“She wants to help him and has been trying for over a month now. Kanye’s behavior has progressively gotten worse.”
The insider also explained that Kim’s sister Kourtney is taking care of her eldest children North, 7, and Saint, 4, so she can “deal with the situation at home.”
“Kim doesn’t want the kids knowing an ounce of this situation or seeing their dad in that light,” the source told E!.
“It is very bad between them right now and Kim feels defeated and helpless. Kanye doesn’t think he needs help. He has many friends who have been checking in on him.”
The insider explained: “Kim decided to speak out because her heart hurts for Kanye and anyone dealing with mental illness. She also wanted to wanted to dispel the ongoing misinformation being spread.”
“She tries to keep their family matters private and is very upset he lashed out against the family.”
The source also noted that “there are no serious talks of divorce yet,” however “Kim has brought it up several times, but she isn’t planning on filing until Kanye stabilizes.”
“If anything, Kanye would most likely be the one to abruptly file for divorce,” the insider said. “Kim is not planning on leaving him during a time like this when he is vulnerable.”
