Kanye West and wife Bianca Censori cut a glum figure in their last public photo together before their shock split was revealed.
It was recently revealed that the couple had secretly called it quits ‘weeks ago’, with the rapper, 47, reportedly ‘ready for divorce’ from the model, 29.
It is said that the Bound 2 hitmaker felt that his wife of almost two years ‘wasn’t as in to him as she was in the beginning’ of their relationship.
And it was evident that things were strained between the couple in their final public outing as they headed on a shopping trip in Tokyo on September 20.
Dressed in a typically skimpy ensemble consisting of a nude vest and cycle shorts teamed with black boots, Bianca looked downcast as she checked out clothes in a store.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori's wildest moments as a couple: A look back amid pair's split
It comes as it’s been reported that Bianca’s split from Kanye was largely influenced by the fact she couldn’t ‘ignore’ her family’s questions about the more troubling part of their relationship, sources have claimed.
On Monday morning TMZ reported that the rapper and his wife have been on the outs for a while and are ‘possibly’ planning to file for divorce.
The rap star has been in Tokyo while Bianca is believed to have returned to her native to be with her family during this tough time.
Now, insiders have claimed the pair had been ‘drifting apart,’ before a recent visit from her loved ones confirmed the end of their romance.
‘They broke up some time ago,’ a source told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Bianca started to see the relationship in a new light when her friends and family voiced concerns about the way she was dressing in public and Kanye felt that she wasn’t as into him as she was in the beginning.’
The source continued: ‘There are no hard feelings but she couldn’t ignore her family when they asked her to explain the stranger parts of their relationship. They have broken up before so there is a chance they’ll reunite.’

Bianca was pictured with her sisters Alyssia and Angelina, and mother Alexandra, in mid August after they flew in to visit her in Los Angeles.
The controversial couple were reportedly already ‘drifting,’ but everything changed after their visit.
‘She spent some time with her family and was different afterwards,’ the insider continued. ‘Kanye sensed it was coming because they have been drifting apart and people around him sense that he still wants to be with Kim.
‘Bianca definitely has other ambitions and was concerned about turning into [his ex Amber Rose]. She wants to create her own brand.’
Elsewhere, a second insider noted that Bianca still cares for the troubled rapper, adding: ‘She does care deeply for him and loves his kids, but she also knows that he has issues that she could never correct.’

The insider explained that friends believe the n beauty will walk away ‘a very rich woman’ as they noted: ‘Her friends believe that she is ready to take him for what he is worth and walk away a very rich woman as they did not sign a prenup.’
The insider added: ‘She has not been with him for weeks. She is home with her family in where she wants to be.
‘Bianca morphed into exactly what he wanted her to be. She knew that he fell for her because she was the spitting image of Kim and she felt he was still in love with her.’
Explaining that the future looks bright for the architectural designer, the insider concluded: ‘She is now known worldwide. She is recognized for her attire and will be using this to develop her own brand.’
