Kim Kardashian took to Instagram to release a statement addressing Kanye's recent behavior, including tweeting about wanting to divorce her and taking aim at her mother, Kris Jenner.
She wrote, "As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar 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. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health."
Kim went on to speak about the powerlessness of getting help for an adult loved one with bipolar disorder, and she added that people can often be judgemental of the situation. Given Kanye's celebrity, Kim stated that she understands how Kanye's recent statements have caused a stir, but she clarified that "those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions."
