Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were reportedly fighting prior to his November 21 hospitalization, and the rapper is additionally at odds with the whole Kardashian clan.

Since Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint of $10 million in jewelry on October 3, life has "just been hell," according to Us, and her marriage to West strained because he was "completely freaked out."
"The mere thought of his wife being taken from him was too much -- it was like his mother's death," the source said, referencing how the robbery occurred around the nine-year anniversary of his mother Donda's passing.
"Seeing Kim close to death did a major number on him. It sent him into a tailspin."
West, 39, was hospitalized last week because he was allegedly acting erratically and struggling with extreme exhaustion from work and his personal demons. West reportedly hadn't slept "in about a week" and was "having difficulty identifying what was real."
West was juggling his original 63-date Saint Pablo tour as well as his traumatized wife, who was still reeling from the robbery.
"The trauma of the incident made her more hesitant to do things. Of course it strained their relationship, because she hadn't seen him," a source close to 36-year-old Kardashian explained.
"She felt like now she needed [Kanye] to be stable and her rock instead of the other way around. Kanye's so used to getting Kim's constant support and coding, but it's always about Kanye."
However, Kardashian still set up camp in West's private hospital room at UCLA Medical Center, according to the magazine, and has remained by his side.
"Kanye's behavior took a huge toll on their marriage," said an insider. "But Kim feels relieved he is getting the help he needs. She thinks this is what it will take to save him -- and help their marriage."
But the drama doesn't stop there, as "the whole family's pissed at Kanye and they have been for a while," a source told x17. "This all started before he had his breakdown, before he was hospitalized. I'm not sure if it's just his erratic behavior the past few months or what, but they all have a beef with him."
West has made headlines in recent weeks for ranting about Jay Z, Beyonce and Hillary Clinton, as well as suddenly canceling 21 tour dates. He reportedly had to be restrained at the time of his hospitalization for psychiatric evaluation.
