The pair kept a distance between each other as they separately waited for a car to pick them up.
The rapper concealed his face with his white coat, while Bianca could be seen talking in front of him.
Meanwhile on Friday young Parisians expressed concern at the behaviour of Bianca in the French capital after she was seen wearing a revealing outfit made only from tape.
It follows fears that the n architect, 29, is being ‘controlled’ by her husband as she steps out in a range of skimpy outfits.
The outfit, one of Bianca’s most revealing to date, saw her wear bandage-like halter suspenders that only covered her nipples while out with her stylist Gadir Rajab.
She had on a pair of beige low-rise pedal pushers, constructed from strips of beige tape wrapped around her legs, with slight gaps opening up as she walked toward the restaurant.
Bianca’s loved ones have expressed their fears after she married Kanye in December 2022 – with some going as far as staging an intervention, while her father Leo was reportedly keen to confront the rapper over his daughter’s X-rated clothing.
Speaking to on Friday some Parisians deemed her outfits to be ‘worrying’ and claimed Kanye’s ‘publicity stunts’ were both ‘strange’ and ‘dangerous.’
Sarra Sean, a 20-year-old linguist, said: ‘She’s free to do what she wants with her own body, but it’s a bit weird.
‘I’m not that into celebrities, but there clearly has to be some concern if a famous person is acting strangely. Some of Kanye’s political statements have been very worrying lately.’
San Zaya, 18, a student, said both Bianca Censori and Kanya West had a responsibility to ‘be a good example to young people.’
She explained: ‘Kanya in particular is world famous, and a very influential artist, so anything he does is copied everywhere.
‘People can dress how they look, but if they are being forced to behave in a certain way for the cameras, then that can be very dangerous.
‘These two are followed massively on social media. I like Kanye West’s music, but I don’t like some of the publicity that has surrounded him lately.’
There had been claims, following an outing in Italy last year, that Ms Censori’s risqué outfits might see her arrested for public indecency, but Paris lawyers have since said ‘this is a ridiculous idea.’
A source working for city prosecutors said: ‘Paris is the world fashion capital – nobody risks prosecution for their fashion choices.’
