an ex-boyfriend or an ex-husband or an ex-anything.”
“You may not feel sorry for Kim because she's rich and famous,” he continued. “But what she's going through is terrifying to watch. And it shines a spotlight on what so many women go through when they choose to leave [toxic relationships].”
“What we're seeing here is one of the most powerful, one of the richest women in the world unable to get her ex to stop texting her, to stop chasing after her, to stop harassing her,” he added.
Although Noah is concerned about where this could lead, Ye's ex Julia Fox said that she is not at all concerned that Kanye is going to hurt someone else. However, when asked if Kanye might hurt himself, his recent ex had a different answer.
Julia Fox Insists That Kanye West Is 'Harmless'
A TMZ reporter caught up to Julia Fox while she was leaving a workout at Barry’s Bootcamp in WeHo and asked her about the drama concerning her recent ex. When asked about his recent social media threats, Julia seemed to dismiss any notions that Ye was capable of real violence, saying, “Kanye is harmless.”
“I just think that’s his artistic, creative expression,” she continued. “I know it’s aggressive and… but I really don’t [think he’d hurt anyone]. I think that if it really came down to it… I don’t think Kanye would hurt a fly and that’s all I have to say.”
When asked if Kanye could potentially be a harm to himself, Fox replied, “I’m not really sure.”
“I’ll give him a call and I’ll find out,” she added.
When asked if she was looking to date anyone new, Fox replied, “No, but this is a public appeal to anyone that wants to date me. I’m single and my DMs are open.”
