On Tuesday night, Kardashian was seen with Censori at West's Vultures party. The move was quite a shocker for onlookers, as the duo have never been seen together in public since the rapper finalized his divorce with the SKIMS founder and married the Australian architect.
According to the Daily Mail, Kardashian made the appearance as part of a "concerted effort" to put on a "united front" for the family, an act for which West was grateful.
"It's not like Kim went down the street for this," a source told the publication. "She flew to San Francisco, and, of course, Kanye was thankful. It was a concerted effort on her part."
The source confirmed Kardashian knew Censori would be at the event but emphasized the beauty mogul wasn't there for her. They also revealed a surprisingly positive development about Censori's role as stepmother to Kardashian's four kids with West: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
"They do talk," the source said about the female duo. "Kim has accepted that Bianca is the stepmother to her children and that they love her."
How Fans Reacted To Kim Kardashian's Appearance At The Party
After videos of the surprise appearance made the rounds, fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to share their reactions.
"Surprised [Kardashian] still went for his listening party. He will always be important at the end of the day," one fan said,
Another user wrote, "More shocked that Kim is there to begin with than I am that she's next to Bianca."
One fan seemed to think it was not a big deal, adding that the pair "are both mature women" and there was "no need for rivals or enmity."
Another X netizen commented, "There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. It's all love."
One more person said, "Didn't imagine they'd be on good terms, that's nice," while another said, "I love Kim. She always puts the bulls--- aside for the kids!!"
How Kim Kardashian And Bianca Censori Turned Up For The Party
For the party, Kardashian donned a black top and coat, which complemented her black hair that was styled into a sleek bun. Meanwhile, Censori also slicked her hair in her signature style. She wore a flimsy pale pink top that had a plunging neckline teamed with white tights.
The duo was joined by North West and Chicago—Kardashian's kids with the "Donda" rapper. Censori's mother, Alexandra, and sister, Angelina, were also present at the party.
According to reports, Kardashian and Censori engaged in a lively conversation while enjoying the performance from West and his collaborator on the project, Ty Dolla $ign. The duo were also seen sharing a warm hug, further suggesting that they were chill and comfortable in each other's presence.
Kim Kardashian And Bianca Censori Were Reportedly At Odds
While the surprise appearance points to Censori and Kardashian being on amicable terms, rumors had earlier circulated in November that the duo were at odds.
It allegedly all stemmed from Censori sharing her frustrations with Kardashian for putting West's kids in danger.
At the time, the businesswoman claimed on her family's reality TV show, "The Kardashians," that her rapper ex-husband and his wife lived in an apartment without proper security.
According to the Daily Mail, Censori believed that she put their kids "in jeopardy" by sharing such information.
Bianca Censori Felt Kim Kardashian Was 'Tacky' For Speaking About Their Living Situation
Censori reportedly conveyed her frustrations with the SKIMS founder for her "negative" portrayal of West.
"Bianca thinks it was quite tacky of Kim to divulge this information on 'The Kardashians' and, by doing so, she was actually putting her kids' safety in jeopardy," a source told the news outlet at the time.
Meanwhile, Kardashian reportedly had issues with Censori's provocative appearances and did not want her wearing such looks around her kids.
"Kim instructed Kanye to never let Bianca dress like that around their kids," a source told the news outlet. "She is truly surprised that Kanye would let his wife leave the house like that."
