In the February 20, 2025, episode of “The Kardashians,” viewers witnessed an unexpected reunion between Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband, Kanye West, as they came together to support their daughter, North West. This marked Kanye’s first appearance on the reality series since their divorce was finalized in 2022.

The episode centered around 11-year-old North’s debut performance at the Hollywood Bowl, celebrating the 30th anniversary of Disney’s “The Lion King.” Both Kim and Kanye were present backstage, collaborating to ensure their daughter’s success. Kim, embracing her role as a “momager,” acknowledged the importance of maintaining “good vibes” with Kanye for the sake of their children. She emphasized their mutual desire for the best outcomes for North and her siblings: Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.

During the preparations, Kanye actively contributed to the production, suggesting changes to the show’s visuals to enhance the overall experience. Kim appreciated his input, noting that his ideas would lead to a better production.

This collaborative effort comes despite recent tensions between the former couple. Earlier in February, reports indicated that Kim found Kanye’s social media behavior “disturbing” and chose to distance herself from his public controversies. However, their joint appearance at North’s event demonstrates a commitment to co-parenting and supporting their children’s endeavors.

Kim also addressed potential criticisms regarding North’s opportunity, acknowledging that public perceptions might attribute her daughter’s role to nepotism. She defended North’s passion and talent, expressing that if anyone wants to criticize a child enjoying themselves, they are welcome to do so.

The episode highlighted the family’s ability to navigate personal differences for the benefit of their children, showcasing a united front in supporting North’s artistic pursuits.
