Even after divorce, Kim Kardashian will continue to use her married last name, West. We tell you the reason
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have been seen together lately (at a massive event where he presented his album “Donda” and during a lunch date), but that doesn’t mean their divorce proceedings have been on hold. In fact, once the divorce is finalized, she will continue to use her married name, West, even though her ex officially changes her name to Ye .
Sources close to the former couple told the TMZ site that Kim does not want to remove her ex-husband’s last name and has a powerful reason for this: “Kim feels that it is important for her to keep the same last name as that of her four children.”
The page reports that although Kanye is now going to be called Ye , his children North , Psalm , Chicago and Saint will not remove their last names.
Of course, Kim supports Kanye West in his desire to change his name because, after all, he has also known him as Ye for years . “Kim thinks people will recognize him as Kanye West even though he now uses his nickname as a legal name.”
The name change is not something new for Kanye West . In 2018 he had tweeted about his wish to be called Ye. “Being known formally as Kanye West. I am YE “.
And finally, August 24, the music producer presented the legal documents before the Superior Court of Los Angeles to change his name. Kanye cited “personal reasons” for the change and will have to wait until a judge approves his request.
