Spotted: Kanye West out and about in Los Angeles – with a noticeably unadorned left hand.
Ye has pretty much been M.I.A. from the public eye ever since his estranged wife Kim Kardashian filed for divorce in February. However, over the weekend, paps caught Ye walking around L.A. with a very interesting choice for a mask, but more interestingly, it appears he’s no longer sporting his wedding ring.
In photos published by TMZ, the rapper was snapped walking with what looks like a cloth bag covering his entire head – and many are wondering how he can see through it. It seems like legit question, too, as there appears to be no eyeholes in the cloth at all.
Anyway, the camera caught his left side – it also captured his visibly bare left hand. The no-wedding-ring look is sparking major speculations that Ye may be moving on amid his divorce. It’s unclear when exactly he decided to ditch the accessory – according to TMZ, the photo of Ye DJ Khaled posted on his feed still wearing the ring in April was reportedly taken in 2019, which is way before Kim filed for divorce. He was however, spotted in Malibu wearing the ring just days before the filing.
Not only is Ye moving past his marriage, he’s rumored to be dating, too. The lady in question? Bradley Cooper’s ex, Irina Shayk.
In a report, the gossip site Deux Moi initially wrote, “Kanye West is now secretly dating Irina Shayk aka Bradley Cooper’s baby mama.” Later, they added, “After further looking into this, I don’t know if ‘dating’ is the right word, but there is perhaps some interest there.”
So far, there haven’t been any sightings or reports of the two actually together, so it’s all rumors and speculations at this point. However, it may not be impossible. Ye and Irina have known each other for years – they previously worked together in Ye’s music video for “Power,” which came out before Ye and Kim even started dating. He also dropped her name in his track “Christian Dior Denim Flow.”
As for Kim, a source told The Sun that the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is “not upset or even bothered” by any of these rumors – and she’s also rumored to be dating someone new, too. None other than Ye’s rap rival Drake.
Daytime talk show host Wendy Williams claims the two were spotted at Kendall Jenner’s star-studded 818 Tequila launch party last week looking pretty cozy.
“The rumors have been for years that they have been dating or hooking up or whatever,” Wendy said on the Wendy Williams Show. “Well, they arrived separately to Kendall’s tequila party. Kendall has a tequila and she just launched it. Kim arrived separately in a Yellow Cab, while Drake arrived separately, as well.”
She also added that sources claim the two were “all over each other inside the party.”
More recently, the two were both reportedly in attendance at another party – this time for billionaire British heir Jamie Reuben’s 34th birthday over the weekend. According to Page Six, Kim went to the birthday bash with their family friend Fai Khadra. And a source told the outlet that Drake arrived after attending a music industry dinner and was there “till late,” reportedly “hanging till 3 a.m.”
It’s important to note though that neither Kim nor Kanye have publicly spoken about their divorce. And, so far, neither of them has addressed the rumors of their new romances as well.
