Kim Kardashian was breaking down in tears in an explosive documentary trailer about her ex-husband, Kanye West.
She could be heard getting upset during a heated argument with the controversial rapper in a video teasing the upcoming In Whose Name? documentary.
In the beginning of the trailer, which debuted on YouTube on Wednesday, showed a tense moment between Kardashian and West, who now goes by Ye, when they were still married.
The rapper admitted that he stopped taking his medication for his bipolar disorder: ‘I’m off my meds for five months now.’
While he is seen exiting her dressing room at an unknown event, Kardashian could be heard with her voice audibly shaking and seemingly sobbing as she told him: ‘Your personality was not like this a few years ago.’
The pair were previously married from 2014 to 2022 and share four children: North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm.
Their divorce proceedings and ongoing co-parenting dynamic has made headlines over the years — even back to when their marriage started breaking down in the public eye and as he continued sharing offensive social media posts years after their split.

Audio clips were stitched together with West talking and at other points, his voice was even yelling: ‘It’s a calling by the universe. Never tell me I’m going to wake up one day and have nothing.’
Then, the then-couple could be seen sitting on a couch together, facing each other.
After what appeared to be another tense conversation, she calmly said to him, ‘We could talk about that later, but…’ before he interrupts her: ”It ain’t no but.’
‘When I went to the hospital and one of the ideas was to do a church,’ he narrated alongside clips of his Easter Sunday Service performance at the 2019 Coachella Music Festival, where he appeared to be crying as Chance the Rapper consoled him.
‘Yeah, I was just being embarrassed or ashamed to cry, man,’ he narrated alongside more clips of his activities over the years, including making music, filming artistic videos, spending time with his young children and designing fashion.
‘When we’re at the prisons, professing how Jesus can set you free, it’s true,’ an audio clip of a sermon played over clips of inmates in prison during church service.
‘Thank you, Jesus. I decided to run,’ the rapper said as a clip of West holding up a sign that read, ‘YE4PRESIDENT,’ flashed across the screen.
In the trailer, West could be seen with their kids and traveling with their eldest daughter North West when she was a toddler.
The theme of the trailer followed West as he stopped taking medication for bipolar disorder and as the then-couple’s relationship deteriorated
Though Kardashian was in the trailer, her appearances were brief. Throughout the trailer, however, the Grammy-winning musician featured his young children continuously

Audio clips of West preaching played over clips of him creating art and spending time with his children. In one clip, he was at a recording studio with his daughter North and son Saint
Years later, he was also seen with his youngest daughter Chicago in another clip
Between short videos of him and his children, West could be seen in creative meetings
Many of his recent controversies were not included in the trailer. Preceding the most controversial ones, one clip showed when he declared his presidential run and held up a sign. He was also notably still wearing his wedding ring
During this time, West got more vocal about his religious beliefs. There were clips shown of his Sunday Service events and also a short video of him spending time with inmates at a prison
One clip showed him getting teary-eyed at his Easter Sunday Service event at Coachella in 2019
He held sermons of his own during that time, holding exclusive, spiritual gatherings to perform gospel music alongside his choir
One clip showed him wearing one of his controversial fashion designs
At one point in the explosive trailer, he was heard yelling: ‘I almost killed my daughter.’
Going back to how he stopped taking his medication, he was also heard declaring: ‘I’d rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it.’
‘It’s a sad dream,’ Kardashian’s voice made one final appearance as West continued to vent.
‘They’re killing our ability to think outside of the box. And I’m almost like a masochist,’ he said.
‘I like whatever I want, when I want. It’s worse.’
In the concluding clip, he proclaimed: ‘You know the best thing about being an artist and bipolar? Anything you do and say is an art piece.’
The trailer showed clips preceding when West got married to Bianca Censori, so it is unclear if the documentary will feature the 30-year-old Yeezy architect-turned-model.
He previously opened up about begin diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016 after being hospitalized for a psychiatric emergency.
One of West’s passions is creative direction and fashion design as seen in montages of him posing with hundreds of sneakers from his time working with Adidas and making Yeezy designs
The trailer also included more clips of the rapper putting together more of his designs with sneak peeks of his process
As the trailer went on, West was also seen traveling frequently
Here he was seen at some of his invite-only gatherings, which featured gospel music performed by himself and his Sunday Service Choir
Later, another clip showed him during a quiet moment in his life as he traveled alone
The trailer was riddled with artistic cinematography showing West around the world and even posing in the middle of the street in Paris
However, earlier this year, West said he was misdiagnosed and has now been diagnosed as autistic, which is not a mental illness.
The upcoming documentary was directed and produced by Nico Ballesteros, a filmmaker who started working as an intern for West at age 18 and filmed him over six years.
The summary of the trailer read: ‘Over six years, 18-year-old Nico Ballesteros captured an unfiltered portrait of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, offering unprecedented access into the private and public life of one of the most controversial figures in modern culture.
‘The film charts Ye’s meteoric rise to becoming the richest Black man in American history and the choices, contradictions, and collapses that have since redefined his legacy,’ the description continued.
‘Featuring appearances by Kim Kardashian and other influential figures from Ye’s inner circle, the documentary explores the razor’s edge between creative genius and self-destruction, revealing the cost of freedom in a fame-obsessed world.’
The documentary is set for release on September 19 and, according to Ballesteros, will premiere in ‘thousands’ of AMC Theaters.
