When we learned earlier this year that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were getting divorced, reports said they remained the best of friends, which is just what celebrities say. But it turns out, this might actually be the case, as last night, Kimberly showed up to Kanye’s new album listening party in Atlanta with their four kids in tow and sister Khloe. Okay, we’re starting to like this ‘friends’ thing!

Kanye held the listening party for Donda, named after his late mother who died in 2007, at Atlanta’s Mercedes Benz Stadium Thursday night, and Kim showed up decked out from head to toe in fire-engine red.  While she may have given us mere glimpses of her night in her Instagram Stories (a red boot here, a clip of the filled stadium there), backstage footage has leaked of Kim, Kanye, the kids (North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm), and Khloe all together and smiling. 

In the video, while Kim grins from ear to ear, we see Kanye, also decked out completed in red, but with a nylon face covering, meeting with Atlanta mayor Keisha-Lance Bottoms who dubs July 22nd “Kanye West day.” Also seen is Kim’s bestie Jonathan Cheban. We then see the entire family minus Kanye walking hand-in-hand down the back corridors of the venue.

Kim and kids definitely got an earful when the listening party began, because one song in particular is rumoured to be about their relationship. On the track “Love Unconditionally” Kanye sings in the refrain, “I’m losing my family/I’m losing my family,” which many fans have interpreted as a comment on Kim and Ye’s divorce.

If true, this wouldn’t be the first time Ye has rapped about the SKIMS entrepreneur. While Kim was still married to NBA player Kris Humphries, Kanye rapped on his track “Cold,” “And I’ll admit, I had fell in love with Kim / Around the same time she had fell in love with him / Well that’s cool baby girl, do your thing / Lucky I ain’t had [Jay-Z] drop him from the team.”

Kanye also wrote a song about Kim called “My Perfect B***h” that he also played at a listening party but it never appeared on an album.

And of course who could forget his 2013 mega-hit “Bound 2” where Kim appeared alongside Kanye in the suggestive music video where they bounced along on a motorcycle?

This appearance together comes just over a month after the series finale of Keeping Up With The Kardashians where Kim broke down crying over their separation, saying she felt “like a failure” and “lonely” in the marriage, and that they were no longer fighting.
