Kanye West showed off his gold wedding ring again on Saturday as he and his wife were spotted grabbing coffee at a Starbucks in Italy.
The announcement comes shortly after exclusively broke the news that the couple – who were previously believed to only be in a “spiritual marriage” – were legally married.
The couple tied the knot just a month after the rapper’s divorce from 42-year-old Kim Kardashian under a “confidential marriage license,” and the wedding was not recorded in public records.
Kanye, 46, entered the cafe layered in a short-sleeved black T-shirt over a long-sleeved shirt at the cafe in Milan.
The wide gold band was clearly visible on his ring finger.

He completed his look with baggy jeans, black shoes and a black scarf tied around his head to hide his face.
Bianca, 28, appeared in a revealing white body suit with a plunging neckline.
She wore silver leggings and beige heels to complete the look.
The trained architect’s short hair was no longer blonde, but was a more natural-looking dark shade that matched her skin tones.
The news that the marriage is legal comes amid rumors that Bianca has been given strict rules by her husband that she must follow.
“Kanye has a set of rules for Bianca, which include never speaking and wearing what he wants her to wear,” the source exclusively told .
“She is also required to eat certain foods and exercise, even when Kanye isn’t working out.”
“She no longer has a mind of her own and obeys him because he convinced her that they are royal.”
Legal: The rapper began wearing the band after it was revealed that his marriage was legal and Chron reported that the couple married under a confidential marriage certificate in December 2022
Public Registry: A confidential marriage license does not require a wedding to be recorded on the public registry

Customers at Starbucks were stunned as the rapper, who changed his name to Ye in 2018, sat with them in the store for about 45 minutes.
One fan shared the interaction in a TikTok video and wrote: “Can someone tell me why I’m sitting with Kanye?
The Starbucks encounter appeared to be one of the few positive interactions the couple had since visiting Italy.
Many Italians have been critical of her behavior, particularly an apparent sexual act in a gondola in Venice.
The owner of the taxi company that transported Kanye, Bianca and a third person said the driver of the boat was keeping an eye on traffic and had no idea anything was going on.
Because of their indiscretion, they were banned from the company for “life.”
The long-standing confusion surrounding Kanye and Bianca’s intriguing marriage arose after the couple married in California under a “confidential marriage license,” meaning it was not publicly announced.
Many had assumed that the 46-year-old rapper and the 28-year-old Yeezy architect had married in a ceremony that was not legally binding as there appeared to be no evidence of the marriage. They had previously reportedly held a private ceremony in Beverly Hills this year in January without an official marriage license.

However, confirmed on Friday that this was not the case after receiving and reviewing the official document, which lists the date of their marriage as December 20, 2022 – just a month after he filed for divorce in November 2022 his first wife Kim Kardashian.
According to their marriage certificate, the happy couple tied the knot in Palo Alto, California, known as Silicon Valley, and has learned that the couple chose a secret location for the special event.
The document was filed under her full name, Bianca Censori, and simply “Ye” for the rapper, who legally changed his name from Kanye Omari West to the mononym in October 2021.
Ye and Bianca were married by California-based civil servant James Mayfield.
Mayfield offers marriage packages starting at $385 that don’t require a court ceremony. Its website also states that a confidential marriage license does not require the presence of witnesses.
Interestingly, her marital home is listed as his ranch in Wyoming.
The rapper purchased the sprawling $14 million ranch four years ago, but there has been little to no development on the property since then.
Back in July 2020, Ye – who has an estimated net worth of $500 million – began building mysterious domes on the property, which still appear to be unfinished and he has not been seen in many years since purchasing the home shown at this location.
A close friend of the couple explains why the couple decided to have a confidential marriage certificate: “Ye has been a megastar for more than two decades, and his first marriage was to someone who is in front of the camera almost full-time.”
“Bianca and Ye have a completely different vibe.” They are very private, very loving and completely devoted to each other. I think they both enjoy taking time that is just for them.
“For this reason, they were extremely secretive about the details of their wedding day. I don’t think anyone knows exactly how it turned out other than the two of them.
Kanye and Bianca (seen together in August) were officially married, announced on Friday, after tying the knot in a secret ceremony in Pal Alto in December last year – just weeks after his divorce from Kim Kardashian was completed
Private Ceremony: A close friend of the couple told that they “remained extremely tight-lipped about the details of their wedding day.” I don’t think anyone knows exactly how it turned out other than the two of them.

The close friend adds: “They are in love with each other. I can assure you they are very much married.”
One in five marriages in California are now officially classified as “confidential” and do not appear in public records, but they are a legally binding marriage that would require a divorce if the marriage were to end.
It’s still unclear exactly how long the couple had been romantically involved before the wedding, but Bianca joined Kanye’s Yeezy company in November 2020.
A year before his six-year marriage to Kim Kardashian ended, the father of four hired Bianca as an architectural designer for his company Yeezy.
After almost seven years of marriage, Kim filed for divorce from her former spouse in February 2021 with the help of “Disso Queen” Laura Wasser.
Ye then moved on to Bianca, even paying tribute to her by releasing the track “Censori Overload,” a play on her last name.
We now know that the couple was already married at this point in their relationship.
In the song’s lyrics, Ye revealed that he remained celibate before getting married, singing, “And the Bible said, ‘I can’t have sex anymore until I get married.’
The song appeared to reference his breakup with Kim and began with the lines: “Waking up to ‘I can’t do this anymore’ lyrics” and added: “I know it’s in the headlines / Why she wants to leave.” “
Ye and his wife Bianca then went public with their romance in January, with his new bride catching the world’s attention in a series of very revealing outfits.

This summer, the couple caused a stir during their European vacation, causing controversy with Bianca’s naked clothing, especially in Italy.
The loved-up couple received backlash for a very amorous boat trip in August – where the pair were caught red-handed.
They were both charged with public indecency by Italian authorities on August 28 after Ye was snapped with his pants down and his Australian bride between his legs during a water taxi ride on the city’s famous canals.
After the shocking sighting, the pair were immediately condemned for blatantly lewd behavior in front of dozens of gawking tourists.
