Kanye West – Compares Kim Kardashian To Queen Elizabeth
Ever since Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from Kanye in February 2021, West has repeatedly turned to Instagram to share his views. And at times, the 45-year-old rapper sparked a backlash with his cruel comments. But Kanye’s newest Instagram post shows his regrets in losing his 41-year-old former wife.
And even though Kim got declared legally single back in March 2022, the rapper referenced London mourning the death of Queen Elizabeth II in sharing how he feels. West apparently has followed the heartbreak so many in London evidenced after the Queen died. And he wrote in an Instagram Story reproduced on Reddit, “London I know how you feel[.] I lost my queen too.”
However, Kanye sparked a debate among fans about his post. For instance, some recalled how West repeatedly slammed Kim for the way that she parents their four children. And others remembered his cruelty to Kardashian’s now ex boyfriend, Pete Davidson. As a result, several of the rapper’s followers argued that his mourning comes too late to achieve a reconciliation with Kim.

Kanye West – Baffles Fans With Comment About Queen Elizabeth II
But some fans felt that West actually wanted to try to send a message to Kim. And so he sought to do so by posting on his Instagram and hoping she would translate. For instance, one fan wrote that Kanye actually meant to send Kardashian a message that read, “England just lost their queen. Got me thinking about how I lost you and there’s no one here to take your place.”
However, others just felt baffled by how West came up with that comment. For example, one wrote, “This is mad funny tho 😭. Like how does he think of this s**t?” And another agreed, “No seriously, he’s hilarious.”
But some fans feel sorry for Kanye. And those sympathizers noted that West seems genuinely unhappy about losing Kim. “I disagree with a lot of the things he says,” noted one such sympathetic fan. “But damn, he makes it hard to dislike him.” And another follower praised Kanye for his “transparency and honesty with his feelings.”
However, some followers slammed West for comparing Kim to Queen Elizabeth. “Imagine comparing Kim Kardashian to the literal QUEEN OF ENGLAND💀,” wrote one critic. And others felt that West posted the Instagram Story to try to get media attention. “He’s so desperate to have a headline made about him, & he hasn’t really been relevant since he did ET with Katy Perry,” wrote another critic.
