Last week Kim Kardashian’s quest for flawlessness appeared set to continue in earnest, when reports surfaced that the 34-year-old reality star – who is almost six months pregnant with her second child with husband Kanye West – is planning on undergoing a £65k surgery makeover after her son is born.
But insiders tell Closer that when Kanye, 38, got wind of her plans, he angrily vetoed them, citing it as the one thing that could tear them apart – and gave her an ultimatum: surgery or their marriage.
The rapper is fiercely anti-surgery, since the tragic death of his mum Donda, who died aged 58 in 2007 following complications after a breast reduction, tummy tuck and liposuction.
A source says: “Kanye went ballistic at Kim when he found out she’d been consulting with surgeons. He’s hurt she didn’t tell him, and has banned her from having the ops, saying if she goes ahead with it, their marriage could be over. Kim is an emotional wreck and keeps crying. She feels at her most insecure about her body when she’s pregnant.”
