One of the messages from Pete read, “I’ve decided that I’m not gonna let you treat us this way anymore and I’m done being quiet. Grow the f—k up.” Pete also went on to defend Kim, writing that she is “literally the best mother” he has ever met.

In a separate text message to Kanye, Pete pleaded, “What you are doing to your family is dangerous and going to scar them for life. Please handle these matters privately bro I beg you.”

Following this interaction, Kanye took to Instagram on March 14 to share a photo of his daughter North West‘s backpack, which was decorated with enamel pins of Kanye, Kim and an alien. The rapper wrote, “This was on my daughters back pack when I was ‘allowed’ to see her last week.”

Kim, who rarely engages with Kanye’s recent social media posts, commented, “Please stop with this narrative, you were just here this morning picking up the kids for school.”
