His wife, Kim Kardashian, jetted off to New York City early Monday morning and is expected to make an appearance at the Angel Gala in honour of her late father Robert Kardashian this week.
“He’s just exhausted,” another source told Us of why Kanye pulled the plug on his remaining shows.
“He’s been working around the clock on fashion design, both his own line and the Adidas line. He’s a notorious workaholic … so balancing both that work — which is extremely important to him — and the rigors of the tour every night, it really wore him out.
“All the time spent away from his family has been a stress on him, as well. They are the most important to him. Obviously he’s a professional and wants to give his fans a great experience, and I think his gut was telling him not to extend the tour through the end of the year, but he decided to push through. He doesn’t want to give his fans anything less than the best.”
On top of the stress of dealing with Kim’s robbery in Paris, it’s also the anniversary of his beloved mum Donda’s death in 2007 due to “surgical complications”, aged just 58.
