Kanye West’s family is said to be ‘upset’ following his concerning Twitter rant where he claimed that his wife Kim Kardashian tried to ‘lock him up’.
The rapper launched into a lengthy social media tirade hours after he held his first campaign rally last weekend following his announcement to run for US president.
Addressing the latest updates on this morning’s Lorraine, showbiz presenter Ross King said: ‘We were seeing a lot of tweets from Kanye.
‘He has now deleted a lot of them and has replaced it with one tweet that says he’s got a new album coming out on Friday, so again, it just gets more and more bizarre.
‘Some of the tweets that were deleted talked about he was accusing Kim of trying to get him to a mental hospital…’
He went and claimed: ‘What we’re hearing is the family is obviously upset about Kanye’s remarks and his behaviour as well, wanting something to be done.
‘But also, I’m hearing sources saying they feel that if help is needed, he needs to ask for it himself. It’s a very sad situation.’
Kim is yet to publicly speak out about her husband Kanye’s run for US president, prompting fans to question her silence.
During his first rally, Kanye notably said he would be at peace if Kim, 39, filed for divorce because she agreed not to abort their first daughter North.
‘Even if my wife wants to divorce me after this speech, she brought North into the world, even when I didn’t want to. She stood up and she protected that child,’ Kanye told the audience.
Metro.co.uk has contacted Kim’s rep for comment.
Lorraine airs weekdays at 9am on ITV.
