How Bianca Censori’s split from Kanye West could kickstart her new Karadashian-esque career

From parading around nearly naked in wildly inappropriate locations such as Starbucks and a shopping mall, to a notorious boat trip in Venice where she appeared to be performing a sex act, Bianca Censori’s short-lived marriage to Kanye West sparked both outrage and concern in equal measure. 

Now, after months of critics claiming she’s being controlled by the rapper, 47, who dressed her in near-naked outfits, they have reportedly split and are planning a divorce, according to TMZ.

The Australian Yeezy architect, 29, is reportedly seeking support from her family Down Under, but this is unlikely to be the last we see of Bianca, because if there’s one silver lining to be taken from the ‘failed’ marriage, it’s been the huge boost to her profile.  

Other ex-partners of rapper Kanye West, including Amber Rose and Julia Fox, have blossomed in their own right after cutting ties with the LA-based rapper, a fact that is probably not lost on Bianca, who was often compared to Kayne’s most famous ex Kim Kardashian. 

In echoes of the Kardashian clan, Bianca also has two equally glamorous sisters, Angelina and Alyssia, while her mother Alexandra has gushed over her ‘beautiful girls’ in response to a sultry snap Instagram, clearly approving of their sexy image.  

With the Censori clan possessing good looks, sparkling Instagram profiles and a love of controversial rappers – Angelina has been pictured cosying up to Chris Brown –  there might just be a new family for the Kardashians to watch out for.

While Kim’s clan is common knowledge thanks to the global success of reality series Keeping Up with The Kardashians, Bianca’s family has only recently been thrust into the spotlight.

Throwback photos posted to social media show Bianca posing and partying alongside her siblings Alyssia and Angelina who – like the Kardashian sisters – appear to like the finer things in life.

Bianca’s youngest sister Angelina is also a model like Bianca and appears to be following in her older sister’s footsteps with her daring sense of fashion.

One Instagram photo of Angelina shows the brunette posing on a Gold Coast balcony dressed in a bold denim corset top and black leggings. Another shows her dressed in a seductive corset and posing with her body against a wall.

She shares her sister’s interest in high-end fashion, sporting several luxury brands on social media, including two black leather Balenciaga handbags, one of which retails for over £2,000.

And in July it came to light that Bianca’s isn’t the only family member acquainted with a controversial artist, after Angelina shared a picture with Chris Brown on Instagram.

Alyssia has kept a lower profile compared to her two sisters, with a private Instagram although she did speak publicly to say said she was ‘super happy’ for Bianca and Kanye after their wedding.

Meanwhile, Bianca’s mother Alexandra has kept up appearances and gained media attraction for impressive style and youthful looks.

Meanwhile, Britain’s leading PR guru Mark Borkowski told MailOnline today that Bianca is in a perfet position to cast herself as a feminist icon and ‘survivor’ of her marriage.

‘Bianca might end up being cast as a survivor of Kanye’s public experimentations, while Kanye, in turn, may be rebranded as the artist who went too far’, he said.

Mr Borkowski has said he is interested to see if Bianca claims that she has been ‘exploited’ as Kanye’s pawn should their marriage collapse, after wearing lewd and outlandish outfits at her husband’s behest.

She could even become a feminist icon as a ‘survivor’, he said.

‘Bianca has been depicted as a sort of accessory in Kanye’s avant-garde, borderline dystopian fashion experiment. The highly curated, often bizarre public appearances—her barely clothed, him in oversized, futuristic garb—for me reeked of a power dynamic that could easily be spun into a “woman as prop” narrative. 

‘Should they part ways, this narrative will come charging to the forefront, with critics quick to label her a pawn in Kanye’s erratic public persona machine.

‘If Bianca decides to speak out, or even just make subtle moves, the world could hear a very different story of their relationship. If she plays her cards right, the once-victim narrative could become one of empowerment—her escaping the clutches of Kanye’s controlling, creative chaos. 

‘The exploitation angle may not only focus on her but also flip back on Kanye’s entire history of relationships, his treatment of women under the guise of “art.”.’

In 2022, Kanye shocked the world after secretly marrying Bianca during a private ceremony in Beverly Hills, just two months after finalizing his divorce from Kim Kardashian.

At first it was assumed they were not legally married, but in October last year it emerged they had wed under a ‘confidential marriage’ license in California, meaning that it was not made public record.

It’s not clear how long they had known each other or how long they had been dating, but Bianca joined Kanye’s Yeezy company in November 2020 as the Head of Architecture, a position she secured after obtaining a master’s in building design at Melbourne University.

As they made their first appearances as newlyweds, the public quickly formed strong opinions on the marriage, with the spotlight on Bianca’s newfound sense of style.

Her fashion choices quickly made headlines across the globe after she was spotted parading around various locations in a variety of see-through outfits that left little to the imagination.

Critics branded the images of Bianca in the next-to-nothing ensembles as ‘disturbing’ and speculated that Kanye had taken charge of Bianca’s appearance.

Carly Dober, director of the Australian Association of Psychologists told MailOnline that Kanye was attempting to dictate what his wife wore, in the same way he’d done with Kim. 

