Kanye West - the renowned American rapper and entrepreneur - has reportedly purchased a lavish $35 million mansion in the prestigious Beverly Park gated community of Beverly Hills.
The move comes amid mounting tensions with his wife, Bianca Censori, who is said to have issued an ultimatum demanding a permanent home in Los Angeles.
The sprawling estate, which spans an impressive 11 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms, is described as a veritable oasis of luxury. According to reports, the mansion features a range of high-end amenities, including private gardens, a resort-style pool, an entertainment pavilion, and even a tennis court.
Sources close to the couple have revealed that the decision to purchase the Beverly Hills property was largely driven by Censori’s desire to settle down in Los Angeles.
Insiders claim that she grew frustrated with the couple’s constant traveling and shifting plans, expressing a strong preference for establishing a stable home base in the city she loves.
“The moving around and the constant changing of plans is driving her up the wall,” a source told In Touch. “She demanded they get a home base. L.A. is where she wants to be. She loves it there and has a huge network of friends. Being halfway around the world was very lonely for her.”
Reports suggest that Censori’s dissatisfaction with their nomadic lifestyle led to frequent complaints, including expressing that she felt “held hostage” by her husband’s refusal to settle down.
These frustrations reportedly prompted West to make the significant purchase, though it remains unclear if he intends to live at the mansion with Censori.
“Spending this kind of money on a house right now was not in his plan, he’s 100 percent doing it for Bianca,” the source added.
“Of course, it still remains to be seen if he will really deliver on this promise, and if he goes back on it, chances are high she will walk. She has the patience of a saint, but it’s not endless.”
Despite the extravagant nature of the purchase, reports last month suggested that Kanye had no intention of living with his wife on the property. The purchase was allegedly financed through a combination of pension funds, risky loans from mortgage lenders, and other financial resources.
