Kanye West’s online war against estranged wife Kim Kardashian and her new beau Pete Davidson reached new heights on Wednesday, March 16, as the rapper made fresh new claims about their relationship.
Taking to Instagram to share multiple incriminatory posts about his ongoing one-sided feud with Kim’s current beau Pete, Kanye shared a screenshot of a fan’s comment on his profile.
Addressing Pete as ‘Skete’ in his post, Kanye wrote: “I’m really concerned that SKETE will get my kids mom hooked on drugs.”
Kanye also claimed that Pete needed rehab often, writing, “He’s in rehab every two months.”
The post is just one out of a number of rambling posts on Kanye’s Instagram, one of which features a screenshot of an article headline about Pete that reads, “Pete Davidson enrages audience with jokes about having sex with a baby.”
He captioned that post: “Yet another reason why SKETE gotta stay away from my children.”
Kanye West have however been temporarily suspended from Instagram after the attack.
A spokesperson for Meta, the company that owns the social media platform, told TMZ that the rapper’s posts violated their policies on hate speech, harassment and bullying.
West’s account will be suspended for 24 hours, meaning he cannot post content, comment on posts or send direct messages. The platform may seek additional steps against West if further violations occur.
Despite the suspension, Instagram users can still see West’s account and make comments on his posts.
Meanwhile, Pete Davidson, who has made headlines recently for his new relationship with Kim Kardashian, is going to space as part of a six-member team on Blue Origin’s next flight next week, the company says.
The “Saturday Night Live” star will be the only non-paying guest on the voyage aboard the New Shepard rocket, which is set to blast off from the company’s Launch Site One in West Texas on March 23 at 8:30 am local time (1330 GMT).
The other crewmates are CEO and investor Marty Allen; husband and wife Sharon and Marc Hagle, who run a nonprofit and business, respectively; teacher and explorer Jim Kitchen, and George Nield, who founded a company that promotes commercial space activity.
The ticket prices remain a secret, as they have since the first flight.
During the 11-minute round trip, passengers experience several minutes of weightlessness and can observe the curvature of the Earth. The capsule floats back to the surface on giant parachutes for a gentle desert landing.