Dober pointed to a controversial scene that aired on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, in which Kanye decided to ‘restyle’ his then-girlfriend Kim Kardashian.

‘There are multiple scenes with him throwing out all of the clothes that she said she loved, with her crying saying this was very difficult,’ Dober said.

‘While it is not clear how much of this was dramatized for the cameras and viewers, the fact remains that Kanye and Kim both publicly stated he had very clear ideas of how Kim should be dressing, and her style did change throughout the relationship.’

It’s a reality that Kanye’s ex Amber Rose also admitted to grappling with, who claimed he wanted her to ‘dress very sexy’ during their two-year relationship, despite her being ‘conservative’ from an early age.

The model, 40, opened up about her relationship on a March episode of the Just B With Bethenny Frankel podcast, saying: ‘That was my first relationship with a celebrity ever but also in the public eye. And he knows a lot about fashion, and he always wanted me to dress very sexy,’ she said.

The TV personality added that at the time of the relationship, she was ‘young’ and went along with it, although it was far from who she was.

At the start of their relationship, Amber was 24 years old, while West – also known as Ye – was in his early thirties.

Rose also explained that the ‘sexy’ image that she had been pushed into while dating Kanye affected her even after their separation.

‘So, when I was out on my own, without my first relationship that kind of brought me to the light, that’s what they wanted from me.’

She recalled, ‘I would have producers saying, ‘We want to do this video for MTV, and we want you at the pool, with a bikini on, martini in your hand.”

‘And I’m like, ‘Ugh, I’m so not her.’ Like, I’m so not her and I get what I come off as, but I am so not her. And they’re like, ‘Well I guess you don’t want to do it then.”

The former couple notably dated from 2008 until their messy split took place in 2010.

Like her predecessors, Kanye’s ex Julia Fox, who he dated in 2022, also underwent an image overhaul.

Fox told Interview Magazine: ‘After meeting him, a couple of days later, all my s— was in boxes, gone. It was so cathartic.’

‘It wasn’t like I was just packing up my old clothes, it was like I was packing up my old life. I was like making that very conscious decision to really put everything in the box. To let go of the past.’

‘I’m really surrendering,’ she told the magazine. Julia added: ‘For someone like me who’s such a control freak and always so used to taking care of myself, to just let go and be taken care of is foreign at this point in life.’

In Bianca’s case, her family and friends were said to be among the critics who feared the architectural designer would be ‘used’ to ‘promote sexual indecency’ by the controversial musician. 

‘Bianca’s family was willing to give Kanye the benefit of the doubt after her mom’s recent visit to LA,’ an insider exclusively told MailOnline.

‘They were even trying to accept that he was not forcing Bianca to do anything. They were aware of Kanye and Bianca’s project to create and sell their own brand of clothing.

‘But with two feminist sisters and an equally feminist mother, it is hard to rationalize or accept her involvement in this new venture.’

They continued: ‘The fact that he is dragging her into the adult film world with him and using her as a billboard already to promote sexual indecency is absolutely appalling and very worrying.

‘They feel he has convinced her that this is a good idea because it will make them wealthier.’

‘For Bianca’s sake they were willing to overlook his… inappropriate behavior.

The criticism regarding Kanye and Bianca’s relationship escalated in August last year when the rapper was caught flashing his bare derrière during a very amorous boat ride in Italy.

Having already sparked fury from locals over Censori’s barely-there ensembles, West took things even further by exposing his naked buttocks in front of gawking tourists during a boat ride.

Images of the couple showed the rapper seated at the back of the river taxi while Censori appeared to be nestled with her head in his lap.

The couple appeared to be blissfully unaware of the groups of tourists sailing past them with their phones held aloft as they put on their amorous display, which was only the latest in a line of boundary-breaking public outings that caused scandal among Italian locals.

Bianca and Kanye’s relationship also attracted comments from Kim Kardashian, who warned her ex-husband to tell his new wife to ‘cover up’ and refrain from wearing her scandalous outfits around their children, insiders claimed.

‘Kim instructed Kanye to never let Bianca dress like that around their kids,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘She is truly surprised that Kanye would let his wife leave the house like that.’ 

Still, Bianca continued to parade in see-through ensembles, and in July this year, she faced an indecent exposure charge as she exposed her breasts in a completely see-through top as she made her way to the Melrose Tanning Company salon.

Things this week took a turn when reports surfaced that Kanye and Bianca have split, with the architect also deactivating her Instagram account.

On Monday morning TMZ claimed that the rapper and his wife have been on the outs for a while and ‘possibly’ plan to file for divorce. Bianca is thought to be with her family in Australia as she deals with the breakup.  

The model, 29, had previously shared a slew of racy images on her grid under the handle @bianca.censori, but it appears her page has now vanished.

Bianca’s blank slate on social media may be in preparation for her new and revised post-break-up look.

Only time will tell what’s next for Bianca, but with her Kardashian-esque family, she’s well positioned to join the line of Kanye’s ex’s who became a much-loved celebrity in her own right.
