Kim Kardashian is no stranger to headlines about her controversial ex-husband Kanye West.
But the reality star, who shares four young children with the rapper, has found the latest shock claims about her former spouse ‘demoralizing,’ and is ‘frustrated’ at the constant controversy, insiders have claimed.
West, 46, is being sued for sexual harassment by his ex-assistant Lauren Pisciotta, 35, who has accused him of sending her graphic videos and messages, as well as hounding her about the size of her ex-boyfriends’ genitals. West has denied the claims.
Kardashian, 43, is said to be ‘disappointed’ and is finding it increasingly ‘trying’ to deal with the constant troubling headlines about her ex, who used anti-Semitic lyrics on his latest album and declared he would go ‘death con 3 on Jewish people.’
‘As a woman and as a mother of two young girls, to hear about these allegations of sexual harassment, is demoralizing for Kim,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively.

Pisciotta, 35, is suing West, 46, for sexual harassment, breach of contract and wrongful termination
‘She has had to deal with his racist rants, his mental health concerns, his porn venture, and everything else. She is frustrated.’
The SKIMS founder married West in 2014 and the former couple have daughters North, ten, and Chicago, six, as well as sons Saint, eight, and Psalm, five.
The insider said Kardashian is desperately ‘hoping’ that the latest firestorm surrounding her ex is not true.
‘She is hoping it isn’t true, but if it ends up being true, she will deal with it as much as she can behind closed doors,’ they continued.
‘She is disappointed with the man she was once in love with. He is the father of her kids and that will never change and goes a long way, but to deal with all this extra nonsense is as trying as one would expect.
‘She is not happy that she is having to deal with something Kanye does day in and day out.’
Pisciotta is suing West for sexual harassment, breach of contract and wrongful termination, and is also suing him and his affiliated Yeezy companies for fraud, unpaid wages, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
In the bombshell lawsuit, she claimed she was hired as West’s ‘Executive Assistant/Personal Assistant’ in July 2021 with an annual salary of $1million, on the condition she quit OnlyFans and was available to him ’24-7,’ which she reportedly accepted.

She also claimed the controversial star hounded her with explicit messages and, in one incident, masturbated in front of her.
The filing, reported by TMZ, claims West allegedly wrote in one bizarre text message: ‘See my problem is I be wanting to f*** but then after I f*** I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f****ed while I’m f****ing them,’ before adding: ‘Then I want her to cheat on me’.
The site also cited West continued with a series of ‘REALLY vulgar’ communications to his then-employee.
One text sent by West and featured in the court docs by Pisciotta, according to the outlet, read: ‘Is my d*** racist? It is. This f***ing racist d*** of mine. I going to beat this f***ing racist d*** for being f***ing racist.’
It continued: ‘I’m going to stare at pictures of white woman with Black a**es and beat the s*** out of my racist d*** … beating the s*** out of his big Black c***.’
Asides from the disturbing texts, Pisciotta, who said she had worked in the music industry for 15 years prior to working with West, also claimed he would call her under the guise of work-related matters only then to masturbate while on the phone with her.
In the lawsuit, Pisciotta claimed she was hired as West’s ‘Executive Assistant/Personal Assistant’ with an annual salary of $1million, on the condition she quit OnlyFans
West, who is married to Bianca Censori, clapped back at the ‘baseless’ allegations via his legal representative and accused Pisciotta of ‘blackmail and extortion’
Her time working for the musician ended in October 2022, one month after she claimed she was promoted to Chief of Staff for West’s various companies and was informed she would receive an additional $3million – which West allegedly never delivered.
West, who has used the moniker Ye since 2021, clapped back at the ‘baseless’ allegations via his legal representative on Tuesday and accused Pisciotta of ‘blackmail and extortion.’
He also claimed she was fired due to ‘lascivious and unhinged’ conduct and had demanded a whopping $4 million salary.
‘In response to these baseless allegations, Ye will be filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta, who actively pursued him sexually to coerce employment and other material benefits, then engaged in blackmail and extortion when her advances were rejected,’ a statement read.
His rep also alleged that Pisciotta stole the star’s phone in order to try to delete evidence that would contradict claims in her own lawsuit.
