Kim Kardashian was seen heading out for ice cream in Calabasas, California on Monday evening amid a very difficult time for her family.

The reality TV star kept her head down as she wore a fur vest with ripped leather slacks, which must have given PETA a headache.

The 44-year-old siren had her black hair pulled back as she was made up nicely in plum tones with black eyeliner.

The SKIMS founder was comforting herself with a large scoop of ice cream from Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream as she was seen with friend Natalie Halcro. 

This sighting comes just after she was reportedly considering changing her custody agreement with ex-husband Kanye West.

It was claimed Kim was upset after the rapper released a song featuring their eldest daughter, North West, without her approval.

According to TMZ, Kardashian is seriously debating taking West, 47 – who now goes by Ye – to court to request a judge strip him of joint legal custody.

The former couple, who married in 2014, settled their divorce in 2022, agreeing to joint physical and legal custody of their four children.

Their kids are North, 11, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and five-year-old Psalm.

Physical custody is reportedly not an issue, as Kanye rarely sees his children, and Kim still wants them to have a good relationship with their father.

However, decision-making regarding the children has become a point of contention, TMZ’s report said.

The former couple’s divorce agreement states they must attend a private hearing with a judge if conflicts arise regarding their children.

Kim requested an emergency hearing with their lawyers, a mediator, and a judge after learning Kanye planned to release a song featuring North and rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

Although Kanye skipped the meeting, he reportedly agreed not to release the track, titled ‘Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine’.

However, the rapper released the song on X the following day, declaring men ‘make the final decision’. 

He also shared a text exchange with Kim, in which she opposed their daughter’s involvement with Combs, who is currently facing legal issues.

Kim apparently texted Kanye: ‘I asked you at the time if I can trademark her name. You said yes. When she’s 18, it goes to her. So stop.

‘I sent paperwork over so she wouldn’t be in the Diddy song to protect her.’

Kanye responded by asking Kim to ‘amend’ the legal papers or risk ‘going to war’.

He added: ‘And neither of us will recover from the public fallout. You’re going to have to kill me.’

Kanye later posted a lengthy rant on X, accusing the ‘Kardashian mob’ of restricting his parental rights and likening their custody arrangement to ‘visitation’ in ‘jail’.

An insider told Page Six: ‘Kim’s priority is the well-being and safety of her children and to protect them from being around Kanye’s controversial behavior.’

Kim and Kanye were married between 2014 and 2022 and they are parents to North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, six, and Psalm, five.

This comes afterOJ Simpson’s estate has rejected Kim’s $15,000 offer to purchase her late father Robert Kardashian’s inscribed Bible, according to its administrator Malcolm LaVergne.

Reality TV veteran Kim reportedly approached Mr LaVergne in an attempt to secure the Bible before it went to auction.

But the estate apparently opted to proceed with the public sale rather than accepting her offer – with the book currently listed online with a bid of $9,800.

The book contains a handwritten note from Robert Kardashian to Simpson.

Mr LaVergne told People: “The amount is why I had no choice, because why would I spend $15,000 of estate money – why would I spend $15,000 in attorney’s fees – to sell it to Kim for $15,000?

“That’s a zero-sum game. That’s a bad business model. If Kim had offered $150,000 for it, we would’ve been in court getting this approved outside of the auction.”

He added: “She may even get it cheaper than the 15 grand, so who knows.”

The Bible carries an inscription dated 18 June 1994, the day after Simpson was arrested and accused of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.

Robert Kardashian’s note says: “O.J., this book will help. God loves and he will speak to you with his words. Read this book every day. God has a definite plan for your life. You are his child and he will use you again. I love you and God loves you.”

Robert Kardashian, who was 59 when he died of oesophageal cancer in 2003, was a close friend of Simpson’s and served on his defence team during the 1995 trial.
