Kim Kardashian’s Silence on Kanye West’s Antisemitic Remarks Causes Tension with Scott Disick
Kim Kardashian’s silence following her ex-husband Kanye West‘s recent antisemitic outbursts has reportedly led to growing tension within her family, particularly with Scott Disick. This comes two years after the reality TV star, who is of Jewish heritage, seemed to publicly denounce the rapper’s previous antisemitic comments.
Kanye West’s Antisemitic Outbursts Spark Controversy
On Sunday, Kanye, 47, faced a suspension from X (formerly Twitter) after making a series of inflammatory posts over the course of three days. These posts included antisemitic slurs, homophobic remarks, sexist content, and explicit material, all of which shocked the public. However, Kim Kardashian, 44, who shares four children with Kanye, has not publicly condemned his actions. This silence has allegedly frustrated Scott Disick, 41, who is said to be particularly angry due to his Jewish upbringing.
“Scott was raised Jewish, and Kim’s failure to denounce Kanye’s antisemitic remarks has left him furious.” The source added that Scott feels personally offended by Kanye’s attacks on the Jewish community. Scott, who shares a close relationship with the Kardashian family and is the former partner of Kourtney Kardashian (Kim’s sister), is particularly concerned about the influence Kanye’s behavior could have on his children, as well as Kim and Kanye’s kids—North (11), Saint (9), Chicago (6), and Psalm (5).
“Scott is worried that Kanye is setting a terrible example for their children, who are old enough to understand what’s happening,” the source continued. “Kim’s silence, and the family’s inaction, has really upset Scott.” The tension seems to have deepened, as the family’s failure to take a stance on Kanye’s words has put a strain on their relationships.
Kim Kardashian’s Inner Circle Urges Her to Speak Out
A second insider told that Kim’s close friends and family have been encouraging her to address Kanye’s remarks before the situation escalates further. “Those around Kim are pushing her to address Kanye’s posts for the sake of their children and to prevent things from getting worse,” the source said. “If Kim continues to ignore it, the situation could spiral. Some kind of intervention is needed, and many think Kim should take the lead on this for the sake of everyone involved.”
Kanye West’s antisemitism is well-documented. In late 2022, he made a shocking comment threatening to “go DEFCON 3 on the Jewish people,” referring to the U.S. defense readiness condition, before praising Adolf Hitler in a controversial interview with far-right talk show host Alex Jones. His actions were condemned by many public figures, including Kim Kardashian, who publicly denounced hate speech and expressed solidarity with the Jewish community.
Scott Disick’s Indirect Criticism of Kanye
Though Scott has not directly named Kanye, he appeared to indirectly address him during an episode of The Kardashians filmed around the same time. After Kris Jenner praised Scott’s Star of David necklace during a conversation about his son Mason’s Bar Mitzvah, Scott responded, “I have to represent my Jewish side these days.” His subtle comment seemed to reflect his frustration with Kanye’s behavior.
In the past, Kim has been vocal in her condemnation of Kanye’s remarks. After his antisemitic comments in 2022, she tweeted, “Hate speech is never acceptable or excusable.” At the time, she expressed solidarity with the Jewish community and called for an immediate end to the violence and hate speech targeting them.
Kim and Kanye were married for nearly a decade before divorcing in 2021. They finalized their divorce in November 2022, just a month before Kanye secretly married Bianca Censori, an Australian architect who is 30 years old. Kanye has also faced recent backlash for making derogatory comments about Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, and plus-size models, along with his controversial statement in 2018 that “slavery is a choice.”
Bianca Censori’s Response to Kanye’s Remarks
In addition to the ongoing drama, Bianca Censori has also found herself under scrutiny. Sources claim that she was unaware of Kanye’s recent remarks. “Bianca didn’t know he was doing this,” an insider revealed. “They were in LA, and he started this behavior in the middle of the night.” Another source shared that Bianca was “fed up” with Kanye’s constant attention-seeking behavior and feared his outbursts would make her appear antisemitic, which she vehemently is not.
As tensions continue to rise within Kim Kardashian’s family over Kanye’s inflammatory comments, it remains to be seen whether she will finally speak out. Her silence is creating rifts not only with Scott Disick but within the wider family dynamic, as many believe it’s time for Kim to take a stand for the sake of her children and the Jewish community.
