Kanye West returned to Keeping Up With the Kardashians on Thursday night, amid his divorce from Kim Kardashian.
The episode was filmed just three months before Kim filed for divorce from the rapper on February 19, 2021.
In the latest episode, Kanye helped Kim surprise her mother Kris Jenner with 65 designer looks to celebrate her 65th birthday.
With stylist Danielle Levi, the couple selected outfits from Jean-Paul Gaultier to Dior.
Kris was overwhelmed by their thoughtful gift, and said: “I cannot believe what I am walking into. This is one of the biggest surprises I’ve ever had in my entire life.”
“It’s certainly so generous, so kind, but the time and the energy that Kim took is the most amazing gift I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Kim filed to divorce her husband Kanye West on February 19, after almost seven years of marriage.
The former couple are requesting joint legal and physical custody of their four children – North, 7, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.
Fans feared the couple were headed for a divorce last July, when Kanye spoke about almost aborting their daughter North during a presidential campaign rally in South Carolina.
Kanye said: “Even if my wife wants to divorce me after this speech, she brought North into the world even when I didn’t want to. She stood up and she protected that child.”
At the time, sources claimed Kim was “furious” that Kanye had “shared something so private.”
After the rally, the Yeezy founder posted a number of shocking statements on Twitter, and he even accused Kim of trying to get him “locked up”.
The rapper also claimed he’s been “trying to get divorced” from Kim ever since she met Meek Mill back in 2018 to discuss prison reform, and he also appeared to slam his mother-in-law Kris Jenner.
Kanye later deleted the tweets, and a few hours later Kim released a statement addressing her husband’s behaviour.
In the statement, the reality star opened up about her husband’s mental health – explaining how “incredibly complicated and painful” it can be to struggle with bipolar disorder.
The mother-of-four also asked the public to show their family “compassion” during such a difficult time.
Days later, the 43-year-old posted a public apology to Kim on Twitter.
The couple then put on a united front by taking their kids on a “make or break” trip to the Dominican Republic.
But since then, their relationship has deteriorated, and Kim finally decided to file for divorce on February 19, 2021.
Kim and Kanye tied the knot back in 2014, and the couple share four kids – North, 7, Saint, 5, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.
On the latest episode of the Gosscast, Alexandra Ryan and Kendra Becker talk the return of Love Island, Real Housewives, and the final season of KUWTK.
The girls also talk through some of the biggest stories of the week – including 2fm’s new breakfast show, the chaos of Eurovision, and Maura Higgins’ rumoured new love interest…
