Is NOT Dropping ‘West’ From Last Name Following Divorce
The explanation actually makes a lot of sense.
According to reports, Kim will keep her name as it is, Kim Kardashian West, because she feels it is important to keep the same last name as her four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
The famous ex-couple is also not changing the last names of their children... here's where it gets complicated.
Kanye West filed to legally change his name from “Kanye Omari West” to simply ‘YE.’ That means Kim and her children will be the only ones with the last name, 'West.'
Kardashian reportedly fully supports Kanye’s decision to go just as “YE” because he has been known by that moniker for years.
Kim is also very supportive of Ye’s new album listening parties and has shown up with the couple’s four children to all events.
It's a crazy name game that Ye and Kim Kardashian West are playing, but somebody has to keep the West name!
