Kim’s ’emotional stress’

The temporary suspension from Instagram comes nearly one month after West’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, claimed West’s social media posts have caused her “emotional distress” in court docs.

Kardashian was seemingly referencing the multiple posts West has published on Instagram attacking the reality TV star’s new boyfriend, Pete Davidson, among other people, including her mom Kris Jenner’s boyfriend, Corey Gamble.
