After a tumultuous few months in their relationship, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West rekindled the romance with a private dinner for two, which took place in what looks like a parking lot outside an enormous tent.
West shared a photo of his night out with his wife on Twitter, showing a table with two chairs illuminated exclusively by a car’s headlights outside of a huge tent. Through a small circular opening in the tent’s wall, a brilliant blue interior and what appears to be a natural-wood upright piano can be seen, perhaps set up so the rapper could serenade Kardashian after their meal. He captioned the image, “Dinner for 2,” with a dove emoji. The reality star retweeted her husband’s post, adding two dove emojis of her own.
This romantic gesture comes after a very difficult summer for the couple. Over the past few months, West has tweeted out personal information about his wife, the status of their marriage, and most recently was temporarily suspended from the platform after he shared the phone number of Forbes Media’s chief content officer, Randall Lane, and a video of what appears to be him peeing on his own Grammy Award. All of which reportedly left Kardashian feeling “at the end of her rope—again.”
Just over a week ago, a source told People, “It’s the same thing over and over and over again. He’s on very thin ice with her right now, and she’s truly trying to decide what to do to protect the kids, but also her own sanity. The whole thing is discouraging and difficult for her.” They added, “For such a powerful woman, she feels very powerless, and she hates it. She loves Kanye very much, and he just doesn’t realize how much pain he’s causing her.” Hopefully, the couple was able to hash out all of these issues during their intimate meal under a Yeezy tent and night sky.
