Ye and Bianca Censori: A Strong Bond Despite Persistent Divorce Rumors
Background:
In November 2022, renowned rapper Ye (formerly Kanye West) and architectural designer Bianca Censori held a marriage ceremony, marking their union less than two months after Ye’s reported divorce from reality television star Kim Kardashian was finalized.
Recent Developments and Media Speculation:

Official Response:
Milo Yiannopoulos, a spokesman for the couple, swiftly released an emailed statement to USA TODAY refuting the rumors.
Statement by Milo Yiannopoulos:
"Despite rumblings from the rumor mill, Ye and Bianca Censori are still going strong. A representative for the controversial couple recently shut down speculation that the rapper, formerly known as Kanye West, and his wife are in the early stages of a divorce.
Ye and Bianca are in Los Angeles, about to enjoy Valentine’s Day together," Yiannopoulos confirmed. "Announcements about their private life will come from them directly, not unsourced rumors in the tabloid press.
Is this the fifth or is it the sixth time the press has wrongly reported that Ye and Bianca are separating? I’ve lost track."
Previous Dismissals of Divorce Rumors:
Yiannopoulos’ statement follows a pattern of denying divorce rumors involving the couple. Hollywood Reporter first reported the news on Thursday, prompting Yiannopoulos to issue his rebuttal.
Grammy Awards Appearance and Controversy:
Earlier this month, Ye and Censori sparked controversy with their appearance at the 67th annual Grammy Awards. Ye sported a basic attire while Censori wore a provocative, nearly nude dress that drew mixed reactions.
Ye defended his wife’s outfit on social media, criticizing those who labeled it a publicity stunt.
Public Discourse and Cultural Significance:
The couple’s appearance and Censori’s dress ignited extensive online discourse, with some expressing outrage and others defending the couple’s artistic expression. The incident highlighted the cultural significance of fashion and the role of celebrities in shaping perceptions.
Legal Status:
Ye and Kardashian were declared legally single in March 2022, fulfilling Kardashian’s request for divorce filed in February 2021.
Conclusion:
Despite persistent divorce rumors, the official response from Ye and Censori’s representative indicates that the couple remains together and denies any imminent plans for separation. Their relationship continues to garner public attention, with their actions and appearances often sparking controversy and cultural dialogue.
