As for the couple's current living arrangement, the insider confirms that Kim and Kanye have been living separately for a few months now. The source says their four children, North West, 7, Saint West, 5, Chicago West, 2, and Psalm West, 20 months, are staying with Kim at their family home in Calabasas, Calif. while Kanye lives at the Wyoming ranch.
And contrary to reports, the source reveals that Kanye is not at odds with the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner family, who he "loves" and is "super close" to.
Additionally, the second source explains that Kanye wasn't present for some of the holidays, including the Christmas Eve gathering at Kourtney Kardashian's house, because of "other work commitments which he had to travel for," with the exception of one day he spent in Wyoming.
A source previously told E! News that Kim is hesitant to file for divorce, because "she wants to make sure she's making the right decision for the kids."
"It's not about the marriage anymore, she'll always care for Kanye but it's over between them," the insider explained. "Kim is only focused on what's best for the kids. It's a tough decision for her and she's figuring it out."
Neither Kanye nor Kim have publicly addressed their current relationship status. E! News reached out to their reps for comment.
