Kim Kardashian reportedly took swift action to protect her daughter, North West, by calling for an emergency custody hearing after learning that controversial figures Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate were scheduled to visit Kanye West during a recent meeting with their daughter.
According to TMZ, Kardashian abruptly ended North’s visit with her father after security informed her that the Tate brothers, who were recently released from detention after facing sex crime charges abroad, would soon arrive at the meeting spot.
The Tate brothers have been sued for sexual assault in both the U.K. and the U.S., though they have not been convicted and continue to maintain their innocence.
Kardashian and West, alongside their respective legal teams and a mediator, convened for a custody discussion on Friday, March 14.
The meeting also included conversations about North’s recent involvement in Kanye’s new single, “LONELY ROADS STILL GO TO SUNSHINE,” where she appeared alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs.

The Tate brothers’ visit was reportedly another key topic of the hearing. Additionally, Combs is currently facing serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, and remains in custody at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center.
As the situation unfolded, it became evident that Kanye West’s recent behavior was also a source of concern.
West, known for his controversial public statements, has made a series of offensive and inflammatory remarks on social media, including antisemitic and homophobic comments.
He also stirred further controversy by alleging that Kardashian and her family were involved in child sex trafficking, referencing North’s involvement in a TikTok video and an FKA Twigs song.
West’s actions took a disturbing turn earlier this week when he shared a post questioning the mental capacity of Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s 7½-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir, using offensive language.
In response, Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s mother, condemned West’s words, calling them “ignorance and evil,” which appeared to directly address his comments about her grandchildren.
With tensions high, the situation involving West, Kardashian, and their children continues to make headlines, leaving many wondering how this custody battle will unfold moving forward.
