Kanye West shocked the world when he secretly married Bianca Censori during a “private ceremony” in Beverly Hills, just two months after finalizing his divorce from Kim Kardashian.
While their wedding, which took place in January, was not legally binding, the 46-year-old rapper and the 28-year-old Yeezy architect had been spotted wearing wedding rings for weeks before walking down the aisle.
It’s not clear how long they’ve known each other or how long they’ve been together, but Bianca joined Kanye’s Yeezy company in November 2020.
She is listed as Head of Architecture and secured this position after earning a Masters in Building Design from Melbourne University in Australia. It is unclear if she still works for his clothing company.
Now, eight months after their wedding, takes a look at their tumultuous romance.

In February 2021, Kardashian filed for divorce from her former spouse after nearly seven years of marriage.
The reality TV star submitted the paperwork through her attorney, Laura Wasser, but the date of the split was not listed.
At the time, People reported that Kim was already “ready to move on from the divorce drama.”
The source said that Kim and Kanye’s marriage has been “broken for a long time.”
“Kim feels like she did whatever it took to save it.” She has long contemplated filing for divorce. She was afraid of it too. She really, really did everything she could to avoid submission.
“Last year she was hoping they could sort things out somehow,” they added. “However, over the past few weeks it has been clear that they are done. While there is still love, they are just too different and have different visions for the future.”
Kim and Kanye began dating in 2012, got engaged in 2013 and married in Italy in May 2014 after already giving birth to their oldest daughter, North.
