Kim Kardashian and Kanye West marriage 'effectively over' after his latest decision

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are seemingly accepting that their marriage is 'effectively over' as they have 'no plans' to start living together any time soon.

The 40-year-old Keeping Up With The Kardashians star has continued to live in Los Angeles with their four children while rapper Kanye, 43, stays at his ranch in Wyoming.

The couple have been living "separate lives" for some months now, after Kanye went on a Twitter rant about Kim and her mother, Kris Jenner, in the build up to the US presidential elections.

Since then, Kim and Kanye have had limited time together, despite sharing a 'show of strength' on Instagram with them posing together at the ranch.

That was nearly three months ago and they have barely been together since then and Kanye isn't planning to leave the midwest for LA anytime soon.

 A source has told Hollywood Life: 

Kanye is taking time and space to work on himself and is spending a lot of his time in Wyoming. It sounds like he has no plans to return to LA anytime soon, at least not full-time, but Kim is okay with that. He has an amazing support system around him which does help put Kim at ease.

Kanye is reportedly at his "happiest" when living in Wyoming, with a source saying: 

[He’s] in a better place when he’s there and Kim needs to be in LA and wants the kids with her. She does her best to keep their lives normal. They communicate daily and he’s in touch often on FaceTime and also the phone with the kids. Right now, Kanye is focusing on Kanye while Kim holds down everything in LA and keeps the kids’ lives normal.

The update come less than a month after it was reported that they were "struggling" to keep their marriage together.
