The ongoing tension between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West has been well-documented, especially after their highly publicized divorce in 2021. Although they’ve tried to co-parent their four children — North, 11, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 5 — in a way that minimizes conflict, their personal differences continue to be a source of friction. Sources suggest that these disagreements are far from over and that Kanye has not shied away from using these moments in the production of his upcoming film.
In a recent statement, the source noted, “Kanye’s relationship with Kim and her family is not good, and while she tries to keep the peace with him, they’ve had arguments over the phone that could end up being used in the doc. And he doesn’t care about being popular or liked or politically correct.”
As the documentary continues to be filmed, it remains to be seen how much of their personal struggles will make it into the final product. With Kanye’s public persona and divisive opinions, many believe the documentary could spark controversy.

The Documentary: A New Era for Kanye West
In Whose Name? promises to offer a raw and unfiltered look into Kanye’s life, which is said to cover his public transformation over the past six years. According to Variety, the documentary will explore Kanye’s rise to fame, his evolution into a multi-billionaire, and his complex relationship with fame and freedom. However, as Kanye invites viewers into his world, the film is also expected to touch on sensitive and personal topics, including his marriage to Kim Kardashian and their subsequent divorce.
The documentary is being filmed with a budget of over a billion dollars, a source revealed, and will be narrated through the lens of 18-year-old Nicolas Ballesteros, who was given an iPhone to document Kanye’s journey. The film is set to reveal previously unseen footage of Kanye’s life, including the highs and lows of his career, his controversies, and his struggles with mental health.
In the documentary’s description, it’s noted that Kanye will confront “provocative opinions, grand visions, and bold contrarianism” that have defined him as one of the world’s most controversial artists. Furthermore, the film will also explore the broader cultural forces at play, including the role of corporate exploitation, racial issues, and the psychological challenges of living the American Dream.
Kim Kardashian’s Concerns: What Will Be Exposed?
Kim Kardashian’s primary concern, according to sources, is that Kanye could drag their children into the spotlight through his documentary. With the kids already featured on Kim’s reality show, The Kardashians, it’s feared that Kanye may involve them in his own project, further complicating their already fraught family dynamics.
The insider explained, “He could get the kids involved, which, of course, would be Kim’s worst nightmare. But there’s not much she can do about it. They appear on her show, so she can’t use that argument, and they admire their dad, so odds are they’re going to want to be on his show.”
Despite the potential for conflict, Kim has remained committed to co-parenting in a way that minimizes the impact on their children. She has continuously emphasized the importance of her children maintaining a good relationship with their father, and she has avoided speaking negatively about Kanye in their presence.
Will Kanye’s Documentary Further Divide the Family?
The relationship between Kanye West and Kim Kardashian has been one of the most high-profile in recent years, and their divorce only added fuel to the media fire. As Kanye continues to make headlines, many wonder if the documentary will serve as a way for him to address his past, his marriage to Kim, and their contentious split.
Kim Kardashian has made it clear in various interviews that she intends to protect her children from any potential fallout from her divorce. “One day my kids will thank me for not sitting here and bashing their dad when I could,” she shared during an appearance on Angie Martinez’s IRL podcast in 2022. “They’ll thank me and I’ll privately answer anything that they want to know. But it’s not my place anymore to jump in.”
Despite the personal differences between Kanye and Kim, both have agreed to prioritize their children’s well-being and maintain a united front when it comes to raising them. However, Kanye’s new documentary raises questions about how much of their personal lives will be shared with the public and whether this will impact their co-parenting dynamic.
The Future of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian’s Relationship
As Kanye prepares to release his documentary, it’s clear that his journey through fame and personal struggles will continue to be a central theme in his public life. Whether the documentary sheds light on his relationship with Kim Kardashian or serves as a platform for him to express his controversial views, it’s certain that the fallout from this film will be closely watched.
For Kim Kardashian, the documentary presents a challenging situation. While she has worked hard to maintain a healthy relationship with Kanye for the sake of their children, the prospect of having their personal lives exposed once again is something she will have to navigate carefully. Whether this documentary will further complicate their relationship remains to be seen, but it’s clear that Kanye West is ready to tell his side of the story — and it may have lasting consequences for everyone involved.
