Kim Kardashian and Kanye West had a tearful reunion on Monday (July 27).
According to an Entertainment Tonight source, Kim flew to Wyoming that day where they were spotted together for the first time since his campaign rally in South Carolina more than a week ago.
“Kim flew to Wyoming Monday to see Kanye after weeks of trying to get ahold of him and having him agree to see her,” the source told the outlet.
Speaking out about their reunion, the source also added: “The meeting was extremely emotional as the couple has a lot to work through now and most importantly making sure Kanye is healthy. Kim is still very upset with Kanye but she knows she needs to focus on him getting better. Kim plans to do whatever she can to help Kanye get the help he needs.”
Another source told People, “As soon as Kim got to the ranch, she and Kanye came out together in his car.”
Apparently, the KUWTK star “hasn’t seen Kanye for weeks,” and was “hysterically crying.”
“She is very emotional about everything, and also exhausted,” the source continued. “She feels very hurt by Kanye. She has tried to reach him multiple times and he just ignores her. ”
“It’s all a bad situation,” they said. “She decided to fly to Cody to speak to him in person. She doesn’t want to be ignored anymore.”
In photos published by TMZ, a tearful Kim and an animated Ye were snapped, seemingly talking it out inside the vehicle, at a Wendy’s parking lot in the area.
The reunion follows Kanye’s public apology to Kim – the rapper took to social media over the weekend to ask for forgiveness from his wife for airing their private issues in public.
“I would like to apologize to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter. I did not cover her like she has covered me,” Ye tweeted on Saturday (July 25). “To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me.”
Later that day, he was photographed at a Wyoming hospital reportedly seeking treatment for anxiety before ultimately deciding to get checked out at his ranch instead.
“Kanye has been experiencing a lot of anxiety lately. He has been surrounded by a lot of people and started to feel really overwhelmed,” a source told Us Weekly. “Kanye decided to go to the hospital to get checked out. Upon his arrival, Kanye decided he’d rather be seen at home. He headed back to his home — an ambulance followed. Kanye was treated and his doctor says his vitals are normal. He’s feeling much better.”
On Wednesday (July 22), Kim posted a statement on Instagram addressing Kanye’s bipolar disorder and asked fans for “compassion and empathy.”
“As many of you know, Kanye has bipolar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. I’ve never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye’s right to privacy when it comes to his health,” Kim wrote. “But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health.”
She went on to call her husband a “brilliant but complicated man,” and asked fans for compassion and empathy.
“We as a society talk about giving grace to the issue of mental health as a whole, however we should also give it to the individuals who are living with it in times when they need it the most,” she later added. “I kindly ask that the media and public give us the compassion and empathy that is needed so that we can get through this.”
Kim’s family has reportedly taken Kanye’s apology as a hopeful sign.
“Kim and the family are happy to see Kanye apologize, but at the end of the day the most important thing for them is Kanye getting the help he needs,” a source told Entertainment Tonight.
“Kanye said hurtful things to Kim and the family and in time that will heal, but Kanye’s health is priority,” the source added.
