Kanye West Defends Buying A House Next To Kim Kardashian

Kanye West says he bought a house next to Kim Kardashian to remain close to his kids.

Kanye West says that he purchased a home next to Kim Kardashian so it’d be easier to stay close with his kids, not to spy on his ex-wife, as he says some media outlets have implied. West discussed his family situation during a new interview with Hollywood Unlocked.

“My solace comes from seeing my kids and getting a solid schedule,” West explains in a clip from the upcoming interview. “That’s why I even got the house. They flipped it in the media like it was something wrong with me getting a house next to my kids.”
