Power Struggle! Kim Kardashian And Kanye West Battling Over Baby & Their Public Lives
Aug. 23 2013, Published 5:01 p.m. ET
Kanye West may have proudly debuted the first photo of North West on her grandmother’s talk show, but in doing so RadarOnline.com has learned that he and Kim Kardashian are in an intense power struggle over their daughter and the public lives.
“Kim is getting really upset that Kanye has been taking over and making all of the public announcements about baby North,” a source close to the reality star told RadarOnline.com.
“She hasn’t been able to do anything. She didn’t announce that she was pregnant. She didn’t get to show off the baby first. Kanye is doing everything and it’s causing a huge power struggle between the two of them.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Kanye is trying to control Kim now that they have a child together.
“Kanye wants to make sure that every single aspect of Kim’s life is now handled the way he wants it to be,” the source said.

This is especially distressing for Kim because she craves the spotlight and being shut away from the photographers and fans that she loves is difficult for her.
“Kim likes having her picture taken and she knows that she has to do that in order to stay relevant and so she still keeps in touch with paps who can take her picture,” the source said.
“It is never a surprise when a photographer gets a picture of Kim, and so the two times that she’s been with the baby, at the doctor’s appointment and at Kanye’s grandfather’s funeral, and been photographed are most likely because she has been tipping them off and this is infuriating her baby daddy.”
The source said it’s a tough time for Kim and Kanye as they try and handle their personal and professional lives.
“Kim wants to be in charge and so does Kanye and they’re constantly butting heads. She is a really strong woman and just because she had a baby with Kanye doesn’t mean she doesn’t know what she wants to do with her life and her daughter’s life.”
