Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West fueled reconciliation rumors during ‘Donda’ listening event

For months, it seemed like there was no chance of Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West giving their love another try. However, after the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star made a surprise appearance at the rapper’s Donda listening party in Chicago on Aug. 27, many are now convinced there’s hope for the couple.

While performing songs from his highly anticipated album, the rapper brought out Kardashian West, dressed in a Balenciaga Haute Couture wedding gown. The couple came face-to-face while “No Child Left Behind” played throughout the venue. As they stood in front of each other as thousands of people watched, KimYe recreated their 2014 nuptials.

As expected, the gesture fueled reconciliation rumors, which first sparked in July after Kardashian West attended West’s first two listening parties.

So far, it’s unclear if the reality star’s participation during the latest Donda event represented a literal reconciliation.

Fans think Kim and Kanye will one day remarry

With reports of Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West rebuilding their dynamic circulating through the media, many fans are curious to know what the future holds for the pair’s relationship.

While some think the couple is just maintaining a civil relationship for the sake of their four children, others suspect that the two are moving toward a reconciliation given their epic stunt at the rapper’s listening party.

In a recent Reddit discussion, fans shared their suspicions surround the former couple’s relationship.

Most suspect that the couple will model after Hollywood greats Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton and one day remarry, despite their impending divorce. Some even pointed out Kardashian’s infatuation with Taylor, noting that she once expressed admiration over the late actor’s personal life.

“This reminds me of that episode Kourt said Elizabeth Taylor got divorced and remarried and Kim said ‘Omg Id love that’ or something hahah,” one Reddit user wrote. “I totally see this happening.”

Another fan penned, “Kim is obsessed with Elizabeth Taylor & would totally do the same exact thing haha.”

Meanwhile, others are convinced KimYe’s divorce is still happening, noting that multiple media outlets have reported that the pair aren’t moving away from their divorce proceedings.
