Kanye West Hanging With Model Vinetria To Make Estranged Wife Kim Kardashian Jealous: Source
Despite reports that Kanye West is dating model Vinetria, sources tell OK! that the only woman on the rapper's mind is his estranged wife – Kim Kardashian.
“Kanye is obsessed with Kim," a source tells OK!. "Since she has been hanging out with Pete Davidson, Kanye has been doing everything he can to get her attention — so it should be no surprise that days after Kim was spotted with Pete, Kanye dating rumors pop up."
As OK! previously reported, West — who has legally changed his name to Ye — was spotted sitting courtside with Vinetria at the Donda Academy basketball game in Minneapolis on Saturday, November 6. Page Six reported that the 22-year-old previously spent time with the "Gold Digger" artist in Miami last week, and she was also in attendance at his Sunday Service in Southern California.
“Turning up at his late mother's Academy debut basketball game in Minneapolis is hardly subtle. Kanye wanted to be seen, especially by Kim," continues the source. "He did the same thing a few months ago with model Irina Shayk. The problem is Kim doesn’t care."
(West and Shayk were first linked in June when they celebrated the rapper's 44th birthday in Provence, France. However, the model — who shares 4-year-old daughter Lea with ex Bradley Cooper — called things off shortly after, with a source admitting, "She likes [West] as a friend, but doesn’t want a relationship with him.")
The Yeezy designer raised eyebrows on Thursday, November 4, when he appeared on the "Drink Champs" podcast and noted that Kardashian — who he shares North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm — is "still" his wife. He also admitted he took issue with the reality star joking about their pending divorce during her stint as host on Saturday Night Live, noting, "I ain’t see the papers. We’re not even divorced."

"My kids want their parents to stay together," he admitted. "I want … us to be together.”
Despite his emotional procolomations, Kardashian continues to fuel speculation that she's dating Davidson, 27, whose company she has enjoyed several times this month.
After the pair's outings made headlines, West appeared to unfollow Kardashian on Instagram for a third time.
However, the source insists the KKW Beauty founder is unbothered by her estranged husband's actions: "She isn’t jealous. She would love for Kanye to find someone new and move on.”
