Kris Jenner ‘Doesn’t Believe a Word’ of Kanye West’s Recent Public Apology: ‘Too Little, Too Late’

Kanye West hopes to make amends with his former in-laws, the Kardashians, sources say, but family matriarch Kris Jenner isn’t having it.

The controversial rapper recently apologized for his antisemitic behavior and hurting people he loves in a lengthy letter, claiming a car accident caused a brain injury that triggered his unhinged behavior, per Daily Mail.

But according to insiders, Kris is convinced Kanye, the father of daughter Kim Kardashian’s four children, can’t be trusted.

“It’s a very delicate situation because Kris needs to play nice with Kanye for Kim’s sake so it’s not something she’s going to address publicly,” says a source.

“But it’s no secret among Kris’ friends that she doesn’t believe a word of this apology tour.”

“She’s a total mama bear and she hasn’t forgotten the hell Kanye has put her daughter through, or the way his behavior has affected the whole family, herself included, over the years.”

“It’s not just the offensive comments, it’s the constant chaos he’s caused that Kim still has to deal with to this day.”

Kim, 45, and Kanye, 48, divorced in 2021 after seven years of marriage, and she recently told Complex of her ex, “We’ll always be family.” According to their divorce settlement, the former couple share joint legal and physical custody of their children — North, 12, Saint, 10, Chicago, 8, and Psalm, 6 — although they mostly live with Kim.

In May 2025, Kim considered seeking full custody after Kanye called her a “sex worker,” praised Adolf Hitler and made a string of antisemitic comments.

In his letter, Kanye also wrote, according to The Guardian: “I said and did things I deeply regret. Some of the people I love the most, I treated the worst.”

But sources say Kris isn’t buying his mea culpa. “Kris just can’t forgive him and certainly not just because he makes a public apology,” adds the insider. “She would love for Kanye to get better and for this to be the start of him taking a new path, but at this point it’s hard to take him at his word.”

“He’s apologized plenty of times before. It doesn’t help his case that he’s got a new album coming out soon. Naturally, people are going to be suspicious about how sincere this is and what his motives really are.”

“Kris hopes for Kanye’s sake that he’s being genuine, but he’s not changing her mind. As far as she’s concerned, this is too little, too late.”
