Kanye West ‘broke down’ and whisked his eldest daughter, North, on holiday without his wife, Bianca Censori, after being left distressed at the 10-year-old’s pleas to live a simpler life with him, insiders have claimed.
The rapper’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian, with whom he has four children including North, recently recalled how the youngster threw a tantrum as she bemoaned living in her $60 million Calabasas mansion with security, nannies and chefs.
Kim’s comments, which aired on Hulu reality show The Kardashians, reportedly prompted Kanye, 46, to ditch his wife for a father-daughter trip to Dubai and Saudi Arabia after realizing how much North ‘needs him’.
‘Kanye needed to spend time with North,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively.

The rapper’s wife Bianca Censori, 28 (pictured in June) was ‘not invited on this trip,’ according to insiders

‘After he saw what Kim said on the show he broke down because he realizes how much North needs him.
‘Hearing this from Kim about North angered Kanye and made him very upset. North is definitely a daddy’s girl and Kanye misses not seeing her every single day.’
Bianca, who has reportedly ‘done her best to get to know North,’ flew back home to Melbourne, Australia, after ‘it was made clear to her that Kanye would only be taking North with him.’
‘Kanye needed to spend time with North and Bianca understood,’ the source added.
DailyMail.com has reached out to reps for Kanye and Bianca.
Kim, 43, opened up about North’s tantrums as she discussed the difficulties of single parenting with her sister, Kourtney, on their reality show.
The SKIMS businesswoman also has Saint, seven; Chicago, five; and Psalm, four, with the controversial musician.
‘North, she’ll go to her dad’s, she’ll be like, “Dad is the best. He has it all figured out. He doesn’t have a nanny. He doesn’t have a chef. He doesn’t have security. He lives in an apartment,”‘ she said.

‘And she’ll start crying, “Why don’t you have an apartment? I can’t believe we don’t have an apartment.”‘
The comments are believed to have irked Bianca, who accused Kim of putting her children’s safety ‘in jeopardy’ by divulging information about Kanye’s apparent lack of security.
‘Bianca thinks it was quite tacky of Kim to divulge this information on The Kardashians and, by doing so, she was actually putting her kids’ safety in jeopardy,’ a separate source previously told DailyMail.com.
‘The public doesn’t need to know that their kids would be without protection at any time.
‘She just wants Kim to stop talking about her husband, Kanye, in a negative light to try and make herself look better.’
Kanye married Bianca — who worked at his company, Yeezy, as an architect — in December 2022 just one month after his divorce from Kim was finalized.
Earlier this month she was reunited with two longtime girlfriends during a solo trip home to Australia for the first time since secretly tying the knot with the controversial rapper.
Her friends reportedly staged a successful intervention to raise concerns about their relationship, with insiders claiming she is fully aware of her husband’s ‘controlling ways.’

‘Everyone is just glad that they finally were able to get through to Bianca,’ another source previously told DailyMail.com.
‘Her friends let her know exactly how they feel and they told her that she needs to wake the f*** up.
‘She knows that she has shut out those close to her and she is also starting to see through the smoky mirrors of her marriage. She is aware of Kanye’s controlling ways and she is starting to see things from an outside perspective.’
Their reunion was documented on Instagram, with one of Bianca’s friends sharing a picture of the three of them alongside the caption ‘Mrs Ye’ – a nod to the rapper who legally changed his name from Kanye Omari West to the mononym in October 2021.
Showing off her penchant for bizarre attire, Bianca was wearing a plunging black top which she accessorized with an oversized fur hat.
Concerns for Bianca started circulating this summer after pictures emerged of the designer in a series of eccentric outfits and engaging in lewd embraces with her husband.
A few of her friends managed to contact her at the time, but she allegedly told them to ‘f*** off,’ a close friend told DailyMail.com in September.

‘She’s shut everyone out and told one of her former friends to “f*** off” when they tried to ask if she was okay,’ they said.
‘She is saying that her friends are just jealous of her stardom.’
The comments came after Bianca was pictured in Florence wearing nude tights and carrying a purple pillow to cover her breasts.
She was also filmed engaging in what appeared to be a risqué act during a boat ride through Venice, Italy, with Kanye baring his naked buttocks to eagle-eyed tourists while Bianca nestled her head in his lap.
Last month, DailyMail.com was told that Kanye has instructed his wife to ‘never speak’ — and has issued a set of rules for her to live by, including specific foods she can eat and what she can wear.
