Kim Kardashian held at gunpoint by police during paranoid episode of ex-husband Ye

A new biography titled Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created the Future, written by Jonathan Van Meter, reveals a harrowing incident during a past vacation in Uganda. During a paranoid episode, Ye, formerly Kanye West, requested that local police search every room at their resort. The author reports that during this search, a police officer held a gun to Kim Kardashian's head. Van Meter, who interviewed Kardashian extensively over five years, notes that while public photos from that time suggested a happy couple, the reality was marked by severe instability.

Kardashian reflects on her former marriage, which lasted from 2014 to 2022, and explains the complexities of co-parenting their four children. Although she maintains minimal contact with Ye to keep their current interactions peaceful, she remains deeply concerned about his long-term mental health. Kardashian expresses a pessimistic outlook regarding his well-being but emphasizes her continued hope for the sake of their children. The book highlights the heavy emotional burden she carries while trying to protect their family from the ongoing struggles.
