Kanye West has issued an apology to Kim Kardashian
Kanye West has apologised to Kim Kardashian for speaking publicly about private family matters. A week ago, the rapper delivered an emotional speech at his first presidential campaign rally before tweeting a series of allegations directed at Kim and also Kris Jenner. He also said he wanted to divorce his wife of six years.
Returning to Twitter over the weekend, Kanye issued a public apology to Kim and asked her to forgive him.
He tweeted: "I would like to apologise to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter. I did not cover her like she has covered me. To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me."
While Kim didn't publicly acknowledge the apology, she did like a message from a fan who wrote, "I love you both so much" in response to the post.
Kanye's tweet came a few days after Kim released a statement addressing the rapper's mental health.
"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 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," the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star began.

She continued: "He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressure being being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder. Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions."
Kim ended the statement by asking for "compassion and empathy" and thanked fans for showing their support.
Kanye appears to still be at the family home in Wyoming while he works on his upcoming album, while Kim is currently in California with their four kids - North, seven, Saint, four, Chicago, two, and Psalm, 14 months.
