Kim Kardashian 'threatened' by daughter's bond with Kanye West's new wife, says expert

Kim Kardashian might be feeling "threatened" by Kanye West's new wife, a relationship expert exclusively tells us.

Kanye and Bianca Censori's relationship has been going from strength to strength since getting married and it seems the rapper's new wife has the approval of his daughter North West.

Bianca was seen walking hand-in-hand with the nine-year-old as they headed to the rapper's surprise party in Los Angeles.

Bianca then spent more time with the ten-year-old during their trip to Japan, with Kanye.

The trio were spotted out and about in Tokyo as they took in the sights and enjoyed a bit of retail therapy. Kanye, legally known as Ye, also took the time to take some pictures with fans.

As North and Bianca get closer, our relationsip expert believes Kim finds watching their blossoming friendship "challenging."

"It can be incredibly challenging for a biological parent to witness their children developing a connection with a stepparent. While most may express a desire for their children to be surrounded by positive influences, feelings of jealousy are natural and likely play a part in Kim's emotions," Kendra Capalbo LICSW, Sex and couples therapist at Esclusiva Couples Retreats tells us.

"Despite her intellectual understanding that it's beneficial for her children to have a good relationship with their stepmother, she may also feel threatened by this bond," Kendra adds, before continuing: "In today's age of social media, even for the average person, a biological parent is more likely to come across happy photos of their ex and their children with the new partner.

"In Kim's case, where everything is heavily publicized, this experience is amplified to an unimaginable level. It's impossible to completely shield Kim's children from social media, and if they perceive that she harbors negative feelings towards Bianca, it may evoke a sense of guilt in them for forming a connection with her."

But it seems Kanye hasn't been on her mind this week as Kim admitted to throwing back nearly a dozen shots at billionaire Michael Rubin's annual Fourth of July party in the Hamptons.
