Kanye West Comes Back To Instagram With Throwbacks Of Iconic Celeb Couples

Kanye West has been MIA from Twitter and Instagram since May 2017, following a low-profile stint after being hospitalised for exhaustion in 2016.

But now, the rapper and designer is back to say Happy Valentine’s Day to wife Kim Kardashian on her favourite social media platform – Instagram!

Kanye posted what appears to be a hand-written card laid on a worktop to his Instagram feed on Valentine’s Day, and then proceeded to post pictures of iconic celebrity couples – which took him 8 hours in total.

Starting with Madonna and Sean Penn, Kanye posted 52 couples – including Kim’s parents Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner, finishing off with two pictures of himself with Kim Kardashian.

Let’s take a look at who Kanye picked…

Celebrity couples who are no longer together

Many of the couples he posted have since broken up, which is super awkward - especially on Valentine’s Day, when people are likely trying to forget their exes.

Notably, Kanye didn’t post any of his own exes.
