Kanye West Has A Pretty Colorful Dating History, Before and After Kim Kardashian

Rapper Kanye West is an enigma. Musically, he is close to the genius he claims to be and has been one of the many voices that have changed hip-hop. His life has been tabloid fodder for years, primarily due to his unpredictable behavior.

His love life has also become tabloid fodder thanks to his high-profile relationships, and he has dated a variety of women over the nearly two decades of his fame. Here is a look back at Kanye West's dating history.

Kanye dated fashion designer Alexis Phifer for six years and was even engaged for a little over a year. Things fell apart, however, after the death of Donda West, Kanye's mother.

During their relationship, Kanye and Alexis broke up for a short while. During that time, Kanye dated Brooke Crittendon, a reality TV producer who also appeared on the BET series Harlem Heights.

Kanye met model Amber Rose after his relationship with Alexis came to an official end. Their relationship made Amber a household name, which she has said is the only thing she got out of their relationship.

Technically, this was not a relationship. However, the story is wild enough to merit a position on this list.

In the past, Kenya Moore went on a date with Kanye. What happened on the date was comically uncomfortable, including him leaving Kenya alone in his living room while he tended to himself in his basement.

She told the story on Carlos King's podcast, Reality with the King.

The first relationship Kanye was in that made it to marriage was with Kim Kardashian. Kim and Kanye had four kids during their marriage: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. They appeared as a family on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which ended the same year Kim filed for divorce in 2021.

Kanye dated model Irina Shayk for a few months during the summer of 2021. The couple traveled together to Paris before parting ways. Fun fact? Irina has a child with actor Bradley Cooper.

Eccentric is the perfect word to describe the relationship Kanye had with actress and model Julia Fox. The duo baffled everyone with their unique fashion choices but ultimately broke up two months after meeting.

Julia has spoken out about their relationship, saying, "It just seems like he had a lot to work on, and I just don't have time for it or energy. I don't have the bandwidth or emotional capacity for it."

Kanye's love life was pretty busy in 2022. Several months following his split with Julia Fox, he began dating model Chaney Jones. Many people began referring to Chaney as a Kim Kardashian lookalike, which she says is completely untrue.

It's hard to agree with her, as she does bear a resemblance to the reality star.

Kanye and Bianca Cesori got married a month after his divorce from Kim was finalized. The couple met at the end of 2022, and he fell so hard for her that he even wrote a song about it. Their relationship captured the attention of the masses as Bianca's sense of style is all skin. There are those who think Kanye has brainwashed Bianca and controls everything she wears, does, and goes, but there is no evidence that proves that theory. His banning her from social media has added fuel to the fire.
