Kanye West Reportedly Orders His Wife Bianca Censori to Not Speak in Public

Kanye West Says 'Fake Children' Actors Are Placed in His Home to Sexualize His Children in Leaked Interview Footage

Have you ever heard Bianca Censori speak? Not many have. Reportedly it’s due to Kanye West not allowing her to talk.

According to Page Six, Ye not only ordered Censori to “never speak”; but she also must wear whatever clothes he suggests.

A source also stated that Censori “has no mind of her own anymore” and must eat what Ye demands and work out despite Kanye never going to the gym.

Since her discreet nuptials to Kanye West earlier this year, Kanye’s wife has transitioned from a low-key existence to the forefront of media attention. She has made headlines with her daring see-through ensembles and candid moments like the two of them aboard a boat in Italy. Despite this public exposure, little is known about Ye’s newest muse. Interestingly, Bianca Censori hails from an infamous family in Australia known for their involvement in criminal activities.

As reported by the Daily Mail, Kanye West’s spouse has an uncle named Eris Censori, notorious as the “Al Capone of Melbourne” in their home country. Furthermore, her father, Elia “Leo” Censori, has previously faced convictions about possessing a prohibited heroin import and a loaded pistol.

Bianca’s eldest uncle, Edmondo, also known as “Eddie Capone,” has his share of convictions, including charges of police assault and theft. These brothers, linked to activities ranging from gambling and smuggling to murder, migrated to Australia from Italy with their parents in the 1960s.

Bianca Censori’s mother, Alexandra, and her two sisters, Angelina and Alyssias, reside with their father in Australia. Growing up, the former Yeezy employee enjoyed the luxuries afforded by her father’s wealth in the affluent Ivanhoe suburb before moving to a £1.5 million residence.

Bianca was in the midst of pursuing a Master’s in Architecture and Design at a prestigious Australian university when the Donda rapper approached her to join his team.

A 26-year-old man was arrested Wednesday in connection with a cell phone video taken Sunday which showed him smashing the back windshield of a woman’s car while her children sat in the car. The woman, Nikki Bullock, 23 and her girlfriend were working making Uber deliveries when they were hit from the back. The crazed motorist then pulled a gun on the woman and then assaulted her in front of her children in Philadelphia.

The motorist hit the woman with his helmet while her children screamed in the back. She knocked over the bike before grabbing one of her screaming children.

Cody Heron, 26, is charged with possession of an instrument of crime, recklessly endangering another person and aggravated assault, the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office said.

“A firearm can be seen falling from the defendant’s waistband before he retrieves the weapon and threatens the victim with it after she confronts him on the street,” the DA said. “Heron head butts her during the confrontation before returning to his vehicle and fleeing the scene.”

“I’m glad my kids are OK. I’m glad nobody got hurt,” Bullock said. “It could have gone way worse than it did. I’m just glad that video is not me dying on the internet.”
