Kim Kardashian tolerates Kanye West when she needs to — like while supporting their four children.
During the Thursday, February 20, episode of The Kardashians, the famed exes were filmed reuniting for their 11-year-old daughter North West's performance in a Lion King concert event at the Hollywood Bowl in May 2024.
Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from Kanye West in 2021.
West and Kardashian put on a united front while backstage with North ahead of her time on stage — where she sang "I Just Can't Wait to Be King" in front of a packed audience.
While North was in the dressing room getting ready for her performance, Kardashian was nearly having a "heart attack" as she waited for her daughter's cue alongside her ex-husband.
Kanye West made a rare appearance on 'The Kardashians' while supporting his daughter North, 11.
"Her dad has been involved and he came to rehearsal," Kardashian explained during a private confessional of West, whom she shares North, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5, with.
West was in dad-manager mode at the event, as he asked to "change the graphics," to which Kardashian responded, "of course, of course."

"I already know what’s coming. That she’s not Whitney Houston. Duh! North is the moment," Kim declared. "They want to see North West on a TikTok, on a this, on anything. Because she’s a personality, a performer. And if anyone wants to hate on a child that having is having the time of their lives, ‘F--- you.'"
“It's such a proud moment as a mom to see your child have so much fun and not be nervous at all," Kardashian praised. "She's so proud of herself. She did such a great job. And anyone that is hating on a kid is just a hater — she's not there to be Mariah Carey."
